Wow! Is it really already 2012, and did I really just turn 29, and will me daughter really be 2 in only a few short months!!! It's true, and I love it! It has been months since I have posted on my personal blog. The Fall and early December months were very busy! Lots of photos in the fall colors, and family photos for Christmas cards.

Here is a grab bag of photos :)

park play

It is amazing how in love kids can be with the park. Whenever we pass one driving Avayah is sure she lets us know by yelling Weeeeeeee. She LOVES swinging. I dont think she would ever stop swinging if it wasnt for us making her.
















































A nap is the best way to end a fun afternoon at the park. I still can't beleive how big she is. She use to look so small in her crib. She now looks like such a big girl! She will be ready for her big girl bed soon! ....tear.....

Kissy-kiss

Such small things can make a parents heart gleam with joy - while slightly filling eyes with tears, and smiling bigger than you ever knew you could smile.

This past week Avayah gave Andy and I our very first Kiss. It was amazing! She leaned in and with her little lips puckered perfectly she made the biggest muha sound. Daddy has never been so happy. He always said he couldnt wait for the day that she would kiss him back with a real kiss. So precious so loved, we are so lucky to have this beautiful girl in our lives!



Avayah also learned how to look at the camera and say Cheeeeeeese with a big camera ready smile!!! Could I be anymore happy! Finally I got a few photos of her face! She ususally faces her back to me while mommy paparazzi is snapping away. YES for the corny cheeeeese photos!!!!

Driveway Art

(If you would like the music to play scroll to the bottom of the page and click the play button.)

Another hot day.

I have been eagerly awaiting the warm weather so we could wear our summer clothes, splash in the pool and color the driveway with a rainbow of chalk.





Well we have had warm weather here in Wisconsin the past few days, I should say we have had HOT weather. Mid 90's and humid! Avayah and I played outside a lot of the weekend, she learned to color beautiful scribbles on the cracked driveway. Mommy drew Avayah's favorite things on the diveway. (I think I have use up most the chalk! FUN!) We have a cat, flowers, bunny and her name beautifully on displayed for all passer bye's to see. ;-) Avayah was covered in chalk and has a nice powdery chalk butt. I love it!






























Someone found her nah-night. She adores her blanket. This blanket makes all good in Avayah's world. Oh if life was that easy. I think I need to find myself a blanket that makes all good.


































Daddy gives lots of smooches!!




Flying into the sunset

Bikini Baby

Momorial Day was HOT! After the long drive home from the cabin, we had to enjoy the warm weather outside. I filled up the tiny pool we have and put Avayah's suit on. It was so cute. She on the other hand didnt care much for it. She kept patting her belly as if she was missing something.






























Mommy






Happy Summer!!!!

Sunshine Baby-Vay

Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children, and ourselves. Capture these moments with photos so you never forget, so you can look back at the wonderful times you've had, and the times that are to come. Family is an amazing amazing thing.

































Avayah is now 1 year, 1 month and 1 week old. TIME FLYS! I know I always say this. It is so incredible the new things she pulls out of her back pocket everyday. New words, understanding exactly what I am saying to her by responding with a strict "NO!" when she does not want anymore applesauce, but strongly points at the banana on the counter saying "nana....nana", and nodding her bald head up and down fast. She definitely knows what she wants and how to get it. She is turning into a little girl who loves being outside. She loves the flowers we planted around the house and the bird feeder that hangs on our deck. When birds fly to it she points and loudly says, "Oooo, Oooo". She loves the baby doll the auntie Bri and uncle jake gave her for her birthday, and best of all she loves to cuddle. Mommy LOVES this. Saturday mornings cuddling on the couch with a blanket and cartoons, evenings after dinner and a bath curled up on the couch until she dreaming sweet dreams. I love these times, and would never trade them for anything!
