Look at this little angel :)
Ava dear LOVES the slide, even the big one. But she wants me to hold her on the big twisty slide. But the little ones she's got all by her self!
I love this one.. haha the look on her cute little face is priceless. She was actually trying to climb up the slide and it wasn't workin out so well since she was sliding back down.
I love how pretty all the leaves and the trees look. I am so grateful for the beautiful place we live. I really love Utah. It really has something for everyone, 4 seasons, the mountains, lakes, lots of parks and its where I call home!
Little Ava is so fun. I can't believe how fast she is growing up. I feel like time goes by much faster now that we have Ava. And there is never a dull moment. She is so full of happiness and love I am so SO blessed to have her in my life. The other day Russ and I were playing with her and he randomly says to me, "I am so glad we had a little girl. I can't even imagine having a boy right now." It has always been my dream to have a little girl- I love dressing her in cute outfits, doing her hair, painting her nails, dancing around to girly music with her and just everything else. I do want a boy though and I know Russ does too. But for now we are completely satisfited and complete with our little girl.
Me and my little princess!
Ava is my world my everything! Growing up I couldn't wait to get married, have my perfect little house, and a perfect little family with a little girl that I could spoil and love. At this time of Thanksgiving I think about all the things I am grateful for and my family is above all the most important. I never imagined in a time of economic uncertianty when so many things and people around me are falling apart that despite everything I could still find so much happiness and joy within my own life.
As I grow older I see what truely matters in life and it truly is the little things that make all the difference. I am learning not to worry about things that don't matter and not to waste a moment unhappy when I can be having fun and making lasting memories with the people that mean the most to me. I have everything I need. I have an incredible husband that loves me so much and works so hard to provide for our little family, I have the most beautiful little girl- inside and out- she is such a ray of sunshine in my life. She has changed both Russ and I in so many ways. We are better people because of her. I love my little family more than anything else.
Ava loves playing in the leaves.
LOVE HER... to the moon and back 70 times 7.
Right before we headed off to the grocery store. She really is quite a great little helper. Look at her cute piggies. Finally her hair is long enough to all go up:) Love her little smirk her haha

Ava loves to have tea parties with her stuffed animals. lol
And feeds them :)
Here are my 2 favs, in the last big snow storm about a week ago. I had JUST bought Ava's new winter coat the night before (perfect timing eh..) Thats what that huge tag in the middle is. Russ went out before I could cut it off. Did I mention I am obsessed with Baby Gap and all the awesome sales stores are having right now. Doesn't Ava just look adorable in her new coat ;0 Too bad she hates the snow.. I mean really she hates it. She loves to watch it come down but doesn't like going out in it. You can totally tell by her face here. She is really nervous. I need to work on changing that. I want to have lots and lots of fun snow play days this winter :)
