-She changes her clothes about 30 times a day. Roughly every 5-10 minutes. She tells me, "MMM...don't like this shirt. I need a new shirt." And so forth.
-She takes her diaper off the second it's no longer dry. She says, "Mommy, i peed. I need a new biaper!", as she hands it to me. Or she says, "I pooped. Change my biaper. My bum hurts."
-She loves to sing and dance. She will spend an entire day singing "the itsy bitsy spider" while twirling around in circles until she falls down. Then she giggles, gets up, and does it again.
-She loves to follow her brothers around the house and boss them around. One day Max was playing quietly outside by himself. She poked he head out the door and yelled "Hey Max! NO fighting!!!"
-One day I forgot to strap her in her car seat. She didn't say a word, just waited until we were on a very busy street, quietly climbed up the back of my chair, poked her head around to face me and said "Hi there, mom!!!" I almost crashed and she couldn't breath she was laughing so hard.
-She can count to 13 without help. Then it's "16, 14, 17, 13". Counting is her favorite part of hide-and-seek.
-She says please and thank you without being prompted. She also spontaneously tells us that she loves us. Melts my heart.
-She talks really well. She surprises us everyday with her vocabulary. She will randomly come up with ideas, and I have no clue where she gets them. The other day she said, "Mommy, how bout when daddy gets home, we make doughnuts?" Which was interesting because I have never made doughnuts.
-We battle everyday over outfits (when we have to leave the house). She refuses to put on things she doesn't like, and never wants to wear anything weather appropriate. She is very skilled at dressing herself. She will even change her pajamas three times before she goes to bed!
-She always refers to our house as our "new house". She will say "I don't like new house, mommy." Or, instead of saying "I want to go home", she says "I want go to new house". One day I was changing her diaper and she said "Um, don't like new house. Want build nother house!"
-She is my best eater. She loves food liker her Momma.
-She climbed out of the crib after her nap a couple weeks ago. When I saw her walking down the stairs, I said "Ava, how did you get out of your crib?" She thought about it for a minute, then said "Mmm...Jump!"
p.s. The only way I could get her to stay still was to give her a cookie...I took a lot of pictures without realizing that the camera was on manual (all blurry). By the time I figured it out she had no more smiles or patience. And she ripped out her pretty barrette.

I love that she loves to dance, she must've been born with a dancing jig as well. :) She's a cutie!
