January comes to a close...

Ava was very excited to get a new pair of shorts and a new shirt from Grandma. She was so excited that she took off the clothes she was wearing, including her diaper, to try them on.

Needless to say, there was a bit of an accident, but she was a good helper and cleaned up after herself!

Cute bum!

Using Daddy as a bed, blankie and all.

We had tacos for dinner one night last week and made Ava one of her own. Tortilla, turkey and cheese.

She much preferred making her own taco. Tortilla, yogurt, and grapes. Yum!

The Anderson's came to play one night last week. Lyla and Ava got some good tent time in before bed.

Two cuties in a tent!

Leftover tacos night...a much better result! She really didn't want her own taco, but ate a lot of Mommy's - including salsa, sour cream, etc.

This is proper dining etiquette, right?

Yum-O tac-o!

This past Friday we had a play date at the playground. Fun on the swings, slides, and soccer field.

After school today, Ava and I took a walk/jog to the local park. She was a very patient rider, but wanted to bolt from the stroller as soon as she saw the playground.

She was a trooper on all the slides...even when her shoes got stuck and slowed her down.

We were even so lucky that Daddy stopped by on his way home from work to meet us and play for awhile. Ava spotted him walking toward the playground from a mile away and dragged him up and around both playgrounds. A great week!
