This summer is going by so fast! We have had so much going on this past month that I hadn't even realized how long it had been since my last post (sorry grannies), so Im going to get you all caught up. Ava is now 15 months old and here are all of her new talents and tricks: She can say "kick", "fish", "shoes", "night night", "Quack" ( like a duck), feed herself with a spoon or fork (sometimes), pretend to snap her fingers and blow her nose (guess who she learned that from?), she says "trash" and points to it (dog hair most of the time) then gets mad if you don't pick it up, says "tickle tickle" and likes to tell crying babies to "Shhhh". She likes to twist, shake her head, dance, stomp, point out your eyes, nose, ears, mouth, chin, hands, belly button, knee, feet and toes. She likes to use crayons and so far has not marked on the walls. She loves her babies and we take them EVERYWHERE. She feeds, burps, consoles, tickles and bathes them. She weighs 29lb 5 oz, so obviously she is still a terrific eater. Her favorite snack is "fish" goldfish and she loves her fruit. We are starting real cereal for breakfast now that she has more teeth. She is still wearing 12-24 month clothes and size 4-5 shoes. She is so much fun now, we are laughing all the time and she is always saying or doing something new.
Steven completed his first year of PA school and received his White Coat. He now has a month to chill before clinicals start. Brittni came to visit two weeks ago and we had a great time at the beach, water park and downtown shopping. Unfortunately Ava got sick a few days after Britt arrived so Ava missed out on the fun stuff (so did daddy). Ava got her first batch of hives, her first ER visit, first taste of benadryl, zyrtec, prednisone and some nice cool oatmeal baths. After 6 days the hives were gone and she returned to our silly little girl. Not sure what caused them, but we all hope they never return. We now have 1 week to hang out until LeLe comes and Steven leaves for his Nicaragua mission trip. Your prayers would be appreciated.
On a very sad note, the accord has kicked the bucket after 17 years. Im not normally a sentimental person, but I might shed a little tear. It was a wonderful and reliable car and will be greatly missed. On a happier note, we are now the proud owners of a toyota camry.
