Favorites


I love the spirit that a new baby brings into our home. Everyone (well, sometimes not Braden) is so sweet and loving whenever they see Ava.

The kids are so excited every morning to run into our room so that they can hold Ava. Whenever they get home from somewhere it is a race to get to Ava first. They just love her so much.
I love the way they speak to her, always so nice and sweet. I wish they could remember to do that with each other!!
Here are a few favorite memories of the past few weeks:
The night before Ava was born...no wonder she was 9 lbs...look at that belly!


There is something so appealing about a man snuggling a baby!


Ava and her cousin Sydnee


Not loving her first bath!



A very special Great Grandpa with his 2 newest great grandkids


Seth and Ava

This is Kason's favorite thing...letting Ava sleep on his shoulder.



Braden's constant position....smothering, oh I mean loving his new sister!


I can't believe she is already three weeks old! Oh how I wish I could freeze time.

I love the pics with the kids. The one of Braden is really sweet. It looks like little Ava will have plenty of cousins her age!

Your family is so cute. I love pics of your family loving Ava. I have been trying to take a lot of pics like that myself.

she is so stinkin adorable!!! love the socks on hands. whatever, you're belly was so cute and tiny, not sure how you ever fit a NINE pounder in there. I know, I always get a little sad when they get older, fun too, but a little sad. Especially right at the first. I'm happy for you guys!!
