The Strawberry Patch

Well, mom and dad were brave (or crazy) today and took me up to Dahlonega to pick strawberries. After a few pictures, we all decided that picking strawberries is a lot of work so we just bought a bucket at the stand up front.

We hope you will all come and see us soon. If you do, guess what you will be eating... strawberries. We have enough to last 3 years.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Love,
Ava

Thursday Night Photos

Well, it is just a normal Thursday night. I have had my bath and am in my pajamas. I can't wait to have my bottle and go to bed.

Goodnight!

New Pictures!

Hi!

Sorry I have been away for the last two weeks. Mommy and Daddy have been very busy and have not been able to help me post my pictures. Grammy and Pops came to see me yesterday. We went to Watershed for lunch and Pops gave me a bottle. Don't I look cute in the dress Grammy gave me?

I had a great time with my Grandparents. I love them very much!

I hope everyone has a great week. I will post again soon.

Love,
Ava

Happy Easter!

I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend! I sure did. I got to visit with lots of people I love. First, I went to Aunt Peggy's house and played with my cousins Zac, Ryan and Gabriel. They really know how to make me laugh! I can't wait until I am old enough to listen to Ryan's iPod. I also saw Aunt Katherine, Poppie, Doll-Doll and cousin Rusty and I finally met cousin Audrey . It was really fun. I will just be happy when I am old enough to eat pizza, too!

Then on Sunday, I went to Gainesville and visited with Grammy, Pops, Great Grandmother McDonald, Aunt Carol and Uncle Dusty. Aunt Carol fed me my lunch and got to see what a mess I can make with peaches and oatmeal! Yummy!!

I am 9 months old today. I am growing up so fast. I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful family who loves me.

I hope everyone had as much fun on Easter weekend as I did. Whew, I am tired. Mom and Dad hope I will go to bed early tonight because I had such a big day. I may surprise them and stay up late... We'll have to wait and see.

Love,

Ava

I love my cousins!

Elizabeth, Sophie and Charlotte,

Mommy and Daddy told me that we will not be able to play together tomorrow. Rats! We will have to plan to get together really soon. Mommy has ordered some pictures from your last visit but I asked her to post them on the blog so you can see them. I am much bigger now. I have seven teeth! I can't wait to see you again. We will go to George's and have corn dogs and hamburgers.

I love you guys!

Time for a walk with Mom, Dad and Vivi!

So, I am such a big girl that I am staying up until 8pm at night. Mom and dad are really enjoying taking me and Vivi for a walk each night when they get home from work. I like to wear my hat on walks to keep the sun out of my eyes. Vivi just runs along beside me and licks my hands. What fun!

Check out my hip new outfit!

Aunt Carol sent me the cutet sweatsuit! I am going to be the coolest baby in Virginia Highlands this spring.
