It has been COLD here! I think it has been cold most everywhere. So much for Global Warming... Ha ha.

The kids are great!

Some things about Ava I might not have mentioned: She got her first little toothie the day after she turned 8 months old. She is able to get from lying down to sitting (like in her crib at midnight!) She is crawling (low man crawling on her belly). I have started giving her rice cereal! Yay!! She love it as long as it is mixed with breast milk. She won't eat it mixed with water. I guess I'll give her a week before trying something else.

Nathan is such a little chatter box. He is learning his letters and numbers by sight and loves to sing songs all the time. He is so sweet to his sister but has a hard time sharing his prized 'things' with her. Where on earth did her learn "MINE"? I didn't teach him that. I don't think they need to be taught that word. It comes pre-programmed.

Here are some recent pictures.

Ava and my sister's daughter, Katie. Katie now weighs MORE than Ava and is 4 months YOUNGER than Ava. PUT that middle finger away Katie!!
