Spending time with Grandma!

Oh by the way, Happy REAL 1st BIRTHDAY, JACK!

A play date with cousin, Jack & Grandma

It's hard keeping that shaggy hair out of her face

Grandma was teaching Ava how to ride a baby trike

Ava was so excited, she'd shriek.....
and Jack would cry

but that would not stop her, it only seemed to encourage her

uhOh, Jack is happy and he's got all the attention

Ava was assessing the situation

before she planned to attack....

and ruin his happiness

and take back all the attention

she's a bully and we're not quite sure how to curb it....

at least she has a cute smile?

So enough of the trike, we thought we'd distract them with the toy box

this time Jack knew what he was working with...

I think he handled himself quite well.....so it was a nice ending to our trip to Texas. Ava hopefully now knows she can't push everyone around....until, well, the next trip.

She takes the best naps after play dates...so thank you to those that contributed to making this happen!

I think she's starting to remember faces, people, and places, which is nice for all parties involved.
