Tag 4 you

This is a fun TAG and it is extremely easy too. You go to your pictures and in the 4th folder, pick the 4th picture. It's as easy as that...You can kind of see her tooth in this one
This the 4th picture in the 4th folder. Ava is 8 months in this picture and you can sort of see her first tooth poking through on the bottom. She has grown so much :) I tag Staci, Momma K, Natalie, and Amy

Working on a full house...


Well it's official....we have finished our paperwork and our home study and we have been APPROVED for our next adoption.
In the adoption world this means we are...(drumroll please)
"Paper Pregnant"!
So now the waiting begins....and another amazing journey will begin to our next miracle. We have been so blessed to have Ava in our family and we love her birthparents so much. I am sure it will be the same with our next little one. I know that the wait can be long or sometimes short, but I am content. I know that we will be chosen when the time is right. For any that are interested in seeing it, our profile in now on the LDS adoption website. Click HERE to see it.

Last weekend

Some cute pictures of this past weekend. We had fun up north, but were grateful to leave the COLD and come back to the warmth of sunny southern Utah. While Max was having so much fun picking pumpkins and carving them with Grandpa & Grandma Bassett, Ava and I got to go up to Chuck E Cheese in Orem and have an awesome visit with Ava's birthmom. Ava loved all the fun games , but was terrified of the Chuck E Cheese singing band. We had a blast, and I am glad the weather cooperated so we didn't have to drive in any storms.

Ava loved this duck game

What a fun day!

so much hair to work with

Ava, since the day she was born, has had a lot of hair. I sometimes feel like I do the same thing with her hair everyday. I was reading my friend Rachel's blog and she had her little girl's hair done like this and I had to try it out this morning. Ava looks so adorable. It took awhile and a lot of fruit snacks to get her to hold still for the 20 minutes. So worth it. She looks amazing.....until nap time...that is:) the Blog that Rachel got this hairdo from is called " Rockin Shorty Hairstyles"and the you should check it out if you have a little girl.
