Lately


I promise that we will start including pictures of the parents in the next few posts... You can, however, tell who is at the center of everything we do each day, and for good reason.  These past few months haven't brought us too much excitement just watching Ava's hair grow is about the highlight of it all.  The other day we dressed her up for church in her cute frilly shirt and cute new pink shoes and took a look at how much older she had gotten, in what seemed to be overnight.


I know that every parent says this, but we feel like Ava is the smartest and cutest baby ever.  I have highlighted some of the evidence we have gathered:

1) She loves to climb up in her crib and throw her pacifier out (no other baby has ever done that right)

2) She speaks in languages we can't yet understand in noises that obviously mean she has something important on her mind

3)  she screams loudly at night when she has to go to bed because she knows that mom and dad are probably watching vampire diaries (a show she has watched since in the womb)

4) She has ridden a horse at the grocery store with very little help from mom

5) She has chosen not to have any teeth yet because she knows once she gets them she will have to brush them

6) She prefers not to eat real food too often because it is too messy

7) She loves the camera and prefers to pose when she is looking her best

8) She loves her mom and dad more than anything else


This toy came from a friend in the ward and she was absolutely enthralled with it for about 10 minutes, she's not quite sure how it works yet, but the complexity of it all has captured her attention.


She doesn't look as excited as she usually does, probably because she prefers to be riding in the Kentucky derby on the rose winning horse.
