A drooling good time....

Good eats

We started feeding Ava solids this week.

Of course its just rice cereal for awhile, but she still enjoys it.

Go Cards!

Ava had to show off her Cardinal outfit.

check out my new outfit...

4 month check up!

Avalyn went for her 4 month check up today. The doctor was very impressed with her motor skills and at how well she holds her head up. She said that she has hit some very important milestones and that given her scary entrance we should have nothing to worry about now. This is always reassuring. She now weighs 11lb 9oz and is 23 3/4 in. She's in the 25% for her age but the doctor says she is growing along schedule and very proportionate. As long as she's healthy I could care less what percentile she's in. Besides the smaller she is the easier it is to lug her around :)

Gone Swimmin'

Tracy and Madi with Ava and I.

Madi and Ava share the same birthday so they are exactly a year apart.

Ready for the beach

Ava has a swimsuit that someone had given her. So of course I had to take her picture in it before she out grew it.
