Bathtub Fun!..... (warning: rated PG for nudity)

Earlier this evening, I was getting ready to give Ava a bath, which is tricky now that she is so busy and mobile. I had her clothes off and the bathtub was filling when I noticed I had no towels in the bathroom, I had them in the clothes basket in our room. So i left her sitting on the floor of the bathroom while I ran to get a towel real quick....
When I came back, this is what I saw...
She was standing up, holding onto the tub, and what you can't see in the pictures is that she had just peed all over the floor while standing there...
She was so proud of herself!... What a treat! :)

9 Months!!!

Wow, I can't believe it's been nearly 3 months since I posted, I have been so terrible at keeping up with this!
Ava is 9 months old!!! Time has flown by, as usual. She has been very busy learning how to crawl, babble new words, and even growing two new teeth!! Her first tooth poked through a week ago today, and now she already has her two bottom front teeth showing! Her personality is showing more and more every day.
Here she is at her 9 month doctor appointment... it's hilarious to see how much each procedure becomes as she realized just how interesting everything is. Measuring her head was a piece of cake at her previous appointments, but this time it turned into some what of a wrestling match involving me, Ava, and the doctor...
she weighed in at 21 lb 7oz, 28 and 3/4 inches tall, and 17 and 3/4 inch head circumfrence, all of which are in the 80th-90th percentile. She is growing like a weed!!
