One Diaper A Day

IMG_2615.JPG

With the exception of bedtime, this sweet pea no longer wears diapers! My mom is the one who instigated the whole potty learning process.. so thank you Mom! If it weren’t for you, I would still be thinking Ava isn’t quite ready.

Her favorite place to go potty is in the lawn.. she’s so silly, she asks if she can go potty in the lawn like “Dilabo” (Diablo – my brothers black lab) She has an accident about once/week but we think she is doing an awesome job!

Ava’s Morning Workout

Here is a video of Ava doing jackknives with the wii fit. This is her second round…

translation:
Wii fit trainer: “don’t forget to keep breathing while you exercise”
Ava: “I don’t want to”, “I’m not reading”, “you’re not reading ever (either)”

MK Nature Center

Last Saturday we went to the MK Nature Center where they had an event for kids on migratory birds. Ava even got to see a live owl and a hawk up close (handled by a guy giving a presentation).

But before we went there we took the dogs (we are dog-sitting) for a walk at the school near our house.

Ava at the playground

Ava and “Momma” – she has been calling Jenn “Momma” a lot lately instead of Mommy.

She looks so old to me in this picture.

Ava loved getting a crane painted on her face and showing it off

Lots of wildlife to see.

Fish under the bridge (trout)

And fish viewing windows that Ava loved:

We even saw a blue heron up close!

Ava LOVES bugs, here she is catching ants to hold them

Ava bird watching (yes the binoculars are backwards AND upside-down)

Ava holding a real (stuffed) wood pecker. She wanted to “fly it”.

All in all, a very fun day!
