Yummy Cheetoooos!!!!!


Ava sure does LOVE Cheetos Puffs! Or as she would say, "Cheetoooooos!!!", with a stretched out long o sound. So cute!! Anyway, if she sees the Cheetos bag or if you ask her if she wants some, she starts to cheer and clap and she will even try to climb up into her high chair. Hilarious!!!

What a Blessing!!


Gosh!! It has been two years (around May 5) since we found out we were going to become parents!! What an emotional day! I remember feeling so much joy but also scared at the same time. At the end of May, we moved up here from Natchez and were living in an apartment. We were very nervous because we had to find a house and I, of course, had to get a job! It is amazing how everything just fell into place. Praise God!! He led us to this great house and I got a job at NWRE teaching. I feel so at home at NWRE! I work with so many wonderful people and I am so grateful!!!I can not imagine working without them! I love you guys!!

Looking at all of these pictures fills me with so much love. Motherhood is the BEST!!

Looooove This Girl!!

Ava has certainly kept us busy and entertained!!!She is into everything she can get her hands on. If she can't get to it, she will find a way!! I haven't updated in a very long time, I know, so here is a little bit of what has been going on with our Sweet Ava.
She is about 23 pounds now and almost running everywhere. When she stumbles and falls, she says uh oh, and gets right back up never skipping a beat. She has her side molars in and almost all of her teeth in the front. Oh, and never put your finger in her mouth because she will clamp down and think it is hilarious!!!

She points to her hair, nose, teeth, ears, eyes, belly button, feet, and hands. Her new words are sit down and no, no. I'm guessing she hears that a lot!!! :) Other words she says are cat (kitty),uh- oh, mommie, daddy, papaw, papa, nite- nite, bye- bye, bunny, puppy, dog, and bubbles. Sylvester and Ava talk all the time to each other. Ava will meow back at Sylvester; just as cute and serious as she can be.

She absolutely loves bath time! She will drink out of the cup and pour the water all over her and onto the floor. When it's time to get out, she says bye, bye. Sooo cute!!! But sometimes, it's not that easy!! She will let you know when she doesn't want out!!
More on our growing little munchin later!!
