Some more fun pictures

I love all of these pictures and since I was too lazy and didn't get a birth announcement out I will share them with you all on the blog. Enjoy!

Happy Girl

Well Ava is full of smiles and laughs these days. Here's a video of our friend Monica (her only Texas aunt) making her giggle.

Clowning Around

Kitchen Remodel nearly completed

So when we moved into our new house we knew we wanted to replace our kitchen countertops b/c they were an ugly 1990's forest green. We weren't too keen on the cheap-looking (pics don't show this) cabinets. Anyway, since Rob's bro-in-law was home from BYU for the summer we decided to take advantage of his cabinet-making skills! (Lucky him right?) Then we figured while we were redoing cabinets and cutting holes for appliances we might as well get some we liked since the ones here were from the early nineties and looked even older! So one thing led to another and it turned into a full redo. So here are some before and after pictures. We still have to do the backsplash but we think it looks pretty fantastic!

When I grow up

Aunt Mellonee provided a wig so Ava could see what she'd look like as a brunette!

Meeting the Family

Abby and Ava got the chance to go out to Utah to see Abby's family. Ava did a great job on the plane and hardly cried at all although changing a diaper in an airplane bathroom is quite a feat! Ava was able to meet lots of her aunts and uncles and her great grandma and grandpa and see her Roberts grandparents again. She spent lots of time with her cousins and several of them were quite fascinated by her and were quite the little helpers. Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of everyone that held her! Bummer!
