It's All Good

So Ava starting giving a thumbs up as her new response to things that she likes. If you ask her if she likes her dinner, she'll give a thumbs up. If she really likes it, she'll use both thumbs! That's when I know she is one happy little girl. And the funny thing is, is if she is doing something naughty that she knows she shouldn't, she will give me a thumbs up to reassure me that she's doing great and I don't need to interfere. She is such a funny girl that is SO full of personality! She makes me and Chad smile and laugh like nothing else.



Another funny thing Ava has started doing is tackling Chad to the ground to give him eskimo kisses and butterfly kisses. And when she's done with that she'll push his face to the ground and say "night night." And when she's ready to play again she'll yell "wake up!"



I just have to express how happy I've been the last few days that it has been warm!!! Finally!!! I'm sure all of you moms completely understand, but trying to keep a toddler happy and entertained all winter inside becomes very hard to do. Ava has been spending every minute outside that she possibly can lately. I'm so happy that Spring feels closer than it did just last week. I feel very grateful for seasons, too! Fall has always been my absolute favorite for some reason...Maybe it's the colors, the rain and the smells and the feeling of a cool breeze relieving some summer heat. But as I get older, I'm learning to love and appreciate each season for something different. Spring definitely brings a feeling of renewal and energy! That's a welcomed feeling after hibernating all winter indoors. Living in Utah definitely has it's advantages with experiencing all 4 seasons. I shouldn't complain as much as I do about the weather... Anyway, here's to some hope that Spring will be here soon and so we can enjoy yet another season!
