Ava Turned 2!!

Ava turned 2!! She is definitely a one of a kind Ava Lynn!! She is so full of spunk and personality, and a true leader! Her older brothers always are wanting Ava to come play with them (they do still have their sibling rivalry), but you know they love her and she is a good influence on helping her brothers to try new things. She is a dare devil with no fear. She treats everyone she sees as though she has known them her whole life. She greets them with a big "HI!" and then wants to be picked up or given a high five. She calls both Ayden and Gavin "Gavy", is very good at saying sorry and always wants a hug and kiss. If they don't kiss her she will keep going up to them and say "kiss" until they do it, which then sometimes turns into a fight. She LOVES princesses. She has these 2 little tike princess dolls that she ALWAYS carries around and freaks out when she loses them along with her two princess slap bracelets that she got for her birthday that she can't live without. She does a great job with playing pretend, it amazes me, she is our only girl and I never realized how early all this girly stuff starts!! She has a princess cd that she loves and knows the words to the best of her talking ability and knows all the dance steps without looking at the show. I swear she has such a photogenic memory, she seriously could watch a show once or twice and already have all the steps down. She is so fun to watch, we really can't get enough of her. She does have a little temper and knows what she wants and knows how to throw some serious fits! We love our Ava Lynn and hope she knows how special she is!

In her pictures she was wild and did not want to sit....she posed herself for each picture


Ava doing a little dance


She had to have this ball


She held her foot up until they took a picture of it


This was her first pose. She ran in holding her princess dolls in her hand and had a seat and was ready to go!


We weren't going to open her presents until her Dad got home, so I got her some dollar store toys to celebrate with her brothers during the day, but I think this was about all she needed!


First thing in the morning trying on all her accessories


I made sure I got enough ballons for everyone to play with!


She is an obsessive little girl and had to have everything on her that she could wear and everything that she could hold she wanted, so she had a little break down, but as always came out of it and was happy as can be. That is our Ava, hot or cold, nothing in between.


For lunch we had pizza and Root Beer


We then went to this bounce house during open bounce hours, and it was great. There was hardly anyone there and my kids loved it!


There were even some flat ones Easton could play on


All of my kids loved this slide! I was shocked that my boys loved it as much as they did. They couldn't get enough and kept going on it. The walk is a pretty steep walk, now I know I am pregnant and that kind of held me back, but man, I could only do it a few times, but I was also holding Ava or Easton while making the walk up there. Ava walked up a few times on her own and she is a little fighter. You could tell it was hard for her, but she did it!


Worn out after being there a few hours


We got back and had cake and opened presents. No, I did not make her little dog cake even though I would love to say I did. I thought it was pretty cute! We got that for her and had cupcakes as well.

We got her a little baby alive and a few princess pollys and a little princess CD player and a little walking kitty. She was very spoiled, but we hope she had a good day.


Ava excited about her new toys


Daddy working hard at undoing all the packaging and figuring the toys out


Very proud, you can tell she will be an attentive mother =)


Checking out her new toys!
