18 months!!

On April 11th, my sweet baby turned 18 months old. It is really crazy how fast time goes with little ones. She continues to be such a blessing and source of joy in our lives. Ava is so silly, and loves to laugh. Her vocabulary is growing rapidly. Some of her favorites are "daddy", "cracker", "please" "abby", "baby", "breakfast", and a variety of animal sounds. She climbs on everything and likes to show us how high she can jump. Ava continues to be a great sleeper. She is down to one nap that typically last anywhere from two to three hours, and she still sleeps 12 to 13 hours a night. Ava will eat just about anything, but definitely loves yogurt and any type of cracker she can get her hands on. It is so fun to watch her change and grow. Seems like there is something new everyday!

Sweetest little face there ever was.

This pretty much sums her up.

She plays hard and sleeps hards.

Ava and her favorite little friend.

The girl loves to be outside and loves her slide. Every time she goes down she says "WEEEE!".  She spends hours outside playing each day. Mommy loves that too!

Her other favorite friend, Abby. When we get home, she always walks in the door and yells, "Abby!".

Playing with daddy is another favorite past time. She loves to climb all over him. I can hear them laughing all throughout the house. Abby tries to get in on the action too.

Sitting at the table, talking on the phone, eating a snack, reading her Bible. Does life get much better??
