Sick Baby




Ava has been so sick this week. I took her to the doctor Tuesday. He said it was a cold that is going around. He gave her cough medicine and an antihistamine. Her pour little eyes have been watering so much that when she wakes up from a nap or from the night, her eyes are matted shut. She is doing a little better, but still not great. The picture above is from this morning at daycare. She finally went back today, although after seeing how she looks in this picture, I'm wondering if that was the best idea. We are going to try to do a little trick-r-treating with her tonight since it's her first halloween, but it will probably be limited to just the grand & great grandparents' houses in Aquilla. Will post Halloween pics over the weekend.

Playing Catchup




I know it has been awhile since my last post. Things have just been crazy for me at work and it's always busy busy at home too, especially with Ava being so mobile now. She is walking everywhere. Not quite running yet, but she has this cute little trot. Her feet still get ahead of her at times though, and she will face plant in the carpet.

She walked right into Nana's desk the other day. She was holding a toy, staring at it while walking, and walked right into the desk. She fell on her bottom, spun her little circle, then got up and right back at it. I wish I had it on camera because we could have surely won a prize on America's Funniest Home videos, lol.

Biggest Update: Ava is FINALLY cutting a tooth! Our little girl was backwards from most. She was walking when others her age were getting teeth. Now, at 10 months, a tooth has finally breeched the surface. She has been such a big girl about it. The only reason I even knew it was there, was because she stuck my finger in her mouth earlier this week and started knawing on it, at which time I felt something stick me. After about 5 minutes, she finally let me look at it.
