One.... two..... Three! Happy Birthday, Ava!

September

Ava started preschool. She loves it, of course. The preschool is dedicated to art, music and dance. More drama for Ava- whooo hooo!


A terrific bonus - Ava's best buddy Lucy attends and well. They have a great time together all day long.

Hard to believe that our baby is in school already!

Summer 2009, Flying by, Almost Over

Lots and lots of fun swimming and boating at the Canoe Club





Week at the Cape- Fabulous!

Ava - July

Ava loves pink, and usually in the form of dresses and frills. This is a rare "tomboy" shot where we managed to get her in pants. Whoo hooo! We are doing typical summertime things (when the weather permits)- lots of pool time, bbqs and enjoying the outdoors. Tomorrow we leave for our beloved week at the Cape.

Enjoying Spring

Spring has found Us

The warm weather has finally arrived! Most days, anyway. Ava got to spend a little time with her friend (another Ava) in the backyard and play with her sand table and swing set. We also went to a sugar shack for pancakes with Amy and Jeanne and Joanie this weekend and spent some time in the park. We all love being outside again!!

Dancing Queen

Ava tells us, "Put the music on. My have to dance!" So we do. And she does, all day long.

This kid deserves a bright future. Thank you, President Obama!
