What Ava's Up To

This week has been pretty eventful for Ava! This weekend we started feeding Ava baby food. It all started last Friday when I was eating South Beach sugar free chocolate pudding (sounds tasty, uh?) sitting on the floor with Ava. She was staring at me with her big blue eyes and so I let her lick a tiny bit from my finger. (That is probably totally against the rules, right??) Anyway she smacked away like she was saying "yummy!! Mommy, you've been holding out on me!"

So the next day we bought her some organic applesauce and sweet potatoes. She LOVES it!! We make a huge mess everytime! We still haven't gotten a high chair..just can't decide on which one to get, so she eats in her Boppy seat...

I know I have said it before, but Ava is the spitting image of her daddy! I carried her around in my belly for 9 LONG months and she comes out looking EXACTLY like her daddy... I wouldn't trade it for the world. David and Ava are best buddies, especially at bath time.

Ava had her 4 month doctor visit on Monday. She weighed in at 15 pounds 8 ounces! She had to get 3 shots again in her little chubby legs and we hated every minute of it! Then on Tuesday Ava started "school" (I hate the word daycare so we call it school). She did great and her "teachers" are all really nice. This is a big adjustment for us all. My nana kept Ava for us for awhile and we all got a little spoiled. We know that God is making a way for me to be home with Ava as much as possible, so we are making the best of it for now.
