Today we took a day trip to Fort Walton Beach. We went to their famous "Gulfarium" because Ava's favorite things right now are fish. She is fascinated by them and gets very excited. Our favorite part of the day was the Dolphin show. They made Flipper look like a novice. Ava is still having issues with her teething but we have found creative ways to cope. We are now busy planning the details of our move. We think our final move out day will be Feb. 21st. Have a blessed week!

Happy Fat Tuesday/Super Tuesday! Here are the rest of the pictures from the Family visit. Ava smiled the majority of the weekend because she was so excited to be the center of attention. The big news of the day is that we received orders! Hooray! Greg has to report to duty in VA Beach by March 3rd. We are tying up all the loose ends this week to figure out our actual moving day. In Ava news, she accomplished a huge milestone last week. She laughed for the first time in front of her Mommy and Grandparents. It was one of the sweetest sounds we have ever heard. Her daddy got her to laugh again yesterday. We now believe she is teething because she is constantly chewing and sucking on anything she can get her hands on (it reminds us of Penny as a puppy!).
