Ava-6 months

My, how time flies! Ava turned 6 months old on October 4th, so of course, we had to have a photo shoot for her 1/2 birthday! My friend Amanda (AK's cupcakes) made some delicious cupcakes and cake balls for the celebration. Ava even got to try a little piece of the cake and she liked it!

Ava is growing up so fast...at 6 months, she already has two teeth coming in and she is starting to crawl. She has started to make this funny face where she squishes her cheeks together and blows. She loves to squeal/giggle and she has never met a stranger. She is very friendly to everyone she meets. One of my favorite things that Ava does is when I feed her a bottle, she takes her right hand and likes to rub the bottom of my chin the whole time she is eating. She also rubs the top her head and plays with her hair. She is grabbing her toes and moving all over the place, she is a busy little bee. She still loves seeing her reflection in the mirror, that will always get her to smile. She loves going on walks and looking at all the sights. She still enjoys bathtime too, as soon as she hears the water running, she starts kicking her feet and flailing her arms all over the place with excitement. She absolutely hates the carseat, because she has to be buckled in.

Ava goes to her Nana's 3 days a week and to Central Day School the other 2 days. She loves her teachers and all the friends she has made at Day School.

She weighs almost 17 lbs now and is pretty tall at 26" in length. She is so strong and loves to stand up (with assistance, of course!) as much as she possibly can.
