Ava has been little Miss Independent lately. She won't let us feed her anymore - she has to do it herself. But, she can't use a fork or spoon, so this is the usual end result.

The aftermath.

We went to Dash's 1st birthday party today. Here is a great pic of Dash trying to give Ava a kiss. Ahw so sweet!

After the party we all went to the park.

2-12-10 - Snowpocalypse 2010

Well, we got about 4" of snow yesterday. Even the panhandle of Florida was getting snow! I tried to take Ava out in the snow to get a good picture, but she was not happy with me. The second I set her down on the ground she started screaming!

My little Glamour Gal. Playing with Mom's sunglasses and then playing in my closet. She loves to pull my shoes off the rack and throw them on the floor.

Ok. So, I forgot to take a picture today. So, here is a picture from a few days back of Ava playing her xlyophone (a gift from Lily for her birthday) with Daddy.

12 month check-up! Ava had her 12 mo check-up today and she is in great shape! Her last appt. she was underweight. I am happy to report she is back in the normal range! And, she is still in the 90% for length. She is free and clear to start milk and eat anything except for peanuts and honey. We are having fun trying new things! Yesterday she had kiwi - which she loved!
