47 Weeks Old: 01/30/11-02/05/11

This was a big week for baby Ava. She started to point to Mommy and Daddy's eyes, nose, and ears when told to do so. She also points to her baby doll's eyes and Winkie bear's eyes. When she points to eyes,  she says eyes which sounds like ice. When asked to point to her own eyes, she points to her ear!! She also feeds her baby doll a bottle. 

Happy Baby!!

 Ava loves to talk on the phone. She put it up to hear ear and say "Hi".

First time playing with crayons.

Shopping is tiring!!

Ava is walking all over the place. She is always on the go. Mommy and Daddy have a hard time keeping up with her now. 

Playing with Grandma and Pap Shockey

Ava is getting into trouble in this pic pulling wires. She'll touch the wire and then look at Mommy and Daddy because she knows she's not to touch the wires.

AVA IS WALKING!! At the beginning of the week, she needed help walking like in these pics. Then, mid week she took 2 steps all alone....then 3 steps....then 5 steps....and by the end of the week she was walking all by herself everywhere!!

Pointing to her nose

 Ava had another big week. She fed herself and stacked her toys for the first time this week. Also, she started to give hugs!! :)

Drying off after my bath

Acting silly

Celebrated Grammy Snyder's birthday. Ava had her first bite of cake and didn't like it so much.

Aunt Amy's belly bump

Feeding herself

Temps got low enough to bundle Ava up in her snow suit. She's trying on her snow suit for the first time in these pics. She just could not resist playing the piano....one of her favorite toys.

Sometimes when Ava gets tired, she rubs a blanket or stuffed animal on her face.

10 Months!! 01/02/11-01/08/11

Happy 10 Months!! This was a big week for Ava. We celebrated her 10 month birthday and Aunt Amy's baby shower.  Ava is almost ready to walk on her own. She walks with her walker everywhere. She can stand alone, but she hasn't taken her first step yet. She walks along the couch and holds our hand while walking. She mimics everything we do like singing and clapping. She points and tries to talk. She loves to dance. She wiggles her butt and head when she dances.

Ava likes everything but green beans. This time she fell asleep while eating.

ALL SINES SAY BABY AHEAD!!

On January 8th, Mommy, Daddy, Ava, and Grammy Snyder held a farm themed baby shower for Aunt Amy and Myla.  So, everyone had to follow the road "Sines" to the farm. Ironically it was also Elvis Presley's birthday that day. Happy Birthday to the King!!!!!!!

A special thank you to Daddy for the awesome decorations!! :)

 

Thanks to everyone who helped with the shower. We really appreciate all the help :)

Gifts from Grammy and Grandpappy Snyder. Grammy made the diaper cake.

Gift from Ava

Ava dressed in her horsey outfit. This is Ava's favorite gift. It's a gift from Ava to Myla, but before she gave it away,  she had to ride the horsey for awhile.

The shower was a good time. We ate good food, played a few fun games, and watched Aunt Amy and Myla get lots of nice gifts. Thanks to everyone who came to the shower.
