It's almost Ava's birthday month...

It's almost Ava's birthday month...and how fitting that I found a bumblebee background to celebrate her life! Since Ava gets jipped by having to share her birthday month and also for having an "early in the month" birthday, I decided that we'd start celebrating her birthday month early...with a new blog background!

For those of you who don't know, Ava's "animal" is the bumblebee. Her 1st room was full of bees on the walls, we love to find clothing with bees on it for her, and she got some cute bee items for Christmas this year. She is our little bumblebee, such a precious little girl.

And, to kick off the celebrations, here is an Ava "funny"...
This was the conversation between her and the girls'/Colin's babysitter, Valerie, last Friday:
Valerie: "Ava, when is your birthday?"
Ava: "I don't know...my mom will tell me!"

The funny part was that she really didn't seem to care about knowing WHEN her birthday was--yet she has planned the theme of her birthdays for the next 5 years, so we know that her birthday means SOMETHING to her! I have been very tempted to celebrate her birthday on a more convenient day of the week this year, especially since she doesn't know the exact date...but we have 2 VERY observant sisters that won't let a sneaky mom trick like that happen!

At any rate, Happy Almost Birthday Month, Ava!
