What a busy December!!

The girls had a very busy holiday season!! They had 5 Christmas' to go to! They must have been very good girls this year!

The girls having Christmas at their MeeMaw and Papa's with 4 of their cousins!

Ava, all Elmo'd out!

Ava with her new Elmo Live!

Ava having Christmas with her Great Granny!

What a precious baby!

With Mommy, waving at Daddy!

Having Christmas with cousin Hayden.

The first time these cousins have been together!

Trying to get into trouble with cousin Ashby....the first of many times to come, I'm sure!

Posing by the fire for Daddy!

In her new bib that her Great Grandma made for her!

On her new rocking horse that Papa Gary got her. She promptly had us remove the red safety seat.

Climbing on everything at Papa Gary's house.

Messy Baby!

She takes her baby Sasha everywhere!

Her cute scrunchy face that we love, and get to see a lot!

Playing with Daddy at bedtime!

A rare glimpse of her front teeth. Ava loves to tumble, but needs help from this position!

Again, with baby Sasha!

Crazy hair in the bathtub!

She loves bathtime!

How CUTE is she?!?!?

Obviously she thinks that baby Sasha needs a bath too!

Helping Daddy with the laundry!

We have traumatized our poor baby!

In her defense, he is pretty creepy!

Ava's First Birthday and more...

The girls at the State Capital to take a few pictures. Ava hasn't quite learned how to smile/pose on command yet.

She is so much more fun this Christmas!

Her cake was almost bigger than she was!

She wasn't quite sure what to do with the cake. She doesn't really like icing. (I know, but I gave birth to her, so I'm SURE she is mine!)

How tiny does she look next to her Daddy?

One of her gifts....how cute is she in it?

What's in here??

She was SO excited about her car, that she tried to get on it before we

could get it out of the box!

She then proceeded to get on it backwards!

But, she finally got the hang of it!

She loves to help her Daddy and is always under his feet.

Elmo is present for everything we do.

Ava has moved on from walking and is now into running. Her daycare teachers let her go out into the hallway so she can run up and down the halls.

She actually has two front teeth now, but you still can't see them yet when she smiles....only when she laughs really big.

This is one of our favorite faces that she makes! She makes a funny noise with it too. She just happens to have sweet potatos on her face in this one!

They love playing together! Ava literally lights up when her big sister comes in the room!

Such a sweet baby!
