Cute little stories...

Just a few little funnies to share!

Every morning after I fix Ava's hair, I always make her turn around and let me see her. I always tell her "Oh, how pretty!". A few mornings ago, while I was fixing my hair, she came into the bathroom:
Ava: "mommy fixing hair"
Me: "yes"
Ava: "mommy so pretty"
Those little brains really are sponges! She remembers EVERYTHING!

After dinner one night we went out to buy a birthday present at Target. As we were walking in Ava saw the moon. She said "I see moon!" When we came back out after shopping, she looked up in the sky and said "where's the moon?" Dave said "it must be hiding"...I said "let's look for it". All of a sudden Ava exclaims "PEEK A BOO!" Yep, the moon was hiding and it was all a game for her!

Big Girl Changes...

We have made a lot of changes around here lately... Ava is growing up, she's not a baby anymore :( So, we are getting her into the "big girl" routines. No more high chair - she sits in a booster chair at the table. She can even drink out of an open top cup... wow!

Here are a few pictures of her eating big girl tacos...she ate 3 tacos!

Why we LOVE spring!

The spring weather has been teasing us over the past few weeks...we took advantage of this great weather to grill out!

Ava loves to help and she followed her daddy around all night while he grilled...even helped him clean the grill :)

Cuddles with Lily

This is a HUGE milestone for our dog, Lily...she growls more at Ava than at the doorbell ringing :) Just recently though, she has decided that maybe cuddling with Ava is just as nice as cuddling with me!

Sorry...

Ok, I'm a slacker and I totally admit it. I promise to be back soon with more pictures and stories of what a precious "little girl" Ava is turning into!
