Little Girl All Grown Up

Ava is now 19 months. She is getting to that point where she is transitioning from an infant to a young girl. With that being said, there are these cute pajamas that are in her size now! See, she's very petite. She is at the bottom of the normal growth chart. She could probably still wear clothes that are 12m but they wouldn't last as long. 

These button down pjs are absolutely precious! When I showed her her new pjs, she said, "Awwwe!" She was excited to put them on knowing that they were different. She ran to the mirror and twisted her torso back and forth staring at herself in the mirror. I had never seen her react that way to clothes. She's definitely all girl. 

In my family, for Christmas Eve, we open one gift. They are pajamas. We usually let the kids open a toy gift as well. I will have the Christmas pajama set for her to wear Christmas Eve. 

I got these at Target. I mean Target is my all-time go-to place for just about everything. If I can't find it there I go to Amazon. I literally don't have any shopping in my town. I have to drive forty-five minutes. Ugh! But... I love the country. 

These are super cute as well! There are other choices in the Target link that I posted up top, but these are my faves. 

Do y'all have any pajama's that y'all love for your little munchkins? 

Happy Halloween Eve!

The Evolution of a Smile

Don't you just love that stage of a baby when they actually understand the concept of smiling for pictures? I sure do. 

When Aiden was Ava's age, I had to ask to see his teeth for him to smile at me. For about a year or see after that every time he smiled for pictures, he had this huge teethy grin! It's so cute to look back on now.  

Ava on the other hand has taken to picture-takin' quite well. It might be the fact that I've got a huge phone screen, because she loves to look at her picture after it was taken. Back in the good ol' days I used my phone for calling and my camera for taking pictures. 

This is her "I'm happy and it's bright outside," face. 

This is her, "Oh you're taking a picture... of ME," face. 

"Cheese!!!"

I hope y'all have a "cheesy" day! 

I Never Would Have Believed This

Ok, first of all, forgive the mess. Remember, I am still unable to get up and do normal Mommy things like clean. I should be walking without crutches in about one or two days! 

Second of all, here is Ava. Besides the fact that she has the cutest lil' ponytail ever, she is enamored with the TV. This is not some ordinary tv program that rots the brains of adolescents. This my friends is an educational DVD. Some of you may have heard of the DVD series called School House Rock. They have one DVD that is all of them rolled into one! It's the 30th anniversary edition. 

I was introduced to this by a mommy friend. I initially thought this was the best for my son. He enjoys it, but it has become a lifesaver for me with Ava. Ava does not like being in the car for long periods of time, and this has made all the difference.  Let me tell you, it will have your kids singing along, and you'll remember things that you have forgotten as well! 

So, if any of you are looking for tv programs to watch, and that are completely wholesome and educational... this is it! 

By the way, this was ten minutes later...

Let me know what y'all think!

Have a great week ~ D
