Ava is 1!!!

Ava turned 1 on September 29th! And thanks to my wonderful sister-in-law, Becky who is the best photographer, we got some great pictures of the little Boogs and her brother and sister.

Becky and I also made the Tutu's the girls are wearing because EVERY little girl needs a TUTU!!

She loves to play with anything that really isn't a toy. And sunglasses are one of her favorites! She is truly already a Diva!!
My little Ava I love you so much and you bring so much joy to all of us. I am so happy to have you with us and you make us laugh everyday!!!
Happy 1st Birhday!

11 Months Old!

Look who is 11 Months! We will be celebrating with a BIG party very soon!

Ava loves to watch Arlee sing and clap, and she tries to join in on the fun too.

"Mom I don't want you to take my picture I want to hold the camera. And put it in my mouth."

Oh but I am a sweety when I want to be.

"Here I come to get the camera" She is a crack up!!

She loves this dog. I think it was Arlee's and one day she found it in her room and just loves to squeeze it. She loves this and her blanket. I think I have another girl who LOVES her blankie. They take after their mommy.

Ava's 10 Months

My little Blue eyed baby is 10 months old! Can you believe it? I can't. She is so much fun and so much work all in the same breath. But I am truly enjoying her. She is walking all around. The only problem with that is that she can't get herself up to do it. So she will fall and then fuss until someone comes and helps her up. And of course she has a lot of "helpers". But we are working on all of that. I just love to watch her discover things and laugh at Caden and Arlee and pick on Titus. It is too funny and I know I laugh when I should be telling her no. Something I will have to work on. :)

9 Months Old

I'm a little behind in posting these pictures, BUT here she is at 9 months!! She wants to walk so bad but still a little scared at times. She will take steps all by herself but not all the time. She is a really starting to get a personality. This is always my favorite because she is becoming her own little person. We love her soooo much and have enjoyed everything about her (ok maybe not everything, like the fussing!) :)

8 Months Old

My little Ava Grace is 8 Months old. I am pretty sure time just is gone in a blink. I can't believe all she is doing. She wants to walk so bad, she is standing at the couch and the tables. She is sitting all by herself and eating some table food all by herself. She is also very vocal. She likes to hear herself talk a lot. Her and Arlee will be a great team when she gets bigger. I am sure they will sing together one day. Mom give me that camera!!

7 Months Old!!

OOOOO I would really like to take that off my shirt!

Smile, Fuss, Smile, Fuss, Smile, Fuss!!!

Growing and doing all kinds of fun things. I can sit all by myself, and the other day I pulled myself up to the table in the living room. I am going to be walking soon and following my sister and brother around. Mommy says I need to slow down! But no way I have to keep up with everybody!

6 months and Busy!

Ava turned 6 Months on March 29th and in her first week of being 6 months she was a busy girl. All kinds of first in her life this week.Sitting up all by herself. She is a big girl. She can sit for a few seconds to a few minutes.

My pretty girl with her pretty blue eyes.

She went to her first concert--MICHAEL BUBLE!!!! It was a great concert and she enjoyed it, she slept through it all. :) At least it is somewhat soothing music.

We went with Kara, Kristen, Kelsey, Aunt Nancy, and Grandma LaLa! It was a blast!

Ava had her FIRST EASTER!!! What cute kids they are!

Ava and Arlee had matching dresses. I never thought I would match my girls if I had two of them, but let me tell you how much fun it is. And Children's Place is the place to go. I know I only have a couple more years to be able to match them and then Arlee will say no way. I better enjoy it while it lasts. Arlee did however get to pick out the dresses so she was very excited about that.

We are in the Land of the Firsts for sure. And these are just a few, many more to come.

My Blue-Eyed Beauty!

My fabulous sister-in-law, Becky, once again proves she is an awesome photographer. She came and took these pictures of Ava this month and totally captured who she is. She is ALWAYS sticking her tongue out and playing with it (she gets that from her dad and brother). She is a happy little thing. She makes me smile, even when she is fussy she will turn and give me a smile and it will melt my heart.

Ava is 4 Months!!

Happy 4 Months to Ava!!!

She is such a happy baby. And of course Caden and Arlee can make her smile and giggle like no one else.

I must really like this photo. I put it in twice. And I can't figure out how to take it away. Oh well look how cute she is.

I love it when she giggles. It is one of my favorite things. I have soooo enjoyed my baby girl and I thank the Lord everyday that He gave her to me. I know with all my heart that she is suppose to be in my life and fill this family with so much love.
