Birthday Party Prep!
I hope you are enjoying the "12 Months of Ava" posts! I tried to upload pictures with them, but blogger is not cooperating. I will add pictures as soon as I can, though! These posts have been a lot of fun so far! They have brought back lots of memories! Stay tuned for the rest of the months. I will try to upload those daily now until I finish (which will be on Ava's birthday)!
We are having a great week so far. I am spending this week preparing for her birthday party Saturday. We are having a family party! It is going to be at 10:00, and I am planning on having "brunch" foods. We are having breakfast casserole, cheese grits, muffins, fruit, sausage balls, biscuits. Of course we will have cake and ice cream, too! I am SUPER excited about Ava's cake....it's going to be precious! I can't wait to post pictures of it! I have also been working on decorations and stuff. I almost got teary eyed going through the party store the other day. I just can't believe my baby is about to be 1. It truly does fly by!
We have been doing really well with our menu! While we LOVE to eat out, we really need to limit this! We still go once or twice a week, and that is SO much better than how we used to be! Well, I hope everyone has a wonderful evening!

12 Months of Ava: Month THREE
In the third month of motherhood, Ava gave to me:
A Wonderul Baptism!!!
Ava was baptized June 22, 2008, and what a wonderful day it was! She was baptized by her father at Morton First United Methodist Church! She was absolutely precious that day! She did not make a sound during the baptism, and she was beautiful in her pretty dress if I do say so myself! She had smiled many times before this, but this is the first time I remember her just "going to town" smiling! After the service, the pastor had us go to the back door to greet people, and she smiled at EVERY PERSON who walked out that door! It made me melt! Still does even thinking about it! After her baptism, we had lunch and fellowship with people from the church. It was a day we will treasure FOREVER!!!
In the third month of motherhood, Ava gave to me:
A Wonderful Baptism
A Big Move to a New Town
A Family of Three!

12 Months of Ava: Month Two
In the second month of motherhood, Ava gave to me:
A Big Move to Another Town!
We moved from Belzoni when Ava was only 7 weeks old! This was a VERY busy time for us. We were trying to get used to parenthood as well as finish packing up our house. Fortunately, Ava has always been an absolutely WONDERFUL baby!!! We couldn't ask for a better baby. She pretty much slept long stretches at night, and had put herself on a good schedule.
We went to church for the first time the week before we moved. The week we moved was bittersweet, but as I have said before it went very well!
