Where have the last 2 1/2 years gone? It seems like just yesterday that Ava was born, yet I can't even remember what life was like before her. She has brought more joy and laughs into our lives than we ever thought possible. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I knew being a mom was going to be great but I NEVER knew it would be THIS GREAT! I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.
Now for my bragging... Ava is such a sweet little girl. Such a lover and very considerate of your feelings. She wears her heart on her sleeve and gets her feelings hurt easily (much like her mama). At 2 1/2 Ava can sing/say the entire alphabet and recognizes the letters and their sounds. She also can sing a number of songs, too many to name. Her favorite cartoon right now is definitely Dora. She's also a fan of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Bubble Gubbies to name a couple.
Ava is currently transitioning to mostly size 4T, but still wears a lot of 3T. She wears size 8 shoe. She is wearing size 6 diaper, but we'll be working on potty training soon. (Side note: I remember buying size 1 and 2 diapers when Ava was a baby and thinking, geez who wears size 6? Thinking those would only fit a 5 year old still wearing diapers!) She is currently about 37" tall and weighs 39.2 pounds.
Ava has really started loving daycare. A year ago I still would have said that she loved it, but was still crying when I dropped her off. Now, when I wake her for school she's excited to go and talks about her friends and teachers the whole way there.
We are so blessed to have this little princess in our lives. She says such amazingly funny things on a daily basis and has become such a smart little girl, I am so proud!
