…Ava peed in the potty for the first time tonight! Just wanted to be sure that got documented somewhere.


That is all.

A Little Update

Posted August 26th, 2009 by Sally and filed in Uncategorized

We’re long overdue for an update here in blogland, but I figured Matt ought to write about his and Ava’s trip to Texas. Look for that soon. I was busy here, but didn’t do anything that merited picture-taking. :-)


Until we get that post up and going, here are a few videos from dinner today which are mildly entertaining.

This one is long, but hang in there, she’s a real drama queen toward the end.

Such a polite girl…and just tickled about it.


Bye-Bye. Love you.

So hot, she’s cool

Ava’s got a double ear infection today and has got quite the fever. Luckily, though, she’s discovered that shades make her cool.

Ready for a Trip

Ava’s Big Girl Room – Step 3

Posted August 10th, 2009 by Sally and filed in Uncategorized
This weekend saw us doing some more work on Ava’s big girl room. We finished up the lighting project for her room…

…and then started working on a few of the wood craft projects that are part of the finishing touches. I’m headed back to classes soon, so needed to get these finished.

First…a gypsy-friendly growth chart….

…and then a coat and bag rack.

I’m still working on a few sewing projects and will finish them up next week. Check back for more soon!
