Unfortunately our family camera's battery is dead- yikes! No fear Ava addicts, a new battery is being shipped as we speak and we expect to have it within the week. Last weekend for 4th of July we celebrated my Bdad, Bruce Bennett's 94th birthday on the Virginia Beach Ocean Front with Gigi and Aunt Jeannie. We had a wonderful time and were so appreciative of the hotel room they got us with them on the boardwalk for 3 days. It was very relaxing and we loved the quality family time. I will post the pictures as soon as Mom and Aunt Jeannie send them to me. For the time being cell phone pics are going to have to work. We are loving having Greg back for these few weeks in July. Lately he has been putting Ava into overtime training in the pool. She has come such a long way this summer. She can now hold her breath under water, doesn't freak out when she goes under water, can kick with her legs, jumps off the side of the pool into our arms, and tries to "swim" by holding herself up in the shallow end with her arms and kicking. Every morning the first thing she asks me when she gets up is "Momma...Momma.....POOL".
A few new "Avaisms" for you. She now checks the smalls of women's backs to see if they have a tattoo there since Mommy and several of her friends do. She likes to trace tattoos. She also calls all cameras "Cheeses" and says it as soon as she sees one. Finally, today for the first time she actually paid attention to a movie on screen that did not feature Elmo in it......it was the first Harry Potter movie! I turned it off after 30 minutes though because I don't want her to watch the movies till she can read the books with me. She is definitely our child if she is a Harry Potter fan before age 2.
