Ava update

It's been a while since I've let you in on little facts about what Ava does. So I decided it was due time.
1) She still has to sit in a rear facing car seat. Hasn't broken that 20lb mark yet!
2) She LOVES to be outside in the yard. Gma and Gpa Walker got her one of those little turtle sandboxes and she absolutely LOVES it! She will just sit and dig in it FOREVER.
3) She can point to her nose, eyes, mouth, arm, ding dong(bellybutton), and toes when asked.... that is, if SHE'S in the mood.

4)Her favorite word is NO! But here is a list of all the other words she can say...
bye
hi
mom, mommy, MAMA!, MOMMY!!, MOM!!!
(this is how it goes if I don't answer her immediately)
Dad, Daddy, Dada
Nose
Thank You
Uh Oh
Ouch
Dog
Please (although she chooses not to say it very often)
Blanky
Binky (although it sounds a lot like blanky)
YEEEE HAAWW!! (when she's riding her horse)
Nana (banana)
YEAH!!!!
She constantly jabbers, although I don't know what she's saying... she apparently knows exactly what she's saying cuz she NEVER stops talking!
5) This one is my favorite! If you tell her we need to change your bum go get a diaper, she will trot into her room, get a diaper, and come lay down on the living room floor so her bum can be changed! LOVE IT!!! Now I just need to teach her to throw it away!
6)She no longer has to be on reflux medicine! Thank heaven she outgrew that! What a nightmare!
7)She LOVES to pick strawberries out of our strawberry patch in the backyard.
8)Luckily she's not too picky of an eater. She will eat just about anything we give her. Although, she's not too fond of squash. I think it's a texture thing.
9)She loves to play at the park down the street. She will go down the slides all by herself. They're pretty big too!

10) She loves to read books! She is constantly dragging them out of her room for me to read them to her.

11)She is really outgoing she always has to say hi, thank you, and bye any time we are at a checkstand. And she always has to say hi to anyone we pass in the store.

12) She loves to dance. Anytime she hears music she will start shaking her head and bouncing up and down.

13) She loves to ride on the riding lawnmower. If she ever hears it start up and she's not on it... BEWARE!!!! She can throw a tantrum like nobody's business!!

WE LOVE OUR GIRL SOOOOO MUCH! She has brought so much joy into our lives. Her temper can be trying at times, but she's so stinking cute it's hard to let it bother you too much!
