Lake Conroe

Mommy, Daddy & I went to Lake Conroe to visit Granny & Pops for the Memorial Day weekend. My Aunt Donna, Uncle Mike & Cousin Ian also came.

Here I am with Granny, Pops & Ian.




And here I am smiling at Aunt Donna.

And here is me in my cute outfit that Aunt Donna & Uncle Mike gave me. It says "Cutie" on it!

Surprising Myself

I have been practicing my neck control. Here I am looking quite surprised that I can hold my head up. I still have not perfected this but I have come close. You try holding your head up when it accounts for a large portion of your weight -- its hard!

Drs. Visit

Today I had to go to the doctor for my 2 month checkup. I now weigh 10 lbs 7 oz (25%) and I am 21 3/4 long (20%). I am small but I have gained some weight since last time so everything looked good. I got 4 shots today -- I did not like it at all. Neither did Mommy & Daddy. Check out my boo boos.

How Big Am I? Part Two

I am getting bigger every day but I am not sure how much I weigh these days. Here I am comparing myself to my kitty Zaphod. I am catching up to him!!

Hi Daddy!

I had Mommy send this email to Daddy today. I am sad when he is at work. :)

Hi Daddy-

I miss you! Went to lunch with Mommy -- she messed up and picked me up when I was tired so I was a bit cranky. But it was not so bad. I ended up falling asleep again so it was okay. Mommy just did not eat until the very end. Just wanted to send you some cute pics of me and tell you that I can't wait until this weekend so I can see you more. I love you Daddy!

Love,
Ava

Hook 'Em Horns

In response to the Aggie pic, Mommy dressed me in my Texas onesie. Even though she is a 2%er she wanted to represent. I live in a "House Divided"...maybe I'll just plan on going to Tech. Ha!

Gig 'Em Aggies -- At Least For Now

Here I am in one of my Aggie onesies (I feel like a little boy in this, especially with the knee high socks!).

For now I am supporting the Ags. Just wait until I get one of my 3 or 4 UT onesies on. Then I can root for those Longhorns -- however my mom is a 2%er. Anyone care to guess who dressed me today? I'll give you 3 guesses (but you only need one).

Ava Had a Little Lamb..

whose fleece was white as snow. I got to play around on my cozy lamb mat today on the floor. Mommy likes to switch it up sometimes. Don't we look cute?

More of Me Smiling

Here is more video of me smiling -- this is my more timid smile. But I am somewhat smiling at Mommy & Daddy these days.

8 Weeks Old

Today, I am 8 weeks old....


And apparently very sleepy!

Aunt Cortney, Is that You???

I haven't met you yet (although I hear I might be meeting you soon) but I've heard this looks a lot like you. Is it you, Aunt Cortney?

Ok, so its not you but Mommy sure does look a lot like you with her new haircut and color. Mommy does not like the cut too much but will get used to it -- she says it looks better on you! Can't wait to meet you (and hopefully Uncle Jack too!!!)

Daddy & Me

Here's Daddy & me hanging out on the back porch yesterday. Very serious faces...


Here's me semi-smiling at Daddy last night on the couch...

And here is Daddy & me tonight. Again very serious faces. Apparently, I like to make the same face as Daddy. :)

Tiptoe Through the Tulips

Here I am hanging out on my tulip quilt...

Smiling at my giraffe...

and just plain smiling.

Happy Baby

Happy Happy Joy Joy! I am a smiley baby today. For no reason whatsoever....but aren't I cute?

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!!! Today I had Daddy dress me up in my "Mommy" onesie. Then he took this cute shot of me and the card/gift I made/bought for Mommy-- I got Mommy a spa gift certificate since she has been so good to me.


Daddy & I also got Mommy some beautiful pink spray roses...

Here's what I had to say to Mommy in my card. It, of course, made Mommy cry.

Then after the gifts were opened, Daddy, Mommy & I took G-mommy out for a yummy breakfast. Here I am hanging with G-mommy.

First Time Away from Mommy & Daddy

Mommy & Daddy finally decided to go out for a few hours tonight without me -- they deserve a break and it gave me a good chance to spend some quality time with G-mommy (although I must admit I slept for most of the time she babysat me). But we had a good time together. Here is me and G-mommy -- I love her!

How Big Am I?

Well I am not really sure just how big I am these days but I do know that I am growing. Check me out next to my kitty Ford. He is about 11-12 lbs so you can see I am quickly catching up to him.

My First Book Club

Hmmmm....what to say about this? I was hoping to have lots of cute photos from my first visit to mom's book club but.....I was SUPER cranky last night and was NOT shy about letting everyone know it. After 30 or more minutes of being fussy, we ended up leaving.

Sorry mommy!

Sorry book club...hope to get to see everyone another time when I am a happy baby again!

New Pajamas

Mommy bought me new pajamas at the outlet mall last week. It has pink giraffes and monkeys on palm trees on it. I like it a lot because it makes me look even cuter than I am!

Where's Granny?

Pops was in town for work today so Mommy, Daddy & I met him at Chuy's for dinner. Here we are outside the restaurant.


Look how big I've gotten!


But where is Granny? She could not make it so I sent her my love. I miss her but will see her in a few weeks.

And here is me with Daddy & Pops. We make a cute trio, don't we?

Smiling while awake

Here is a short video of me smiling while awake...I have been practicing and now smile from time to time at mommy and daddy with my eyes wide open!! My mom think she sounds dumb on the audio on this so you might want to play it on mute!

Kisses from Mommy

Mommy was giving me kisses today-- I love the attention!

Pretty in Pink

Daddy dressed me today and I must say that I look super cute. Here I am hanging out on the quilt G-mommy made me.

Chillin'

S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y - hey! Been a good day today. Went to the grocery store with my daddy and when I got back I got to hang out with mom's friend Jennie. She held me as I slept for awhile and then I got to play on my mat for a bit. I had a bunch of fun!

I HEART Dad

Here is me and daddy hanging out on the back porch together. Daddy likes to take me outside and I love hanging out with him. Isn't he handsome?

Los Gatos

Here I am chillin with the cats - Ford & Zaphod. For some reason my kitties like to hang out below my swing -- not sure why but I do enjoy the company.

TGIF

Went to lunch with mom and Brooke today. I HEART Brooke for getting me this super cute tee. I look adorable in it.



Here I am pretending to be riding a roller coaster. Weeeeee!!!!

Hanging at Aunt Gabe & Uncle Lyndon's

Here's more of me after shopping at the outlet malls. We are at my Aunt & Uncle's house.

Sawyer & I


"Whatcha talking about Gmommy?" ...or laughing at....at least it looks like that is what I am thinking.

Sawyer holding my hand....(it's under there I swear, her hand is just so much bigger!)

Sawyer & I comparing feet. Crazy to think that in a year I will be that big!!
