Out and About

AQVD hasn't really been herself the past couple of days - we're hoping it's teething and not a preview of the terrible twos. But we've managed to eek some smiles out by doing a little naked dancing, pizza eating (a must for New York babies), and bonding with gama and gampa. Today she rewarded us by adding a new phrase to her repertoire -- "rock an roll!" Indeed.

Busted!

AQVD spent some time in a patrol car this weekend - you just never know what's going to happen at a buddy's first birthday party. In other news, there's been lots of romping around Isham Park and the playground, ringing around the rosie and pizza eating. Good times.

Tutu time!

The rain has really been coming down lately but, if you're AQVD, that just means more time for dancing around the living room in your pink tutu.
We were all lucky to have a visit from Grandpa Opa this past week, too. Thanks for the nibbles and good times!
And, finally, thanks to daddy for coming home and enabling some serious, two-handed hair twirling. Happy Boppy dada!

Pat the bunny

For the long weekend we made our much anticipated return to the Berkshires, where Ava got to see what it's like to live in a house with stairs, a dog and - you guessed it - a bunny. That poor bunny.

Egg-cellent!

We weren't sure AQVD would get the concept of an Easter egg hunt but apparently there's something innate about hording eggs and putting them in a pretty basket, thoughtfully provided by the Robbs and Webers.
And while some people may be distracted by the playoffs or baseball season, Ava Quinn remains focused on what's important: College football.

Ava Quinn or Snork?

AQVD fans will be happy to know that our little muffin finally relented to having something put in her hair the other day. (It's been quite a battle.) This week also saw another milestone - the quitting of the bottle. Next up? College, and maybe potty training.

Mmmm, Lunch

Apparently, we're not the only ones who think AQVD is scrumptious. Little Avabear turned a few heads during her first trip to the zoo in San Antonio last weekend. Other spring break activities included stroller pushing with grandma, chihuahua petting/torturing, making music with daddy and getting her swim on with mommy. Not pictured: Ava slurping tofu at her grandparents' favorite sushi restaurant and Ava refusing to sleep on the plane, to and from Texas.
