Events to Enrich Our Lives

Experiences we've had with Ava over the last couple weeks:

1. The time she spilled a glass of water on my plugged in and turned on (thankfully CLOSED) laptop. Oh boy. Those were good times.
2. Shaking her groove thing daily when The Backyardigans comes on. Conversely, I get chills up my spine when this happens.
3. Her ever increasing speed with walking. She frequently joins us in the kitchen when we're making dinner and latch on to your leg like an anchor. Put her back in the living room and she'll nearly beat you back to the kitchen. This has caused multiple double-takes because of the shear impossibility of it. We've tried having one of us be in the kitchen while the other entertains her elsewhere, but apparently the kitchen is THE place to be.
   
4. Her first bloody lip.
5. Her first time biting her tongue while falling and making it bleed.
6. I was gone for three days and when I saw her again she had suddenly become content with wearing sunglasses. She looked like the Malibu-based version of my daughter! What happened to our customary tug-of-war where we try to put them on your face while you try to pull them off? She's growing up so fast.
