Our little fish...

Our pool has finally started to warm up enough that we're all finally willing to get in with Ava. She loves the water!

Since the tri, Ava has taken to wearing my swim cap. She grabs our hand, puts the cap in it, then signs "hat," and waits to have it put on. The other day she wore it for almost 20 minutes before I took it off. She was a sweaty-headed girl after that!

She gets a kick out of being tossed and dunked (almost fully).

Thanks to Doug, we have a pool-side basketball hoop. She learned to dunk the other day and is quite proud of herself....lots of clapping!

Nicky, Brent and Lyla came over on Saturday for a bit and Ava loved just looking at her. We think they're going to be great friends.

A sleeping Lyla was the centerpiece to our dinner table. She's super cute!




Ryan and Ava - playing in the pool. She's also getting really good at "diving." She'll sit on the side of the pool and fall into the pool while you catch her. She thinks it a hoot!
