New Tooth!

Tooth #9, her first molar, has popped through.

So, we're doing well. The summer is slowly slipping through our fingers, but we're trying to make the best of it. Last night (Tuesday) Ava and I were outside in the evening waiting for Becky to get home, and we were playing in the front yard. She swung a little, then wanted down. She was SO cute... We laid down and looked up into the tree, looking for the birds we could hear. She had her little head on my arm. She was there for a long 5 minutes, Then when she sat up, she got all excited (you'd have see it, her eyes get all big, then she squints and her shoulders hunch and she makes these sounds) "Birds" she says, and points up at the power lines. Sure 'nough, there's two birds on the line. She's so smart and cute, it's almost too much to take.

So life's good. I'm riding my bicycle to work everyday (4 miles round trip) and we're family riding when we can. Ava loves to be in the child seat on the back of the bike. It's so good to be outdoors and active, I can't believe how good I feel.

We started out summer with visitors. The Oklahoma crew paid us a visit. It's quite a change to go from a single one-year-old, to three kids, 1, almost 2 and 5! But we had a great time.

Gage being a bad influence on my daughter. Oh wait, she probably showed him how to do this. It's one of her favorite places to be!

Gage and Angel playing in the water on our back patio. She's such a bundle of energy. We had a great time.

Ava's problem is that when there's activity, she won't give it up and nap. So I took her to her swing in front, and she cashed out. Now it's a great place to get her to relax!

Talk about health nuts... We planted (Becky and Kristi) a garden. This is the initial planting. I'll get pictures of how well it's doing hopefully soon. We eat the onions regularly. There's onions, bell peppers, tomatoes and strawberries. If it goes well, we'll add more next year.

Phone to her ear, lip stuff in her hand. Is she her mother's daughter or what?!

Still waiting at Bronson. This is as good as checking Ava's Blog at the Public Library. I can't get over the pictures. Gage and Ava looking out the window is a classic. Asleep in the swing is out of this world. "Doing one of her cute poses" is so neat!!!! Keep up the good work on this wonderful blog, Dan. You won't regret it.
