Week 15 (April 9-15, 2011)

9th
Every time Ava gets on her bike she complains that she doesn't have a helmet. Well we don't want her to think that we don't care for her safety, so we got one. As you can see from her face, she is less then thrilled about it! 
Be careful what you wish for kiddo! Lesson learned :)

10th
Today Ava attended a double birthday party! I wasn't feeling well so I didn't go :( but her daddy took her. At the party, all the little girls were given tutus. Ava loves tutus and has refused to take it off!

11th
My fever broke but still feeling yucky. Blah!

12th
Some days it's hard to find a willing photography subject. Even Lola was less then amused by all of this.

13th
I had a temporary moment of health today and decided to (spring)clean my kitchen. I only managed to sort through 3 cabinets, haha! Since Ava now uses cups with no lids we are getting rid of all of these. Ava had fun playing with her former cup collection. 

14th
Although I didn't have much luck in the kitchen, I did successfully organize Ava's closet.

15th
A little story break

Week 11 (March 11-18, 2011)

11th
We went to downtown Kaiserslautern today to poke around in the shops. While in one of them, I stumbled on a very interesting wind chime. I suppose it was a sexy merman wind-chime, LOL! Here is one of those mermen.  
12th
 While at the "sexy merman store", Ava found this little bobble head doggie. Today she named it. This is the first thing that she has owned that she has given a real name to (other then cat or dog). 
What's the name you ask? 
Nah-Na

13th
I bought these stamps forever ago but we have never used them until today. Ava decided to help me clean them off afterward.

14th
We have a cool little contact paper chalkboard out on our balcony. Ava didn't care for it much last summer but she loves it now. Today she wanted me to draw Mickey. I drew his head then she colored in the eyes and added arms and legs. I think it's pretty impressive!

15th
Today was my 3rd aniversary so I should have a photo of my husband and myself....but I don't! I didn't take any pictures today.
Fail! :(

Ava decided to line up her goldfish around the edge of her plate.

Week 9 (Feb. 25-March 3, 2011)

Still SOOC over here! Some of my shots this week are a bit underexposed. Please bear with me. :) It is taking longer then I had hoped to resolve this editing situation (although I do hope to someday be able to "nail" most of my shots in camera).

25th
It looks more like fall around here then (almost) spring. Here's Ava crunching leaves.

Week 8 (Feb. 19-25, 2011)

 Well my editing software is still on the fritz. It's totally dead! I am thinking about buying Elements 9. Does anyone else have that version? What do you think about it? I tried to download the free trial version so that I could test it out but for some reason it won't download. Blah! So all of my shots are SOOC this week.

Feb 19th
This is what happens when a toddler finds hand lotion and decides to help herself. 

Feb 20th
 No more paparazzi please!

Feb 21st
Ugh, more construction! I am so tired of all the noise they are making! I totally overexposed this shot but it kind of looks cool.
Feb 22nd
I told Ava that she could have two of these mini doughnuts. When I returned she had taken every one out of the bag and had taken one bite out of each! Haha!

Feb 23rd
Ava latest flower arrangement from the local florist. I think she has a knack for it!

Feb 24th
Looks like someone tired themselves out with that feather stick!
