morning glory...

every morning after ava wakes up she actually has to have, what i call her "wake up time". we will sit on the couch together with her sippy full of milk and usually elmo or curious george will join us (on t.v. and in stuffed animal variety). this will last for 5-45 minutes...depends on the morning. and then out of nowhere, the girl will get a burst of energy and snuggle time is over and the busy girl is ready to go.and go.and go.and go....

this is one of my favorite times of the day, i am a snuggler, ava is usually not, so i just soak this up for as long as i can and hate to think of the day when she wakes up and doesn't need this time anymore...sniff, sniff....anyway, here is miss gorgeous drinkin' her milk, watching elmo, getting ready for a busy day!

this day, elmo and abby were being paleontologists and talking about dinosaurs!
