September 30, 2007

Today we were playing in your room, and I was reading a book while you were “reading” your books. I looked over and you were laying down on the floor with your blankie saying “mmmm!” “mmmm!”. I went over to see what you were “mmming” about, and you were sucking on the carpet! Apparently you found a spot of childrens Tylenol that had spilled in your room when we gave it to you in the middle of the night! I swear you’ll eat anything!
Your molars have almost all come in. You’ve had a fever for daaaaays, seriously. I didn’t know what was wrong with you and then today I was tickling you and you laughed real big, and I could see a whole bunch of them! Poor kid, must’ve hurt!
We took you to Emerald Downs today too. I hope you had fun because I don’t think we’ll ever go back. =) It was very cold, and we were outside the whole time! Luckily there was an overhang because it was pouring down rain. You ate a corndog, and shared it with Caleb Gould. You would only eat it if he did too. =) You kept giving him and Noah hug after hug. It was very cute. How come you won’t give us hugs like that?!

Hey Ava!

I thought it would be fun to write you a journal, so that you would know what you were like when you were a little munchkin! I started a little after you were born writing on paper, but I think I’ll do much better if I can type it out. So even though you’re over 1 now, why not get started!
What made me think to do this was, the other day you were eating dinner. We were eating McDonalds, which we don’t let you have very often (but grandma gets you a lot!), and dad handed you a chicken nugget, and a little tub of sweet and sour sauce. You dipped your nugget very carefully, like you always do, and then you took a bite, and calmly placed it on the table. Then you grabbed the sweet and sour with both hands, and stuck your face in it! I guess you liked it! We got some pictures of you eating the sauce. It made us laugh so hard. We love you so much Avis, you don’t even know. I guess you probably won’t know until one day you have your own kids. And yet, it seems so impossible that our little baby will ever grow up like that!
