Ava Loves Her Walker

Ava just loves to travel all around the house with Noah's old walker.  She is pretty proud of herself when she can go from the living room all the way down the hall into her room.  She has also learned how to wave "Hi" and "Bye-bye".  She's just so stinking cute!!!

Ten Months - Ava

My Sweet Baby Girl is double digits...ten months!  Can you believe that she has been out of the womb longer than she was in?  Ava continues to learn and grow and simply melt our hearts.  She now has a third tooth {two on the bottom and one on the top} and is looking so much more like a toddler than a baby.  Her hair is a beautiful copper and eyes are staying a grayish-hazel.

Ava just loves her big brother and squeals whenever she sees him.  Noah is such a loving and tender big brother.  He plays with her, looks after her, loves to tell her "NO" when she is touching something she shouldn't, and wants to make sure she is included in everything we do...as if we might forget about her.

Ava says, "Da" whenever she sees our dog, Sierra, and chases Kitty any chance she gets.  She can blow kisses, clap and play "pat-a-cake", blows raspberries, loves to dance, and stops crying whenever she hears me sing {her favorite song is "Come Thou Fount"}.

Ava's current stats are:

Weight:  21 pounds
Height:  28 inches

We're going to have to get a bigger chair soon.

Miner of the Week

Noah is the Student of the Week in kindergarten. He is so excited because he gets to bring in pictures for the wall, bring in 5 items for sharing, and take Miner Bear home.

He had so much fun picking out the pictures.  There are some of his sister (of course), one of his Cuz Jonah, two from our last trip to Disneyland, one of his Book Buddy at school (who happens to be an old student of mine), and one with the family this past Christmas.
