This post is full of Christmas, first birthday, and a bath. The holidays and TAKS test have absorbed all of my blogging time! I promise to post more after March 5...unless any of you are interested in helping me grade 63 essays a week. Ava is growing into a very sweet toddler. She can say dada, mama, kitty, doggy, necklace, bye bye car, bites, that?, and no. She can identify nose, eyes, mouth, ears and bellybutton. She signs more and eat. Her favorite things to do include turning on off the light switch, popping bubbles, taking baths, feeding the neighborhood pets on the back porch, eating kiwis, and swinging outside. She can also give sloppy kisses. I can't wait to be home with her this summer. We are planning to play, and swim, and visit many friends!
