The Every Day Kinds of Moments

Ok. I finally have a moment to post some pictures of Ava today! She has a little cold and is upstairs napping at the moment. These are just everyday moments that we've captured with Ava lately. To catch you up on the last week or so, here are some fun moments we've shared with her.

Ava loves big stuffed animals. If there's one in her crib, she lays down on top of it and cuddles. If there's one anywhere, we'll catch her snuggling with it for a few minutes. I caught this picture of her loving on Maia's panda bear the other day.



I took Mr. Bear to the vet a few weeks back, which is always an adventure, and Mom met me there to help me out! Thanks, Mom! Bear's now 69.3 lbs, and his head still smells like a skunk!



Ava is an acrobat. She likes to swing her legs up, over and through things! Here she is trying to climb up on the couch with me.



If Daddy is outside, Ava loves to go over to the window and peek out at him and Bear. She loves to watch Daddy, the dog, birds, butterflies, anything that's moving!



Our buddy, Sam, came over to play last week and dressed up like a leopard. Ava loves anything soft and furry and kept trying to pet Sam. He was such a good sport!



Introducing.... Leo the kitten, my parent's new kitty. Both of their cats died last spring at very ripe old ages, and I decided to surprise them with a new one! He's VERY playful.



Before we took him to Mom and Dad's, Ava got to "play" with him for a minute. She LOVES cats and cries when they run away from her. Leo let her have some one on one time for a little bit because he doesn't know better!



Ava's Dorothy dress - she looks so pretty in blue. :)



Ava has new habit when she eats. She'll cross her little feet.



Mom surprised Ava this week with a rocking horse that plays music and makes horse sounds. Ava loves to swing her leg over - we didn't teach her that- and go for a ride!

I love the picture of Ava laying on the panda bear! Just wait until she is in college and has a bed full of stuffed animals to take to college!
