So much to say!
My little missy is talking up a storm!
We have now entered into a new phase. Everything is "My".
Yesterday when Ava came home our conversation went a little something like this.
Ava "I want cake"
So I give her mini cinn. buns from costco
Ava "Happy Birthday! My Happy Birthday!"
Today when I asked her to say Goodbye to her Dad, she said " Bye Bye my daddy. Bye bye my kitty".
This weekend was a pretty good one. Phil was sick, and in bed most of the weekend, which is unfortunate. I don't understand a lot of what is going on. Every time he goes to the doctor (on average, once or twice a week) they give him new medicine. He is now on up to 10 different pills each day. Thats just the different types of pills, no including how many doses are in a day or how many he has take per day. Poor Phil. I hope this passes soon.
Ava came home on Friday and we had just enough time to play with some bubbles outside. My neighbor came by and told us about the Air Races crash. Ava played a little longer outside with the water and bubbles. While I was giving Ava a bath Phil looked up the Crash and called his Dad to make sure he was ok and not at the Air Races that day.
What a crazy accident. A plane crash into the box seats killing the pilot and injuring many others. Over 50 people were taken to the hospital, care flight and ambulance.
We had a fun weekend full of bubbles, and friends!
We went to a picnic, and met some friends at the park, went to a baby shower and then had a great visit with my sister in law and the kids!

Juno, Luka and Ava played really well together. Watching Ava and Juno play together had to be one of the highlights of my weekend. Both are at the "My" stage. "My Ava" "My Juno". It was cute to watch them together.
It was a fantastic weekend.
Ava also had fun playing with Addison at the baby shower!
Monday I got word that Ava is changing classrooms. This was heartbreaking for me. She is getting older. She is no longer my baby. She is moving up to the Squirrel classroom. It takes about two weeks to transition, her teacher, Ms Alicia said that Ava was the most well behaved kid in the classroom. Ava got to participate in the "station" part of the classroom. Ava listened, and paid attention and actually did the projects that she was asked to do. She didn't color on herself at the coloring station, which I guess it common.
This morning when I was getting her ready, she said "my turn" so she put on her pull up, all by herself. It took a few times but she got it. She put on her pants by herself. She attempted to put on her shirt by herself. She missed on the of arm holes so it looked a little funny but she did it herself. She brushed her teeth by herself. I helped with her socks, and she chose to wear her water shoes to school (which she picked out and put on all by herself).
All this independence is wonderful, but it makes me sad because she is getting bigger and older.
Monday and Tuesdays I have class. I truly miss being home with my daughter, even if its only for 2 hours. I'm thankful that I can pick her up from school early. I'm grateful for her school because she is learning so much. I honestly believe that she is learning to talk so much because of the kids she is around and the lessons she learns at school.
She is truly amazing. Everyday she comes home and says something new and amazing. Everyday I learn to look at the world from a 2 year old's stand point. Its so interesting. I love that she can communicate with us now. She can tell us what she wants for dinner. She tells us what she wants to wear to bed. She can tell us if she wants water, milk or juice.
She can tell us if she has boogies.
The other day I was getting ready to put a diaper on her and she starts telling me "pee pee" "poop" so I run with my naked child and put her on the toilet. And she peed! She said "oopsie!" I said "No no, you did great! Good job baby!" We high fived!
Everyday gets a little more interesting.
I love this stage. I love my baby girl. I love the weekends we have together.
