Tattel Tail

I love when Ava tells on herself...she was hanging out in our closet this morning while I was drying my hair, I checked on her once, she was fine, a moment later she came running out of the closet with a big grin flailing her diaper around and pointing at herself and her diaper; apparently she figured out how to remove her diaper...okay I laughed and was almost done drying my hair, so I let her be naked...WELL, she came back with a very serious look, grabbed my hand (to know Ava is to know her grab is more of a demanding hand gesture to come with her RIGHT NOW), doing her uuuhhh uuuhhh sound, pointed in the closet, and pulled me forward all the way in to point out where she had PEED on the floor!

up close and personal with the animals

she was happy to be back at the zoo...


she of course tried eating the cracker before
giving it to the giraffe, but the giraffe gave her
a sloppy gooey lick anyway,


and the goats made her giggle!

Just because I LOVE this picture

At the Hamburg Inn...where all the politicians go during an election year, but where Ava enjoyed her best pancake experience yet! Harris, Nick, Dejan, Ava, and myself had THE best breakfast here and it almost made me wish I had three kids....hahahahahahahah, only if the other two are Harris and Nick and only if they come out 11 and 8....they are WAY less work at that age. :-)

Super Awesome!

How cool is it when your nephew tells you... "well cecca, I think you are super awesome!" That probably made my year! Thanks Nick! I have to say I am so glad I decided to keep Harris and Nick up WAY past there bed time talking...I know one of these days they aren't going to want to do that with me. We talked about crazy things and I learned Harris likes to take benadryl, "because it kind of makes me feel like a zombie but yet still makes we want to do things and not go to bed", and Nick would like to live in an underwater world because "being able to breath under water would be so cool!"

Also, I would like to note I had THE FUNNIEST conversation with four year old Anna (ny niece)a few days ago. It was the first time she had actually talked on the phone and I was so glad it was with me. We talked playtime, cartoons, who was coming over to who's house, and that Ava "can go ahead and play with her doll's stoller even though it was her's". Okay, thanks Anna!
