Props For Poison Control

There is nothing like having to call Poison Control to make you feel like a bad mom.

Long story short, Ava got into some "outgro" medicine. I had to call poison control. She only got a few drops. She's fine. But I think it's time to child proof the house. (I know I know, I should have done that a while ago!)

BUT, props to Poison Control. They we were really great. They were kind, knowledgeable, and most importantly CALM. I never felt the need to panic. And not only were they great during the call, but a couple of hours later they called back to make sure Ava was still doing okay.

Though I can dream, I know it won't be the last time I have to make that call.

For Grandparents & Keith

It's been a while since I've put updated pictures of Ava up. She is getting so big and grown up. She's been really sick the last week and I'm sorry to admit that I kind of enjoyed it because for the first time in a LONG time my baby girl snuggled with me and let me just hold her and rock her. She's on the mend now and I'm glad she's feeling better. Here are a few fun pictures from the last month or so.

I'm a little behind, so this picture is actually from Thanksgiving at Uncle Keith & Aunt Natalie's house. Ava loved chewing on the corn.
I've told Chris he better be careful becaues Ava already has an obsession with shoes. She knows where we keep the shoes and always goes over to them wanting to put them on. It's pretty funny.

I think this picture was taken just a few days ago so it's the most recent one I have of her.

Ava LOVES to ride her hippo. She used to push it around all the time and it helped her walk, but then daddy decide to show her how to ride on top of it and now she loves to do that instead. Ufortunately that means mom or dad has to push her around!

Ava has grown up so fast. I'm starting to feel sad knowing that in just six short months, Ava won't be my baby anymore. She'll be the big sister. Crazy.
