Ava is growing like a weed these days. She is taller by the minute and talking like a 4 year old! She is using 2-3 word sentences most of the time, but her favorite phrase is "Thank You Mama." She loves eating chicken, steak and cheese but her favorite is berries of any sort. We are working on the potty training thing, but so far she has only used her potty once. She really did not like that it made a mess, which is another favorite phrase we hear often, "Oh no mess!" Since the weather is warming up we have been playing outside pretty much every day. She draws with sidewalk chalk, plays throw-catch the ball, and chases the dog around saying "Oh no mess!" We have also added another chore to her list. Now she checks the mail and then waters Mommy's plant. She also gets wheel barrel rides around the yard like we used to from Dandy and thinks that is too fun!
Yesterday was Ava's 2nd Easter but 1st egg hunt! It was a beautiful day, but pretty windy as you will hear in the videos. She absolutely loved running around outside finding the eggs! But when the eggs would accidentally open and spill she would pick up all the candy and put it back in the egg! The handle on her basket was also a little long so she would just drag it around behind her spilling eggs out along the way. It worked out pretty good though because then she would turn around and say "Oh look more!" I'm sure we probably could have just left the eggs empty and she would have been happy because she had more fun finding them then eating the candy. We plan to have a few more egg hunts this week in the backyard since she loved it so much.
We also had some time to venture around Papa Keith's place yesterday which Ava also LOVED! She is definitely an outdoor girl. She collected some rocks, she threw some rocks in the water, she helped Daddy skip some rocks, and got to jump on the trampoline. What a blast! She is just getting to do it all these days.
