Here she is, one day shy of 3 weeks old. She has changed a lot since she was born. Still so sweet though. I could seriously cuddle with her all day (er, maybe that's actually all I did today.) :)

Ava's Peeps
Here are the pictures of the people who got to hold her on her birthday!
My best friend, Kaileen.
A very proud Grandpa.
And a proud grandma.
Her sisters, of course!
Her big daddy.
And her momma. (I just got out of surgery, ok!)
Ava's actual birth (If the sight of blood bothers you, DON'T look at this post.)
I wasn't sure if I was going to post these pictures right on my blog but then I figured there is quite a difference between a c-section delivery and, well, the other kind. Here all you can see is my stomach slathered with iodine and, of course, Ava's actual delivery. If you are like me, you will think these pictures that Adam took are pretty cool! :)
Puzzles
The girls got quite a few puzzles for Christmas this year and Adam has been so good to do them with the girls on almost a daily basis. Sweet daddy, sweet girlies. Life is good.
G-ma's Napping Spot
The dog bed. I thought that this was kind of funny. The fire was on and my mom was cold... what better place to take a little snooze than right there on the dog bed in front of the fire? Of course, a basenji had to curl up next to her. :)

The One-eyed 3 yr-old Snowman
For Michigan, this winter has been disappointing. Well, western MI has been dumped on multiple times, but eastern MI barely has the grass covered. My theory is, if its going to be this cold, there might as well be enough snow on the ground to play with! It has been weird too that we only get 1 inch at a time. Adam has loved that. I am pretty sure that during the last two weeks, while he has been on vacation, that he would have rather shoveled 6 inches in one shot off of our long driveway than 1 inch every other day. It seems like he has been suiting up to shovel more in the last few weeks than ever.
The good thing is that Adalin LOVES to go outside and play in the snow. She will even get herself all suited up without asking for help because she loves it so much. Fine with me. Adam and I had a conversation a while ago about how we want our kids to like playing outside in the winter. We did it and so should they. I remember playing outside for hours as a child in the winter, building networks of caves and snow slides. Fun times.
A few days ago, after Ad shoveled another measly inch, they decided to stop waiting for the good MI snow dumping and just build a snowman.
He is small. The smallest snowman I think I have ever had standing in my yard. But what can you do when you don't have the snow for a big monster snowman? Build a mini one. I told the girls that he is 3 because he is shorter than Adalin (4) but taller than Kira (2). They agreed. Yes, he is definitely 3.
Well, this is an interesting sitting position, for a dog.
Sometimes I wonder why we have dogs in the first place and then I snap a picture like this and I am grateful they are around. Isn't this hilarious? Sorry if you find Indi a little too relaxed in this picture for your taste. :)
Christmas Eve PJs
Our kids always open a gift (new pajamas) on Christmas Eve. Here they are in all their goofiness sporting their new pjs.
