Big girl?

She seems to think so!
You can often find her trotting around the house with her sister's backpack on!

We have had the warmest winter!  There's been some cold days and some warm ones, like this one above.  It was almost 50!

I guess this was a colder day, and one with a bit of snow!  Michigan weather has been a roller coaster, I tell you!

 The Stinker.  This is such an Ava face.

Look closely here... See the pen in her ponytail?  I tell you, she does everything she sees others do.. We were grocery shopping and I often stick my pen in my hair when doing so.  Monkey see, monkey do.

And... at the carpet store in a HUGE chair that was there.  Who even builds a chair that large?

Flav's 2nd Birthday

Our baby is 2!

Currently she:
-sleeps with a baby doll and her turtle pillow pet and inside her new sleeping bag
-loves to drink milk
-favorite foods are: all fruits, carrots, cold cereal, fruit snacks, pizza, chicken, soups
-runs, jumps and climbs on everything
-copies everything she sees adults do, almost exactly
-knows quite a few words, but is a bit behind where her sisters were in the vocabulary and speech dept.
-is somewhat OCD, everything must be placed, done and prepared the correct way, if its not, she will fix it herself!
-scrunches her face for the camera (see below)
-is 15th percentile for height, 40th for weight, her head is in the 90th!
-lets the dogs in and out the back door (this is her little chore)
-loves to sit on the potty and try to go, and has had success a handful of times

Happy birthday sweet girl!  We love you!
