Mother's Day




I'm a bit behind in blogging. Now I'll write about my fabulous Mother's Day. Daddy and Ava let me sleep in a little bit and when I woke up I was treated to a lovely card and Ava's birthstone charm for my Pandora bracelet. We then played at the park for a little bit and went out for breakfast. During Ava's nap I enjoyed myself by relaxing and catching up on some Desperate Housewives. After nap, we played outside again before heading over to Tyson and Rachel's for dinner with my parents. We ended the day with some Four Queens. Yum! Ava loved it, of course!

Elmo!

Over the weekend we attended Sesame Street Live. Ava loved it and sat so good during the show. We even heard her say "Big Bird" for the first time during the show. Her little eyes just lit up and I can't wait to take her back again.

Easter

Easter weekend was a fun one. We went to see some baby chicks on Friday. She was very interested in them, but a little too afraid to touch or hold them. Ava got to go to Nana and Papa's for an overnight on Friday night. She ended up with a little fever and wasn't feeling the best, but by Saturday morning she was doing much better so Nana and Papa took her to see the Easter Bunny and to an Easter Egg Hunt. She was afraid of the Easter Bunny (not surprised) and was a little timid during the Easter Egg Hunt. I think all the other kids were overwhelming for her.

Easter Sunday we woke up to a crabby little girl, I'm still thinking she wasn't feeling the best. We almost skipped church and went to Urgent Care, but at the last minute she perked up and we threw on her dress and I fixed her hair and put on her shoes in the car. Luckily, my family was there saving us seats. After church, my family including my parents, my Grandma and her husband, Rachel and Tyson, and Josh came back to our house for an Easter brunch. We had an Easter Egg hunt in the front yard for Ava. She loved this one and got the hang of it right away. And after a week of rain and cold, we were excited to see the sun!
