Ava-- 3 Months

Miss Ava, you are absolutely precious. And bless your heart, you've survived the circus that is our family. Congratulations on that. :) 

Your stat's: 11.4 pounds and 22 inches long. Oh and you've got a big ole head which runs in our family. :D

You like to give us smiles after you eat! You like to watch Lyla a lot too. You could careless for tummy time/freaking lose it every time your on your belly. Ah well. Your sister hated it too, and she's not walking around dragging her head on the floor so I bet you'll be fine.

Time for the picture dump. Enjoy! :-)

This smile is absolutely precious!

Alright... real life. Having two little ones is tough work! We are really getting a lot better, but in the beginning... there was a learning curve. :) Lyla is a wonderful big sister. She has never, not once, been naughty or mean towards Ava. We'll take it while we can get it! I'm positive that this sisterly love will take on many different shapes as the girls continue to grow up. All that being said, I've learned a lot. I've learned that sometimes, someone has to cry. And you know what, it's okay! I've also learned that Lyla is way more grown up than I thought. She's such a big girl and really understanding a lot more these days. 

I hope everyone is doing well! Thanks for reading. :)

Spirited Lyla- 17 Months

Lyla Joy. You most certainly do have lots of sass. We are going to call it spirit. And you are now 17 months old. You also gained a sister when you were about 15 months old. You may be a toot to your Momma sometimes but you do love your sister very much. You give her lots of kisses and hugs. You won't call her by name but instead call her 'bebe'. We ask you where Ava is and you go point to her but the closest you've gotten to Ava is 'wawa' and that was only once.... in a moment of weakness I'm sure.

Weight: 31 pounds

Height: Who knows. You have definitely had a small growth spurt but your still a shorty. :)

Clothes and diapies: You wear a size 5 diaper, and 2T/3T. Pants in this size are too long but you need room the waist.

Likes: Any kind of fruit, graham crackers, playing with Olivia, kissing your sister, playing outside, Mickey Mouse clubhouse, and READING. Oh. my. gosh. You love to read books.

DIslikes: You can't function without sleep. Period. Most of your fits and 'spirited moments' come from not having enough sleep. You don't like to sleep past 6 am. You don't like meat and you don't like the carseat.

You talk to us a lot more these days. We love it!!

You love you, pumpkin. :)
