Easter, Toenails, and Counting

Happy Belated Easter everyone! We had a very exciting Easter weekend. Saturday we went to Granny P & Papa Mike's. We played, ate, and hunted Easter eggs. It was the first time we had the entire family together since Christmas so it was a great time! Sunday, we went to church with Granny P then we came back to Papa & Nana Smith's house for a great lunch followed by playing in the yard. Ava had a blast their too (she didn't want to leave).





I painted Ava's toenails for the first time. I think it is so adorable! She saw me painting mine in the bathroom, so she sat down beside me and stretched out her legs. I struggled a little to keep her hands off until they dried, but she did very well I think.



Ava is learning what "cheese" means. I've been working on it with her, and now almost everytime I say "cheese", she gives me a big ol' cheesy grin. It is adorable!



Now for the biggest news. Ava can now count to FIVE! We aren't really sure where she learned this as we hadn't started working on counting with her yet, and neither have her teachers at "school". The only thing we can figure is between her cartoons and being around cousin Hunter counting, she picked up on it. Our girl is very intelligent! We are so proud of her.
