Ava Jane

Wassup. Mom let me hijack her laptop so I could introduce myself. I’m Ava Jane, in case we haven’t met yet. I’m liking the big wide world so far. My only beef is the fact that I’m tired all the time. So tired. T-i-r …

Okay, sorry about that. I’m back. Anyway, let me introduce you to my people.

Here’s my daddy. (This picture is so old.)

I love him so much. And I’m pretty much the best thing that’s ever happened to him. I hear people talk about how much he’s changed since I came along–about what a sweet softie he is.

But seriously. I love that pile of man-goo.

Here’s my momma.

I love her an awful lot too. And pretty sure I’m also the best thing that’s ever happened to her. She’s my milk factory. Even when the workers went on strike, she kept production going. I respect that.  I like it when she sings to me but she really needs to add some new songs to the mix. But I forgive her. Because I love her.

Sometimes my people say I sound like a Velociraptor. I don’t know what that is, but it must be an adorable creature. On another note, the whole “tummy time” thing is seriously overrated. I am not amused. Just stop.

    Ava, your post is 100% accurate. Such a bundle on knowledge already. You are probably the most loved 2 month old I currently know. We love you too! Keep high jacking your moms blog, I like your posts WAY better!!! 😉

    Sweet Ava girl! I miss you! You’ve probably forgotten what my face looks like, but we have a long time to rectify that situation! The Lockabys love you very much! AND… We love naps! So come to our crib & snuggle soon!!

      I could never forget your beautiful face! If I could talk, I’d tell you how much I miss and love you back. Can’t wait to snuggle! xoxo

    Pawpaw and I miss your sweet face every day – we were spoiled after staying with you over two weeks!
    Don’t be too hard on your momma about needing more songs to sing to you – she’s new at this “mamma” thing, and with being back at work, keeping up-to-date with the milk production, taking care of you (laundry, etc.) she’s like you – t-i-r-e-d). Keep blogging – love it!
