Ava 4 months

Sweet Ava turned 4 months today! She is such a happy baby:) She is really getting a personality on her. I think she might be a little social bug, she loves being out and all she wants to do is talk and talk to whomever will listen. It's really cute! Ava loves tummy time and being on the her changing table. She coos and laughs the whole time. We have being doing a lot of play dates with our friends. Looking forward to doing activities and play dates this summer. Warmer weather is right around the corner!

Jimmy and Tara's Wedding Weekend

My best friend got married this past weekend to a wonderful man! We have been best friend's since high school and I don't see it ever changing even with me 1,000 miles away. She has been there through the worst, bad, good, and exciting times of my life. To this day we make each other laugh, cry, and most of time laughing so hard we are crying. She will always be a special part of my life and now that she is starting this new journey. I can't be more happy for her that she has found a loving partner!
We wish Tara and Jimmy much love, laughter, and good health as they start their future together.
Also, it was just a fun weekend to see all of my high school friends share in this wonderful time in her life. We had so much fun catching up on old times and laughing at new ones. They are a great group of girls and respect every one of them. It's amazing that we have known each other for so long. I swear it feels like yesterday we were walking the halls of MND as freshman and now we are moms, wives, teachers, etc. Who would have ever thought....here's to many more years of being such great girlfriends.

Cincinnati in February

Cary, Ava, and I got to go back to Cincinnati for a week to visit family and go to my best friend's wedding. It just so happen that Cary had training the week before the wedding in Dayton. We decided to spend a couple of days in Dayton then travel down for wedding at the end of the week. Ava absolutely loved every minute spending it with both Grandma and Grandpa and all of her Brewer cousins. They even got to babysit her while mom and dad went to all the wedding activities. When even got to spend some time with Kristin and Bellamy. The girls just absolutely loved it other, well at least this time they kind of looked at each other:) Soon enough they will be playing together! It was a nice visit with family.

Ava's First Plane Ride

Ava took her first plane ride back to Cincinnati with Daddy! I flew separate and needless to say I will never do that again:) We were going back to see family and attend my best friend wedding. Cary had a training class the week before so it worked out that we could all go. She got her wings from the pilots and from what Cary has said she did very well. I like to think she was an angel and hope that she loves to travel. I don't think she has a choice since there is lots of travel in her future:)

Tummy Time

Ava is lifting her head and having so much fun on her tummy! She loves looking around and talking to her toys on her tummy:)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Ava spent her Valentine's with lots of love and smiles. She got Valentine's from Grandma B and Papa and Grandmom and Granddad. She talked to her friend Jerry the Giraffe and she got lots of hugs and kisses from mommy and daddy. We decide not to make heart cookies this year because mommy is trying to lose some weight:) Maybe next year!

Ava 3 months

Ava is 3 months! Mom and Dad can't believe it:) She is changing everyday getting bigger, brighter, and happier. If that is possible! She is sleeping through the night at least right now. Also she loves to play with her toys, talk to mommy and daddy, and eat. Everyday we are just amazed at how blessed we are that she is a healthy and happy little girl.
