No Fear Ava Fans, Ava is Here!

Hey Family and Friends!

Sorry for taking so long to update Ava's blog, but it's finally here and we've got some exciting stories and pics to share with you all, her beloved fans!

First, I wanted to go back a few weeks and show you all some pictures from Ava and Daddy hanging out with our friend, Aaron, and his son, AJ.  They all went to the park downtown to hit the jogging trails.  It was a very hot day as usual,but that didn't stop them from enjoying the outside.  So Daddy made sure that Ava kept cool during the ride as he put a wet towel on her head the whole time.  Look how funny and cute she looks!

Ava and AJ love the outdoors!

Also, this past Summer, my good friend, Sedre, who will be known to Ava as Aunt Sedre :=) , came into town and spent time with us at lunch one day.  She hadn't seen Ava since she was 2 months and was surprised at how much she had grown!  Here's a funny pic of them two at lunch.  Ava and Sed

We miss you Aunt Sedre! Wish you were back in Texas.

 

Ava started eating her first solids a few weeks ago, which is rice cereal.  So I wanted to send you all a short video of her eating it for one of the first times.  Now she eats her cereal in her favorite, Bumbo Seat, which helps her now to sit upright more.  She's almost sitting by herself now.  :)

 

Charlie took a cute picture of Ava in her flower sun hat while sitting on my lap.  So here are a few of the pics of our sweet Ava!

Finally, last Friday, Ava and I had our pool playdate with some friends of mine and their lil ones.  We had a great time together and the babies loved the pool! They are such water babies. :)  Ava enjoyed the floatie in the pool, which gives her a chance to work on her tan at the same time. j/k!  Anyways, enjoy!

Hugs and Kisses from Ava,
