Growing up too Fast

Ava informing us that we need to lower her crib again because she now likes to stomp her feet when we try to put her down for a nap. sneaking out of her room

Checking out the tub. She enjoys bath time. My current favorite picture "Can I get in yet Mom?" Several things have happened in the last week and a half. Ava can now pull herself up to a stand. It is SO cute. I will try to get a video of it. She now signs "more" constantly. More ducks, more peas, more baby planes, she wants more everything! It is so fun to communicate with her. Her appetite has increased significantly. We are so blessed that she is not a picky eater. She will eat anything we put in front of her. I was so surprised that she enjoys eating cooked peas. I think the play group has motivated her to crawl faster so that she can keep up with the older kids. Her favorite "toy" at the moment is a door stop. She loves the "boinnng" sound it makes. We are now trying to get her to play in her room by herself for 10 minutes a day (it is totally baby proofed). This past week I also cut 10 1/2 inches off of my hair and donated it to Locks of Love to be made into a wig. Greg and I love it. I plan to keep it this length for awhile.
