T & A

Little baby Ava (aka big girl Ava) had her tonsils and adenoids removed today. She came through pretty well. She pushed her baby doll, Nellie, back to the OR on her stretcher. She didn't cry or even look back at me. They said she did really well going to sleep and was very cooperative and didn't cry a bit. Same report from recovery room. When she got back to the room she told me "I swallowed a sucker". That's a pretty good analogy for a 3 year old. Anyway, we are home now and she is doing pretty well. Getting her to drink is proving to be quite the challenge, though.

Homecoming

We attended Homecoming at MSU. Our friends Amy and Jacob got to join us with their two, Owen and Elizabeth. The three of them had such a good time playing together. They were so silly!

more sillines with Capri-suns
What we knew as Bristle Blocks are apparently called Krinkles.

Player Down

This has been my reality since Sunday. I broke my patella and this brace is my new bff for 6 weeks. This isn't an excuse, but merely the reason for no new photo updates of our family. Ava is with my parents for a few days, so maybe they are taking photos of her.

Yes, the couch does appear two-toned. Ava peed on the brown cushions last week, and apparently it isn't possible to clean goose-down cushions...so we have combined our two couches till the new cushions come in. Oh, you gotta love toddlers!
