Conversation this morning

Max: Hey Mom , can bears be dead?
Me: Yes
Max: Do they go to heaven?
Me: Yep
Max: Giraffes aren't aloud in heaven
Me: How come?
Max: They aren't tough enough

A SUNBEAM , A SUNBEAM

Max is now a sunbeam and he loves it. All week long he asks me if he can go to Primary, and we have a count down of how many days until Sunday. If you ask him to sing the Sunbeam song he refuses but he loves to sing "Follow the Prophet" to himself as he plays with his toys. This picture is his first Sunday as a Sunbeam. ( Sorry it is so blurry, I had my camera on the wrong setting)

Busy... Busy... Busy

Ava is sure busy these days. Grandma Bassett can attest to that after trying to hold her throughout sacrament meeting on Sunday. I have been taking pictures the last couple of days to send to Bianca and I thought I'd post them up on the blog. She is growing so fast that I get a little sad thinking about it. I sometimes wish I could freeze time and enjoy these kiddos for twice as long!

About a month ago Ava learned to pull herself up and stand, she is hardly ever sitting anymore

Playing with her Baby
Look at all those teeth
Hugs and kisses from big brother
Standing again :)
For some reason she thinks it is hilarious when Max waves a tool on front of her face

She's going after it....Watch out Max!

Christmas Visit

We had a wonderful visit with Ava's birthmom and her family a couple of days after Christmas. We met at Chucky Cheese and it was the perfect place. Max had a blast running around playing the games....he especially loved the basketball game. Ava's birthmom was so nice to give us gifts and she made Ava the cutest, softest baby blanket. You can see from these pictures where Ava gets her good looks! Lucky girl !
