Bath Time!

So I realize I just updated this, but I can't help but add more when I get such amazing pictures of Ava! She absolutley loves the bath tub. She splashes and just smiles the whole time. In fact, she actually gets mad when we take her out!!

Also, a small announcement, Vidal and I are expecting again! I'll follow with details on the pregnancy once we find out. Hope everyone is starting to enjoy the warming weather! XOXOXO

So Cute!!

I had to share the cut new pictures of Ava that Vidal and I got. One night after Ava had gotten out of the bath i was drying my hair from her splashing, and she was so amazed with it that I started blow drying hers. Her hair was so funny after, all puffy and straight, we decided to take a picture. Well, in the process of taking the pictures we didn't really get any of her hair, but we finally got pictures of her teeth!! Yay! she has two on the bottom, so I thought I'd post it on here and show them off :)

This one is just extremely cute! :) Hope everything is going great for everyone! XOXO

Catching Up

Spring is just around the corner and we are definitely looking forward to it! Ava has now made incredible jumps in growing up, she startig crawling and pulling hersel up the same day. Sadly, we have such a small apartment it makes it really hard to make sure everything is well, "babyproof." Hopefully we'll be moving into something bigger come May when our lease is up. I have a couple of fun videos of Ava to post. Here is her crawling, and believe me, she doesn't slow down now!

It's amazing to me that she is doing that, it still seems like she is so young, wow how time flies. And of course, that same day we get to experience this....

We are looking forward to the family trips and time that we get to experience over the spring/summer. Please keep us informed of any events! Love you all, and hope your spring cleaning is going well! Huuurray, it's almost summer!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Our little one had a great Christmas, although she had no idea what was going on, she did enjoy eating the wrapping paper quit a bit! And that's always fun to witness...

She also really loved all of her gifts..

We spent most the day on Christmas in Orem, it was such a good time. Ava enjoyed spending time with the family. Her and Marison together were so cute....it started out nice..

Then Ava had to make her mad....

For New Years we hung out with some of mine and Vidal's good close friends/cousins. I had a great time with all of them. So much fun! We are looking forward to a new year, and a new start. This last year was a tough one, but we've made it through, and hopefully from here on it will just get better.

Thank you again for all your love and support this last year.

I'm sure most of you have heard of the show "The Office" on TV. I know my family loves it. I wanted to share with you something that we did to our boss. We wrapped everything in her office with wrapping paper. EVERYTHING the mouse, the computer, every book & picture frame, all her walls, chairs, you get the point. :) Here is a picture!

I hope everyone is enjoying this Holiday Season!! I certainly am, and I am so excited for the snow and having a white Christmas. I can't believe Ava's progress over this last month! It's incredible, she's so cute. Vidal and I also took his nephews to the dinosaur museum, it was so much fun, they are such good boys and I hope they had fun! And thank you so so much to my mom for giving them that extra little "tour" - they really are enjoying the bones they got to take home.

She was so so so so tired. She passed out from all the excitement :)

Ava is now trying to sit independently, and she eats everything, but that's been going on for awhile now. Here are some recent pictures.

And I am sooooo EXCITED! The doctor confirmed at Ava's last appointment that she is going to keep those beautiful blue eyes of hers!! She's going to be a heart breaker!

Last thing I'm going to put on here is a video Vidal took of Ava playing in her "saucer" - she gets extremley frustrated with the toys because they don't seem to go in her mouth.

Happy Holidays everyone! I hope everyone has a great Christmas and a Happy New Year! Love you all!! :)

Quick update, we had a GREAT time in Elko, it was so much fun. I absolutley love Vidal's family, they are so much fun. And thanks to Joey, Kathy, Tommie, and Jim for showing us around! And also helping us win some money....or loose some, whichever way you look at it! haha.
Thanksgiving was great, I hopefully will post pictures soon, we spent the first part of the day with my family down in Springville. It was so fun, and my nephews and niece are the cutest. Vidal and I sat and built things for them most the time, of course I didn't see Ava almost the whole time I was there (she must be a big deal :D). Afterwards we went to Vidal's cousin Daniel's house where we had a second Thanksgiving. Needless to say I was incredibly full! When we got to Elko the next day I didn't hardly eat anything because I was so stuffed!!
Ava is getting SO big. She encountered pretty much her first sickness. Got a pretty bad fever and was just miserable for about 3 days. I got no sleep as well, but I'm just glad she's better. This last week she has also discovered the joys of rolling! haha, she's so funny, she'll roll over and then get mad she's on her stomach. What a character.
Pictures and another update will come soon. Thanksgiving gave me the opportunity to remember all the things I take for granted. I'm so greatful to have a job in these times. And I'm greatful for such an amazing and supportive family. I also love my friends, I can't thank them enough for their loyalty. And of course, my little Ava. I can't believe what a blessing she has been in my life, and how much joy she brings to me. Again, thank you to everyone for everything you've done. I love you all.
