Our New Ride!!

So after a lot of research and alot of trying to figure out what kind of stroller would be best for our family, we came across this one and it was perfect. All the quad or triple stollers were way to wide to get through doors and either way to long or wide to get into our car. So this is the perfect every day stroller for us that we can take anywhere and know we will be able to fit through aisles and doors of places we go as well. We have been really happy with it. We thought the boys wouldn't want to sit in the front and would like to be togher in the back, but it seems to be a compatition on who can be in the front, and for the most part if Ava is unhappy, she wins that spot because she does the best up front!

Ava's 6 month stats



HC - 17in Weight - 14lbs 11oz Height - 24.5 in
Ava is now working on sitting up and loves to bounce!! she can't get enough of it, she loves moving those little feet of hers. She has also started solids, which is no longer helping her sleep through the night because of the 2 bottom teeth she has coming. She has been giving kisses by grabbing our face and coming in with an open mouth, it's very cute. She has also learned how to grunt and makes this grunting noise all the time, very different from her girly squeels.






And the boys have been LOVING being outside this summer and are always going to the door saying "side, side" There favorite treat has been popsicles
which they call "sicles" They are trying really hard to get there words out. Another favorite word of theirs has been "movie" and they grab the box (VHS tape- yes we have one!) they want to watch and say "watch". Our neighbor gave us a ton of VHS tapes and there favorite movies have been Bear In The BIg Blue House - every time Jordan says a part from the show "do you want to Cha Cha Cha) Gave runs to the TV and says "Movie, Watch" he is slowly learning not to say that phrase unless he want s to watch that movie with them. The other one is the wiggles Ava has even got her eye on that one, she gets mesmerized. Probably not teaching my kids the best of habits, but it sure keeps them from wanting something all at the same time. Gavin has been a big "movie" lover while Ayden is still always on the go.
