San Diego

The sticker on her bottom came from the toilet paper roll in the hotel, cute, huh?

This seems to be her new smiley/laughing face (who knew her eyes would get even squintier? hahaha)

A good night's sleep

Ava's new vibrating teether! Finally, one that she will use as a teether.

Lauren sure can get her laughing

She's also learning these new mischievous looks, cute or evil? Hmmmm, you decide.

On this night, we were walking back to the hotel when we heard Ava babble "Da, da, da" & "Ba, ba, ba" (which is the Vietnamese word for dad). So finally her incoherent babbling has turned into something much more recognizable.

Though I wanted to hear mama, she did not disappoint. After dinner that night, we wanted to check out the hotel pool & hot tub and as we were passing Ava around, Jon was passing her back to me and everyone (except for Jon) clearly heard her say to me "Ma ma." Pretty darn cute! I just wanted to mention those things so we could remember what date this occurred. It may seem mundane, but we were excited.
