Ava Two


"She is delightfully chaotic; a beautiful mess.  Loving her is a splendid adventure."
                                                                    -Steve Maraboli



Happy Birthday my beautiful girl!
In lieu of Ava turning 24 months, here are 24 things that make Ava, Ava.

1. Quick to smile.  This girl can go from a full blown scream to laughing her head off in seconds.
2. More, more, more.  Always uses the sign for more.
3. Busy.  I can't get her to sit still for more than 5 minutes.  
4. Stands.  The girl doesn't sit.  She stands on chairs, grocery carts, strollers, benches, you name it.
5. Stroller?  Speaking of strollers and carts.  She refuses to sit in them.  It makes running errands a complete disaster.
6. "Peeeeze".  Basically she gets whatever she wants whenever she says it.
7. Beauty Queen Wave.  She acts like Miss America as we carry her up to bed.  Throws her head back, laughs, blows kisses and does the infamous wave goodnight.
8. Bottles.  Still on toddler formula.  I know. We're awful.
9.  Eater.  Great at trying most anything and everything.
10. Messy.  That's it.  
11. Fearless.  Will try anything.
12. Rap.  Loves to listen and dance to rap music.
13. Squawks.  Doesn't like it when anyone approaches her things or space. 
14. Won't watch tv.
15. Instigator.  When her and Alec get into mischief, I know 9 times of 10 it was her idea.
16. Pretty.  Loves to get dressed up in her pretty Sunday dresses.
17. "BYE!" Doesn't really say hello to anyone, but will wave and say goodbye to anyone and everyone.
18. "What's that?" We then tell her, to which she always replies, "Oh".
19. Doesn't care.  She couldn't care less what we think, say or do.  She does what she wants.
20. Shower Hog.  When I turn the water on she doesn't care if its warm yet or not.  She will hop right in and hog that water the entire time, letting it hit her smack in the face.
21. Angelic.  No matter what chaos she brings to the family, she always follows it up with something sweet.
22.  "Hold me".  She either adamantly wants to be held or put down.
23. Shoes.  Like any other girl, she is obsessed with shoes.  Shoes of every size, color and kind.
24. Strong.  She is a tough cookie.  I can already tell that she is not going to be swayed by others in life.
