Get me outta here!!

See me teeth?

Bye Bye jumperoo I don't love you anymore now that I can crawl!!

Ava loves chicken, but this pic was taken after her first bite of ham.

8 Months!! 11/07/10-11/13/10

 Happy 8 Months!! Ava is crawling all over the place. The day after she started to crawl everywhere, she started to stand up. She will stand up and forget that she can't walk. She'll let go of whatever she's holding onto and fall down. She waves bye-bye and does high five. She gives lots of kisses. She drinks out of her sippy cup. She says um and babbles a lot. She still loves her bath. Pears are still her favorite. She loves to "read" books.

Cousin Krystal came to visit Ava, and they played all afternoon.

Ava enjoyed a visit from her friend Hope. Love the blue outfits!! Hope tried to share her cheerios with Ava and gave Ava many kisses. They are exactly a year apart. And Hope's mommy is going to have a baby in April!! :)

Ava is playing the piano!! :)

Playing with her hands!! Ava is getting ANOTHER tooth. Despite getting a lot of teeth at once, she is not fussy (yet) :)

 Happy Halloween!! Ava helped Mommy and Daddy give out candy. And, then went trick or treating to her grandparents and neighbors!!

Doing "big girl"

Ava enjoyed her first Halloween but was exhausted by the end of the night.

Getting ready to go Christmas shopping. Ava started to crawl last week and is a master crawler. She sprints across the room. She's getting another tooth.

 Aunt Amy is having a girl!! Aunt Amy had a sonogram and had everyone for dinner. We all found out she was having a girl by biting into cupcakes filled with PINK icing.

Aunt Amy's baby bump!!

 

Ava had to look at the sonogram pictures just to confirm that it's a girl. Ava can hardly contain her excitement!!!!! She is so glad that Aunt Amy is having a girl and can't wait to be best friends with her baby cousin.

Getting ready to go to church.

New car seat.

Ava's first Halloween was celebrated by many Halloween outfits.

Reading a Halloween card from Grammy and Grandpappy Snyder

PEACHES.....yum yum

Ava's first Halloween parade. She loved the parade especially the fire trucks with the bright lights. It was freezing so we only stayed for half of the parade.

32 Weeks Old: 10/17/10-10/23/10

This was a big week for Baby Ava. She got a new car seat and started sleeping in her crib. She spent the night for the first time away from Mommy and Daddy. She stayed at Grammy and Grandpappy Snyder's house. She slept the whole night. We think the separation was worse for Mommy and Daddy than Baby Ava!! She crawls about 4 steps at a time and then rolls over.  She ate pears, apple sauce, and bananas. So, far pears have been her favorite. She is babbling more than singing. 

Bye Bye car seat....I have outgrown you.

Checking out the crib!! 

"Hanging" out in the basement while Mommy and Daddy clean. 

Aunt Kelly and cousin Jarrett babysat Ava :)
