I'm Walking!

She started walking on Tuesday, May 12th!  She is now walking all over the house and barely crawls anywhere.  It's funny to watch because she is such a petite girl! Sorry it's sideways.  I don't know how to flip it!  :(

Birthday Pics

MY BIRTHDAY.....

CHAIR!!!  Mommy, Daddy and Grandpa and Grandma Cattanach bought me my first chair!  I was so excited when I got it in the mail today and Mommy couldn't wait to put it together!  The chair is pink with white polka dots and has her name embroidered on the back of the chair.  She loves it!

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

Our newly decorated....

Family Room.  With the help of our friend/interior decorator, Sharon (Shari's Mom), we redecorated our family room.  We sold our old sofa and loveseat and bought a sectional.  We love it and this has become my favorite room in the house.  We also bought a new rug and curtains that coordinated with the sectional.  We also painted the walls a light blue color.  

Just Having...

...FUN!  Here are a few pictures of Ava just having fun over the past few weeks.  

Playing on my zebra!  She loves this thing and will get on and off of it all day long!

Pushing her baby around the house on her walker.  I think we might need to buy her a stroller for her baby soon!  :)  If she can't find her baby, she will use anything but she really likes to have something on it.  This morning, she put my cell phone on it and walked around the house.  Crazy girl!

This is a normal expression for Ava!  :)  

Crawling up on the entertainment center.  She loves to play with the stereo and thinks she is pretty cool when she turns it on and off over and over again!  :)

Daddy built her a fort in the entertainment center.  She loved sitting there with her pillows and books.  How cute!

Fun with Gavin

Ava's friend Gavin came over to the house to play last week.  They had a lot of fun playing with all of the toys.  Here are a few pictures of them playing together.  

Almost 1!!

Visit the link below to see some of Ava's 1 year pictures.  My friend Katie took all the pictures.

  She did an awesome job! Thanks Katie!

Baby Steps

Ava took her first steps today!  YAY AVA!!!  After some practice using her walker, she was standing against the wall and turned around and took about 5 steps to get to a toy.  Now she is trying to walk all over the place.  Her confidence is building and she's getting more steady.  It won't be long before she's walking all over the house on her own....hopefully by her birthday in 11 days!  :)  Here is a video of her walking from Mommy to Daddy.
