Oh Ava....

...I'm happy when you're awake too.

Ava's life as of late...
...is now choosing to walk on her feet rather than her knees.
...loves sweets and will give an enthusiastic "NUM-NUM" while eating them or by just looking at them.
...still prefers baby food over big people food.
...she's the pickiest eater in the whole wide world.
...loves to go outside.
...loves to take naps.
...loves babies or any small child.
...licks her sheets every time I put her to bed (???- I know, weird).
...yells "Della" (meaning Stella) over and over and very loudly.
...still can't say mama...it's disappointing to me.
...she has a major under-bite...she really has 5 teeth, not just two ;).
...she's busy, always moving, spins on a dime...busy.
...she's a little bit naughty...just a little :)
...waves bye to Stella (della) all the way home after we drop Stella off at school.
...In just a few short days she'll be 15 months old!

After dinner tonight Ava comes up to me and signs please. Thinking she just wanted me to hold her I picked her up, but then she points and says "dis, dis" (this). So I put her down and told her to show mama. I told Sean while she was walking away that I bet she's asking for a cookie. Sure enough she walks to the freezer and tries to pull open the drawer. We keep our cookies in the freezer. ;)
