Ava turned 4 years old today! Hard to believe that our little girl is getting so old...and soon will be a big sister. We ended up celebrating her birthday a day early as Darren had to be out of town for work. But it really did not matter since Ava did not know which day it was actually on. She got sung to at school and had chocolote chip cookies and then when Darren got home, we took her to Sonic (that's where she wanted to eat for her bday) and then came home to open presents.
Here she is waiting for us to get all her presents out (we tried not to go overboard with the presents but as usual we can't seem to stick to our plans; it's a bit ridiculous!). This is by far my favorite photo of the day b/c even though she is pouty, she looks so cute!
And now it's time to open the presents!! Notice her tiara that she wanted to wear since she was the "Birthday Princess."
Outside testing out some of her new stuff (check out the big box of sidewalk chalk Darren got her). This year I picked out a few things for her that I wanted to get (clothes, pjs, sparkle shoes and books) and then Darren got her some fun things mainly for outdoor use (chair, rake/hoe/shovel set, chalk, scooter & a bean bag chair). I really think we planned on getting her like 3 gifts and then went all crazy...we need to STOP!! I think I am turning Darren into me...you know a shop-aholic (or maybe a buy-aholic).
On her new Hello Kitty scooter...our driveway is a bit steep for this but she just needs to practice. When she uses in the garage, she is pretty good at it.
And "reading" her new books with the Bugsby system...she literally spent 30 minutes doing this by herself...amazing!
