Grad Party







We attended our first graduation party of the summer, my cousin Bethany's. Here are some pictures of us enjoying the party and the weather!



Memorial Day Weekend







We took a trip to St. Cloud for the holiday weekend. Nicole ended up bringing Mason by my dad's house and Ava was very intrigued with having another baby around. We were also able to get a picture of Randi, Ava and me at my mom's house, sitting on my Smurf picnic table. This table has been around for a LONG time and we thought it would be fun to take a picture of us all with it. It ended up being a busy weekend but was great to see family!

9 Months Old


As most of you know, we have been very busy trying to take care of Ava and her constant ear infections. This picture is way overdue and I missed her 8 month as time got away from me. Ava weighed 18 lbs. and was 26.5 inches long at her 9 month check and was a healthy little girl other than her ears. We met with an ENT last week and it was decided to get ear tubes put in. We had her surgery today and I am happy to announce everything went well and now it is a waiting game to see if the fluid doesn't build up anymore. We are hoping this is the answer to everything as Ava and her parents are exhausted. If everything continues to go well, hopefully I can update this blog more often and let you see what a big girl she has become!

Exhausted

Ava ran a very high temp for most of the week last week, trying to fight an ear infection. On Wednesday when her fever finally broke, she was able to catch up on some much needed sleep and ended up falling asleep in the living room after supper. I couldn't resist taking a picture as we will probably never see Ava this still again :)
