Family Fun!


Monday after Christmas we decided to keep things low key.  While Auntie Em and the kids played with their new toys we hung around Gigi's house before heading over to play at Auntie Em's house.  We enjoyed hanging out and playing together.  Of course we had to get a photo of the cousins in their matching pajamas!  Thanks Auntie Em!









On Tuesday we met Auntie Em, Kailey Kate, Luca, Grandma, and Gigi down at Lenox Mall to ride the Pink Pig.  This is a tradition in our family since Auntie Em and I rode it as little girls.  It was very cold and windy out side so we had to bundle our little girl up!  Once we were ready to ride Ava had to sit on the seat like a big girl!  She barely saw anything since the seats were so high but she was wide eyed the entire time.  After the ride we walked around the mall for a little while and then headed to Grandma's to open presents!  



On Wednesday we met Auntie Em, Kailey Kate, Luca, and Gigi at the Forum for lunch and shopping. One of our family traditions is a Trader Joe's dinner.  So...of course we had to go to Trader Joe's and pick out some random food to throw together for dinner.  After shopping Auntie Em wanted to show us her new school, The Wesleyan School.  We walked through the quad and enjoyed the beautiful campus.   It was getting colder quick so we headed back home to Gigi's to feed Ava her very first solid food...oatmeal!  Ava was such a big girl!  She loved eating big girl food and ate almost the whole bowl full!  





On Thursday we celebrated Ava's 4 month birthday!  We can't believe she is growing up so fast.  Her doctors appointment isn't until January since we aren't in West Palm Beach, but we can tell she is getting bigger and bigger every day!

For the rest of our stay in Alpharetta we enjoyed spending quality time together as a family.  We are excited to see what the new year has in store for our family.  So many wonderful things happened this year.  Last New Years we celebrated the wonderful news that we would be having a baby and this year we are celebrating the joy that she has brought to our lives!!!!
