Happy Valentines Day!!

Valentines marks 11 years together for Aaron and I! For Valentines we got a new couch...and I couldn't be happier! You know you are old when you get excited over a couch!
There it is...couch and his/her loveseat!
SO happy!!! Love this couch!
Here is Ava in "timeout". Malia was upset because Ava pulled herself up and was trying to eat her food!

Ava loves to cheese for the camera!
Here is our baseball superstar!
Ava loves to eat...and from the looks of the plastic bottle perhaps drink, too?
Malia is REALLY upset at Ava for messing with her inside the box. She is not used to Ava pulling herself up!
Happy Valentines from our girls!!!!

Kennedy School!

We had such an amazing time at the Kennedy School in Portland. It is one of the McMenamins...quite unique if you have never heard of it. It is a hotel, theater, bar, ect all in one. We had such a great time with our college buds!!!CWU!
Love these guys!
Here we are in our golden girl shirts...mine says Butter Queen. 'Nuf said.
It was so good to get out with the girls (and spouses!). Thanks so much to my mom and Michelle for taking such great care of the girls.

Where does the time go???

I cannot believe it! Ava is 10 months old! I feel like we were just preparing to have her and now she is 10 months old! She is so adorable. She is pretty laid back, although recently she has had an ear infection that won't go away and she FINALLY got her first tooth...both of which put her easy going spirit to the test. The funniest thing is that Ava is TOTALLY a daddy's girl. Wants him to hold her...gets excited when he gets home...it is so cute.

Neither girl is sleeping that well...poor Malia suffers from night terrors and she is starting to develop a real fear of sleep:-( It's almost worse now because she can verbalize it. But oh...what a journey this is. We feel so blessed to be on it. The experiences we have had has led us to truly appreciate our girls...and even the lack of sleep. Valentines is just around the corner and it marks 11 years since Aaron and my first date. How far we have come...

10 months old and such a sweetie!

Here is our superstar! Malia loves to be front and center. She will sing, dance, and ham it up in front of anyone! Wonder where that comes from?Someone was pooped after Aaron's bday dinner...poor Ava!
