I can't get enough of you, baby!

Well, we're back home after a weekend trip to AL! Here's a quick summary. We went for a wedding, and the best part of it all was the time we spent with family! Ava had a blast with all of her baby cousins. I adore my sweet niece, and I wish I could see her more often. Doesn't it look like she loves me, too? At least she does until she's hungry. :) Ava was extremely free with the kisses this weekend. She licked anyone's face who wanted it..and some who probably didn't! While the plane ride wasn't her first, she did have two other firsts: a blueberry muffin at the wedding reception (as seen in the pic) and a Cracker Barrel biscuit. I'm afraid she's gonna be a carb addict like her mommy! Well, hope you all are doing well. We love you!

Party!

Well, guys...I've become quite the pro at sitting up. I can now sit up as long as I want without falling over. Very impressive, I know. :) In learning to sit up, I have discovered how much fun it is to ransack my room by emptying my toy basket. Here is the pic to prove it! The other two pics are just me having fun...one of them is me before my first VBS! It was loads of fun.

I'll be 8 months old this week, and I think I'm adjusting to life pretty well. Another great thing coming up this week is my second plane ride. I'm going to see Nanna, Pops, Aunt Loren, Uncle Craig, and Brenna. I'm really excited about that.

Hope you're all doing well...

Hugs and Kisses, Ava

Time flies when you're having fun!!

Wow, guys! As crazy as it may seem, I turned 7 months old on Saturday. I'm now more mobile than ever. As a matter of fact, mom sat me on the floor one day last week. Her main concern was that I didn't fall over and bump my head, so she surrounded me with pillows. She ran outside to turn on the sprinkler. When she got back in--to her surprise--I had rolled and scooted my way right over to her magazine. I grabbed a page, ripped it out, and then proceeded to wad it up. I just love magazines, so I couldn't resist! Also, my sweet Nanna just left last week after a FUN visit. I wish Pops could have come, too, but he had to work. Then this morning, Daddy surprised Mommy with a BEAUTIFUL bouquet of flowers from me. :) He really made today a special first Mother's Day. Mommy says she's super blessed with a great husband. Me? I just love him 'cause he's fun to play with! Hope you all are doing well!

Lots o' love,

Ava

Strawberry Fields

Just thought we'd post a pic of Ava in strawberries. She loves the hat!

Bathing Suit Beauty

Here are a couple pics that I took today. She's about to get that whole sitting up thing down pat! :) As for the bathing suit...is that not the cutest thing you've ever seen?!

First Post

I'm so excited! I've successfully created a blog! I thought this would be an easier way for you all to see updated pics of Ava. If you're reading this, consider yourself special b/c I've put a protection on it so not just anyone can view it. Here's a pic from today!
