Ava's fun birthday


It was a fun day. This morning she got to eat french toast as a special treat (the day was full of special treats!) She got to watch extra tv this morning (Veggie Tales) and then in the afternoon her cousins came over to play, which she loved. Aunt Julie and the kids gave her some fun birthday gifts and some cute handmade cards.
Then after her afternoon nap her daddy came home from work with pink roses for his special birthday girl. She had pizza for dinner (her fav) and a pink birthday cupcake, which she made a complete mess of! Then we let her open her presents, and an 88 cent slinky was her favorite present of all :)
Next, we took her to Dairy Queen for a hot fudge sunday that we all shared. She ended the birthday with a much needed bath.
It was a really good day. I think we went overboard with the sugar, though. She had a really difficult time falling to sleep tonight. Tomorrow will be like detox from all of the sugar!
Thanks for all of the phone calls, cards, and presents. Ava loved it all.
We are so thankful that the first year has been so wonderful! We are so blessed to have such a happy, healthy little girl!!
