Week One for Ava

Ava is now 11 days old; time has gone fast and she continues to be a great baby! She is sleeping good at night (for the most part- we will have a couple bad nights here and there). I usually feed her right before bed around 11 or so and then we get up between 2-3 and then in the morning again by 6 or so. This is a nice change from little miss Piper who didn't quite now what to do at night! Ava seems to be a mellow baby like Piper was, she doesn't cry too much- only when she needs something.

Piper LOVES HER LITTLE SISTER; maybe a little too much at times. We are reminding her several times to be soft, etc. She is still going to daycare 4 days a week, which she enjoys- she loves seeing her friends! It is also nice for Ava and I to get bonding time!

I was sick last week some, so pictures are a little lacking. Feeling much better now; it is sure hard to be sick with 2 children under 2! :)

Piper is a girly girl-- always wants to be in a dress! She asks me every morning to wear a dress to school!!

Ava and her new swing from Grandma and Grandpa Doris! She loves it; so does Piper-- we just need her to remember that she is too big to use it!

Last Wednesday we went out to Lake Breckenridge for a little walk; taking advantage of our likely last 60 degree day for a long time
