March 31, Day 63

Max is always on the prowl when Ava is in her highchair.  With good reason too.  Lately all she does is toss food overboard!

March 30, Day 62

This picture is for my mom.  She gave me clothes she had made for me when I was a baby.  This is a dress I wore.  It's really to small - if I buttoned the top button, I would choke her!  But we had fun playing dress-up.

March 29, Day 61

I got Ava a new pair of the most adorable shoes.  They are too big for her right now (she has two other pair in a smaller size that are still too big - supposedly sized 6-12 month), but she'll eventually grow into them.  I bought the first pair back in Nov. thinking she would grow into them by now.  I think I have the slowest growing baby ever...  The best part is though, I got to use a coupon getting $10 off!!

March 28, Day 60

A big thunderstorm is going through tonight.  Max is very afraid of thunderstorms and follows me throughout the house and then sits and shakes.  Ava decided this was a good chance to get in some petting.  He was to afraid to move!

We went walking again tonight... Adi had a slight catastrophe - good thing she's tough.  Then we had milkshakes!  Here's the cousins hanging out together.

I was getting Ava ready for bed and watching a little bit of Dancing with the Stars... Ava started dancing, too!  It was so cute!

We went for a walk tonight at the park.  Eden had fun pushing Adi till she got too heavy!

March 18, Day 50

Today at school I filled in for one of the kindergarten teachers.  There are only 10 kids in her afternoon class.  One of the kids had her shoes on backwards.  How cute.  She had her kids write me thank-you cards.  I love how this one kept crossing out letters trying to write my name.

March 17, Day 49

We enjoyed this beautiful day by going to the park.  After we walked the trail, Ava got to play on the playground.  It was sooooo crowded.  The legs in the picture belong to two little girls that go to the school where I work.  They were very intrigued by Ava and my camera!

March 16, Day 48

Ava had her 15 month check-up today.  She was very brave for her shot, and didn't even cry!  She is weighing in at a hefty 16 lbs 12.5 oz... 28 3/4 inches long.. Every time she goes to the doctor, she gets a free (well, not really) book.  This is the book she got today!

The clock above the fireplace is currently correct twice a day... I guess we should replace the battery...

March 14, Day 46

For some reason today, Ava really wanted to pet Max... and for some reason, Max really didn't want to be pet by Ava...  She chased him under her bed...  She kept looking under the bed at him and pointing... wondering why he didn't want to come out

March 13, Day 45

Ava found Max's water bowl today.  She decided to step in it, with her shoe on, soaking her shoe and pants.. Lovely..

March 12, Day 44

This morning when we woke up, our house was freezing!  Our neighbor left a note on our mailbox that he heard our gas meter making funny noises at 5:15 this morning.  The Vectren man came out and fixed our meter, thank goodness it wasn't the furnace!

March 11, Day 43

When I tell Ava it is bath time now, she gets her bag of toys to throw in the tub.  She takes one out at a time and launches it in.  She's very into manuel labor, she'll put clothes in the laundry basket, throw her dirty diapers away (thanks, dad), put her bath toys in the tub, hold Max's leash, etc.  I am hoping to work this to my advantage in the future!

March 9, Day 41

This picture is for Emily.  Remember this hat you bought Ava last year?  I tried to get her to wear it for a picture.  She was not having it.  I took one picture that made me laugh out loud for 5 minutes.  But I couldn't post it.  Ava would hate me.

March 6, Day 38

The time when I woke up and realized that I forgot to post yeseterday's picture!  Whoops!  Everyone gets a freebie, right?

March 5, Day 37

It was a beautiful (windy) day outside.  While Ava was napping,  Max and I walked around to pick up trash that had blown into our yard.. We found this little kitty hiding out in the bushes!
