Welcome to Twenty Ten

WHAT, WAIT, When did 10 years take place? REALLY? I had a great conversation with My Aunt Rosanna and we both agreed the older we get the worse those ten years sound...she reminded me to enjoy every minute of being in my 30's, they are the best, and to just wait, turn 60 and ten years really means something then...that made me laugh out loud.

So much has passed and I hate that I don't spend enough time blogging and writing down our day to day lives. I seem to have my best blog moments at 2 o'clock in the morning, but I 'm too annoyed at the the snoring to even bother writing about my life.

Ava has grown another inch and her brain seems to be in warp speed. Today she asked me for a bowl, two days ago she let me know she needed "wawa" (water) and I almost cried. That's the first time she really communicated something she wanted to me. It's moments like that which remind me why I decided to be a stay at home Mom...I may have missed it, and how cool it is to listen to her form her first words. Mama, Dada, Baba (serbian for grandma), Nonno & Nonna (italian for grandpa & grandma), Tata (a slang form of aunt in italian), Boo, Bird, Ball, Boot, Anna, Wawa, and she says Mailman in a round about way every time he drops off mail.

My favorite new Ava moment....her wearing sunglasses while I call her a movie star. She giggles with glee when I ask her for an autograph and struts off after scribbling on a piece of paper with a pencil. What would I do with out this girl who makes me smile, laugh, and roll my eyes.

That's all I have for today...which by the way has taken me a week to finish. My New Year's Resolution, WRITE MORE so I don't forget it all! Happy New Year to all my friends and family.
