Good for you Ava - you have done great.

Is That a Smile?

Stretching out on Aunt Cheryl's nice long legs, Ava looks very pleased.

Our tiny Ava is still little at under 8 lbs., but she is definately growing

and she is very strong for such a little girl. She is thriving and so much fun.

Meeting Aunt Cheryl for the first time.

What fun.

She makes everyone smile.

Everyone enjoys being around Ava. Her Pittsburg Penguins hockey sweater is a tad small.

She is starting to look around.

Here in her Mommy's arms, Ava is taking in what's going on around her. Notice the sockies on her hands - her Mommy puts them on when her tiny hands feel cold.

Ava loves her Daddy. She is very content when he has her in his arms.

Another weekly picture with her Daddy. It is fun to watch her grow from week to week.

With Uncle Greg and Uncle Cory.
