X Games 2010

The rain and freezing temperatures stopped long enough for us to play outside Sunday afternoon. Ava enjoyed getting out and doing stunt jumps off the rock. She's practicing for when we take her out to Colorado (eventually).

Chillin

Hanging out on her "brown couch", Ava's enjoying a snack and some ballet. Too cool in her shades! Apparently, The Nutcracker is better viewed in dim light.

Our Little Ballerina

Ever since watching The Nutcracker the week before Christmas, Ava has been obsessed with ballet. She wants to watch it everyday. I can tell she is following in my footsteps and will be a wildly successful ballerina!

Snow!!

It snowed early this morning here...that meant I had to spend the night at the hospital...bad for me, but Ava really enjoyed playing in the snow this afternoon. She loved crunching in it in her rainboots. She kept wanting "different snow" and wanted me to find blue snow instead of white. Michael said she was so excited and telling all her friends at school about the snow when she got there.

Soccer, baby!

Her daddy got her a soccer goal, and she loves kicking all of the balls into it...especially her purple ball. No one can kick the purple ball except her. What a fun way to spend New Year's Day!

Movin on Up!

Ava moved out of her crib and into her "big girl bed" about a week and a half ago. She loves it, and sleeps all night if you can ever get her to sleep. She usually comes out of her room 2 to 10 times before going to sleep. This is gettting exhauting! Granpa made her headboard which looks great in her room! I'm not quit done with everything, but it's getting there.

Cool Ride

It was a little warmer today, so we were able to get outside with Ava's new bike (with pedals). She loved it. She never wanted to get off. She kept saying "Ava's bike with pedals like mommy and daddy." I know...she doesn't have her helmet on...I picked the warmer one today otherwise she always wears it.
