Weekend Fun

Ava had a fun weekend that included turning 5 months yesterday. She is progressing nicely, and is definitely a little crowd pleaser, with her constant smiles.

Saturday she came out and supported mom at the “12K’s of Christmas” race to benefit the Maricopa County Animal Control Center. While all participants received a Santa hat, Ava came decked out in her own.

After the race we hit up “The Good Egg” for a carb-a-rific breakfast of pancakes. Ava had fun sitting on our laps playing with the single serving jam and jelly condiments. She may have also knocked a few spoons on the floor.

We chilled out at home the rest of the afternoon and wrapped presents and listened to Christmas carols. We discovered Ava is obsessed with the wrapping paper. Here she is “helping…”

Finally, a birthday bath. I thought it was cute how she has her washcloth. I guess she heard about the bath tub shots that parents bring out to embarass their kids at graduation and other big events.
