This week on iheartfaces the challenge is funny outtakes! this is one of my all time favorites! i was trying to get a sweet shot of ava and hollis together {i think he was about 3 days old}...anyway, love how wild ava is looking and poor hollis who was resting sweetly had been disturbed for sure. poor baby! so my wild girl and sweet boy...that about sums it up!
xo, & feelin' good!
we had such an awesome weekend with family from minnesota! i so wish we lived closer to my cousins, aunts and uncles...they are so awesome!
for now...here's ava at the jump jump again showin' off for the fam! she loves this thing and is determined to get a flip going...still hasn't gone over, but working on it! so cute!
hope you all had a great weekend! {more pics of our weekend of fun coming soon!}because i'm preeettyyyy sure this girls got enough for all of us! ha! she cracks me up! sorry about the missing head, i actually just grabbed my camera and clicked trying to catch the moment before it passed. actually surprised i got most of her in the frame without looking, that's a first! i bet you can imagine what her face looked like...yep, teenager stuck in a toddler body...it can be scary sometimes! she is so silly!

xo,tonight we saw a firetruck go by...
ava: see the fire bus?
me: fire truck?
ava: yeah. fire bus.
i love her.
#3. we call him "squeaker" {see #2}
#6. he seems to be more fascinated with his hands and feet {& his sister, of course}than any expensive, loud, light up toy we have around here. {a simple kind of man...love that}bo's nanny {the one we live nextdoor to} pretty much rocks our socks! she's in her 80's and you would never ever know it...she is incredible. always doing something nice for someone {family or not}, is very involved with her church family and makes time for outings with friends {yes, she's one of those batty old ladies struttin' around town in a crazy red hat}. every year around valentine's day she has a tea party for all the great grandaughters {the ones that live nearby, anyway}. not too many of my pics turned out too well...the house is pretty dark and i just have this thing...i hate shooting in auto...but sometimes i just need to suck it up and switch the dial to the green box...booo! {sometimes i wish i had gone with the 5d markII back at my birthday...oh well, that's over and done...now i just might need a bounce flash!} anyway, here is nanny with the grandaughters {& hollis...of course he came, too!}
sydney, kamrynn, jewelia, maddy, ava, nanny & hollis 
check out the "tea pinky" little missy ava is using....soooo appropriate! ha!
i came stumbled upon this through another blog i love reading...had to post it {especially with the love day coming up} can't wait to spend the weekend playing in the leftover snow with my little ones and telling my man how nice his arse is! {it really is}
today it snowed...not normal "melts when it hits the ground" texas snow, but real fluffy, puffy, sticky, crunch under your boots snow! seriously, it looked like a winter wonderland! i guess we got around 9 inches total so far....& it's still snowing! yay! {of course i love it, i don't have to go anywhere!} so, ava got to go out and play in it again. it seems that every time it snows she just gets more and more comfortable with it and loves it even more! i loved watching her. she was walking really slowly listening to the crunch under her shoes, she was eating it {and eating it and eating it} she even tried to do a front roll in it! ha! silly girl!
so here's a picture of ava with her snowman...you can barely see it because it's so white out there, but we made one {my hands froze, but we made one!}. nothing fancy, candy hearts for eyes {they weren't added yet}, sticks for arms. simple and quick.
& our stroller came today! yay! can't wait to get out walking with it! 
this weeks i heart faces challenge is "kisses". i immediately thought of this sweet shot of my two sweethearts! not much has changed since then {except they are both a bit bigger!}, ava still l.o.v.e.s. smoochin' on her baby brother! 
xo,
today we have a valentine's tea part next door at nanny o's house with maddy, sydney, jewelia, & kamrynn! then off to grams for the big super bowl! should be a fun day! {glad i fought off that nasty migraine that decided to surface yesterday. boo!}tonight at dinner:
ava: {toot}..."you tooted" {said to grams}
grams: excuse me? {like, you have that backwards, girlie!}
ava: yes, excuse you.
& then she proceeded to eat a cheeto. ha!
xo,
a
ava made her second trip to the dentist today and i knew they were going to actually try and clean her teeth...i wasn't too sure how she was going to do...she is the typical two year old and everything is very moment to moment with her.
we go to the most fabulous pediatric dentist and half of their waiting room is full of toys! ava loves it, i think she could play there all day!
then the tricky thing is getting her to go back to the rooms when they call her name {you know, without a scene!}
checkin out those pearly whites! {seriously a pro, right?!}
getting her teeth cleaned by ms. staci & the tickle toothbrush!
she did so great and didn't have a meltdown until we had to leave. she tried to sneak back into the waiting room to play some more. {i actually would have taken her, but bo was home with hollis, so i knew i had to get back so he could get ready for work.} so yeah, we had the whole toddler meltdown right there while i was paying...on the way to the car...getting into the car...
