Grandpa Dean and Grandma Dolly are visiting Tennessee this week. We ended-up meeting them half-way to Nashville this past Saturday. We went to O'Charley's and to a Toys 'R Us, in Chattanooga. It was a short visit, but Ava got some spur-of-the-moment Grandma and Grandpa-time, and vice-versa, for a few hours.

As you can see in these pictures, Ava got to show off her new walking skills for Grandma and Grandpa. Ava also cracks up at just about anything, these days. She thinks she is pretty funny, and cackles when you try to chase her.

Grandma and Grandpa spoiled Ava at Toys 'R Us, with a new Baby Einstein video (Baby Neptune), a bathing suit for our upcoming "swim class" in March and a pink Atlanta Braves hat (which ironically has a big "A" on the front, working double-duty for "Atlanta Braves" and for "Ava"). Thank you Grandma Dolly and Grandpa Dean! We can't wait to try out Ava's swim-legs!

About the maribou headband (and other headbands with large bows you may see on this blog)... I searched for the biggest and most ridiculously-huge bows I could get my hands on, for Ava. Thus the pictures with these fun headbands and bows. Such sassiness :-) Interestingly enough, Ava will keep these headbands on her head for quite some time.

Yesterday was warm enough for me to take Ava to the park near our house, after day care. She enjoyed toddling around in the woodchips, taking a few spills. She tried eating the woodchips on a few occasions, but I managed to get them out of her hands before they were mouth-bound...

We hope you make it a great week. We're looking forward to Spring, around these parts!
With love,
Shelly and Doug

Ava is GORGEOUS! How nice for you to spend time with your Dad and Dolly.
Now....about the bows. Let me first say, I let the sweet minnie mouse bow in the last post go without comment, but the pink fluffy feathered boa demands a response. You are super extreme. I can't believe Ava leaves these on her head, and that her NORTHERN mother puts them there!! You two are so cute. I will admit there is nothing like dressing your sweet girlie girl in bows, I love it! Give her a big kiss for us! Molly
