Summer is here to stay....Finally

It is finally warm enough to sit outside and play. I guess it has been warm enough for a couple of weeks, but we finally had the chance to enjoy it. We layed under the tree in the shade for a while, something that we have not done since last summer. Ava thinks that she can sit up now!! She has to use her hands to steady herself and she topples over after a few minutes, but she loves it. I can't believe how fast she has grown. Sophie wanted to sit with Ava in the shade so Cade got them set up for a picture (he is the cutest daddy).

Splish Splash

Ava finally got to go swimming. We had a nice day and took advantage of it. We packed up our pool bag and off we went. Ava really liked the water, but not so much her "cozy crab" floaty. She liked us to just hold her in the water. The crab would be better if she could stay sitting upright. Oh well maybe next time. Ava looked so cute in her little swim suite and sun hat!!

Tootsies...

Ava discovered her toes a few weeks ago and I swear they are going to be raw if she does not stop sucking on them. Ava is doing all kinds of new things. Last week she rolled over for the first time. She has started eating solids and really loves the sweet potatoes. All she does is talk to herself or screech at us when she is not getting enough attention. I cannot believe how fast Ava has grown. Next week she will be 5 months old!!!!
