Cousin Mia's 1st B-Day & The Beach

Ava went to Lodi to celebrate her cousin Mia's 1st B-day. She was very excited to celebrate this special day with her. A trip to Lodi would not be complete without a sleep-over at her Abuelo's house. The weather was really cold so her Abuelos brought some outside fun indoors...with a slide. She had so much fun going up and down the slide.

We had beautiful weather here last weekend. On Sunday we decided to take a trip to Half Moon Bay. Ava was really excited go to the beach. During the car ride she kept saying Beach, Beach, Beach! YAY! Once we got there she enjoyed playing in the sand but was not too fond of the ocean itself. If we got too close to the waves she would say "I'm scared" and want us to pick her up.

Mia opened Ava's gift and yay it's a ball.....

Ava quickly swooping in and taking the gift she had just given Mia.

Happy Easter

Unfortunately this Easter Sunday Ava was not feeling well. She had a fever and just wanted to rest most of the day. Mark did set out some eggs for her in the front yard to find. She enjoyed looking for them for about 10 minutes and then she was ready to go back inside.
Good thing Ava was able to attend an Easter egg hunt last weekend. She was feeling good and the weather was beautiful. We dressed her up in a cute Easter dress and she had fun looking for eggs in the park.
