Hello Cheeks!


Ava was just about average size at birth, but when I compare her to other newborns she always looks bigger. I've decided 80% of her weight is in her head and cheeks! This was Ava's first bath at home. For the most part she was quite calm until the cool air hit her after the bath. Ethan loved being a helper too. Initially all the new things with the baby were exciting and Ethan wanted to be part of it all. Now I ask him to pass me a burp towel and he says, "Hey mom, I'm busy too," as he plays with his Legos. Oh the rough life of a 3 year old!

OH MELANIE!!!! She is GORGEOUS!!! Congratulations (late, sorry, I don't know where I've been)!!!!! I can't wait to see more pictures of her. What beautiful babies you have!

So funny! If my Ethan (born July 20th) had been a girl, we were going to name her Ava.
