Quality Time

I am on my days off at work, so I have been spending some quality time with my baby girl :) Oh... and Gary too! I can't believe that tomorrow Ava is going to 7 mo. old! Time just flies! I can't wait to see Vicki and SKJ tonight, I love it when old friends come and visit. I miss those girls, and I am so glad that they are going to be able to come. I just hope that I am not too lame now that I have Bean. She is my world though and I wouldn't trade her for anything.

Gary is working all weekend which is good for my bills, but I hate being here when he works all weekend. I think that we both need to find better jobs! Thats not going to happen anytime soon thats for sure, not in this state anyways. Oh well, hopefully after he gets back from being overseas then he will be able to find something doing what he wants.

I am definatly going to try and go back and get my Masters this year. Thats my mission for the year. Hopefully that will help me in the search for a new job, but we shall see.

Ava wants me .... so off I go!! :)

Oops...

So I said that I was going to be better about updating this blog... and here we are.

I had an amazing Christmas, and Ava was an absolute riot to watch on Christmas morning. She was eating the wrapping paper like it was going out of style. I think that in the end she made out pretty darned well. She has some Grandparents that love her to death I think. We had a long Christmas weekend and then we headed up north skiing for a week, which was great. I wasn't able to go the whole week so I had to suffer a little bit of time without Ava which was really tough for me. I will attach a video of Blake from up north it is great, he is pretty talented on the board thats for sure!

Ava is growing like crazy, it's hard to believe that she is almost 7 months old... crazy. She is now 20 lbs. No you didn't read that wrong. She really does weigh just about as much as a one year old... :) I am so proud of her. Obviously she isn't having a hard time moving from formula to baby food. She loves everything that she eats.

Gary has been working really hard, and Training like crazy to head over seas this year. It's weird to say this year. I am used to saying that he is going to leave next year. I just seems to make the whole things a lot more real. I don't know what I am going to do without him. He is my right hand man. He means that world to me and in all honesty he is my world :)

Well Bean is sleeping, which means that Mommy should head to bed too...
