Countdown to 5!

Ava has been talking about turning 5 FOREVER! We thought it would be fun to make a countdown chain...here it is with the soon to be Birthday Girl.
We've got LOTS of days to go until we reach the end....
It's hard to believe my firstborn baby is almost 5!

Silent + Sisters = Big Mess

This is what happens when the girls play...and there is silence...dress up and messes! Silence is always a seldom and scary thing around here. Janie is ALL girl...Ava loves to help her put on every possible necklace and bracelet we own.
Jane is also getting lots of teeth....finally! Here she is copying Ava's silly face. ha!

Sweet baby!

Pretty Produce

We are enjoying our local Farmer's Market! The atmosphere is warm and small townish and the fresh produce is unbeatable! Just one more reason we love living here!!

We LOVE Our Doctor!

Jane went for her 18 month check this morning. We LOVE our pediatrician and everyone else in the office....It's the BEST! Dr. M has been our doc since Ava was 2 days old!
Our little Janie Bird is 20 lbs and 29 inches long....and growing everyday!
After the check up...we headed to the mall to play with trains and eat lunch with Grammy!
It was a super fun Friday!

The Good Life

Isabella came over for some sprinkler fun this week!
My country baby (who usually wears a suit, I might add) drank my tea and chatted with her people on the phone! ha! She looks like she's living large...for an 18 mth old!
