Okay, so I'm sleep deprived



I am so tired that I forget I even started this blog for the girls. Emma wakes about once a night with a nightmare. Ava wakes about 3 times to eat. This is why sleep deprivation is a form of torture. Ava is now sitting & rolling but refuses to sleep. I used to trick her into sleeping by letting her play in her crib - she's caught on and now screams at me when I leave her alone.

Ava's favorite toy of the week is her telephone - the old rotary dial with the eyes that go up & down when you pull it. Emma's favorite is her sister - she just can't leave her alone.

Dad & I took the girls sailing down in the TriCities on the Snake River last weekend. It wasn't Emma's first trip, but it was the first one she'll remember. This was, however, Ava's first trip. She liked being on the boat and Em kept talking about how fast we were going!

Ava has 2 bottom teeth and is eating rice & oatmeal cereals, avocado and has chewed on an apple and some frozen green beans. She loves to try to feed herself and will reach for any food near her.

This is Emma's official thank you to everyone who gave her a birthday present - we're still working on some we can mail out. The pic of Em by herself is on her first day of preschool. She loves going to school and gets sad on Friday when she has to take the day off!

Ava is such a good sitter! And Emma school clothes are adorable. That's terrific that she loves school so much. I'm sure that will last her whole life!
