Ava Turns 3!!

I can't believe my little girl turned 3!! The time has flown by! I'm kinda sad about it! She is so independent now! talks so much! and says lots of funny things! She told Grandpa Pugmire the other day early in the morning that he stinks like cows on a farm (referring to his morning breath). She tells her dad that he is ridiculous all the time. She goes up to strangers and tells them her name is Ava and she is doing good and she is free (3) now! She copies and remembers anything anyone says! (especially naughty words). Not sure I am loving her being so independent, she wants to climb in the car herself, buckle her carseat all by herself (which takes forever!!) she wants to climb in and out of the bath herself, open and shut and lock all the doors herself, climb into bed, brush her hair and do it herself, dress herself, pick out her silverware, push any and all buttons herself, the list goes on and on!!! I'm trying to be as patient as I can.... Ava insisted for months before her birthday that she wanted a "heart themed" birthday party she is obsessed with hearts! anything with hearts she has to sleep with right next to her and take everwhere we go! So I tried to find as many heart things as I could at this time of year! I think it turned out great! It was fun seeing family and old friends as well.

We had to have a heart shaped pinata




Grandpa and Grandma Pugmire spoiled Ava this year and she got her this slide and swingset from costco! She is obsessed with slides and swings and the park, so now we don't have to go far, she would live on this thing if she could!

We Moved!!

Some of you may know we have been contemplating moving back to Utah. I have wanted to since we pretty much moved up there since my family is down here and Tj's is as well now! We had gone back and fourth for a while but we finally decided it was the best decision for us, so we packed up some of our stuff around the 4th of July and moved to Utah. We are loving it! We have babysitters now, sun, some time for ourselves! It's been great! I do miss my friends in Washington and hopefully we will be back often to visit!
