Getting Bigger
No matter how hard I contemplate I cannot put my finger on were the last month has gone. Ainsley turned 15 weeks this past Thursday and continues shine light in our lives everyday. The last month or so has been very busy around the Braun household. On October 15th Ainsley had her first trip to the pumpkin patch and she had such a good time sleeping right through it in her snuggly carrier. 
On October 19th we had Ainsley dedicated at our new church Sojourn Community Church. She wore a new dress I made her for the occasion and waited to spit up on it until after the presentaion. That same day she took her new voice out for a test drive. Although she has been giving on little coos and chirps for about a week, during lunch she hammed it up good for the grandparents. Since then she always has so much to say. Wonder where she got that from?

Since then she always has so much to say. Wonder where she got that from?The biggest adventure this month was Ainsley' her first plane ride! We travel to Philli for Apple Butter Days at Wynnorr Farm. This annual tradition of joining together to make apple butter has expanded and for the past couple of years has served as a mini family reunion. This was both everyone's first trip, but will not be the last. Ainsley was such a trooper with the airplane travel and she made hardly a peep either way. First stop on the trip was to introduce Ainsley to her Great Grandmom and Great Granddad Webster. She put on an extra special show for them cooing, squeeking, and throwing away smiles. It was an amazingly special time to share with our family. Saturday was Apple Butter day full of apples, family, apples, rain, and did I say apples? Total production of quart sized apple butter was in the 170 range with 50+ quart jars of applesauce. 
At the end of the evening while having smores and hot dogs we dressed Ainsley up in her halloween costume: a catapillar! Although we did not get to take her out on Halloween for formal trick-or-treating she did get to dress up for her Pa and Nana!
The first weekend in November I was able to get Ainsley weighed while Morgan and I were out shopping. She was up to 15 lbs even after filling her diaper!! She is doing so well eating and looks like such a healthy baby. We pray this continues as we head into the winter weather. Over this last week we have started putting Ainsley into her jumperoo several times through out the day. So far they are becoming fast favorite! She is still learning the finner points of pushing up with her feet but even when she is just hanging out she is holding her head up, looking around in every direction, and really checking things out. 
I posted some highlight pictures here but I have opened a Flickr account with more pictures which I will try to keep updated however I am still trying to figure out how to post things so anyone can see them. I will post the address soon (hopefully)
