The weather has been beautiful and we have been spending a lot of time at the park doing Ava's new favorite activity: SWINGING! She absolutely loves it! She usually screams with delight the whole time she is in the swing.

I figured, since they don't charge for the sitting, it will just be something fun to do and I won't spend money.<br />Well, as the day progressed, we had our photo shoot (complete with props, a wardrobe change, and multiple poses) and left the mall to run some errands while the photos were uploaded for viewing in the store.<br />We returned to the mall and after many "unplanned" dollars were spent, I left with 10different pages of prints and 2 framed prints! Man, they sure get you at those places. When we returned for "viewing", they had these huge pictures of Ava printed and framed in gorgeous matted frames just so I could "see how they look". I don't know how anyone could walk out of that place without buying those prints... I mean, what do they do with them, throw them away? It just seemed wrong.<br />So in the end, I couldn't really part with any of the pictures and ended up buying most of them because they were just too irristable(along with my 1 free print that originally was the purpose of our outing).<br />So here they are.... just tell me you could live without buying them... </div><div> </div><div> </div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280265354783419826" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 277px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdFXTeq7bI/AAAAAAAAK8w/76axf6klwEE/s400/ScannedImage-2.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280264528224537858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 316px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdEnMTrTQI/AAAAAAAAK8A/CHZMVzKPtyI/s400/ScannedImage.jpg" border="0" /> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280264550208453202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 246px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdEoeNDOlI/AAAAAAAAK8g/xGsgEEwQ0FQ/s400/ScannedImage-8.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280264539617145266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 262px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdEn2v4sbI/AAAAAAAAK8Q/8zuyC7jWPGg/s400/ScannedImage-4.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280264544107695586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 291px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdEoHehDeI/AAAAAAAAK8Y/Fp6UsiR_mnM/s400/ScannedImage-5.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280265362403710626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 208px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 411px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdFXv3fVqI/AAAAAAAAK9A/CPwtke6RJkA/s400/ScannedImage-10.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280265363246037106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 291px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdFXzAUOHI/AAAAAAAAK9I/llOUoWS4z2E/s400/ScannedImage-11.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280265370070998514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 291px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdFYMbg3fI/AAAAAAAAK9Q/k2fi-EllLrU/s400/ScannedImage-12.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280265357005809698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 285px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SUdFXbwh6CI/AAAAAAAAK84/rG-okiAk_Ao/s400/ScannedImage-9.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div></div>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-9575320034452796742008-12-14T21:57:00.000-06:002008-12-14T22:43:22.781-06:00Holiday Magic at Brookfield ZooWe took Ava to Brookfield Zoo today so she could meet Santa for the first time and see the zoo's holiday decorations. When we finally got to "Candy Cane Corner" where Santa and the Mrs. were, there was a long line and Ava had just fallen asleep in her stroller, so we decided we'd catch him another time.

(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....<br />When I came back, this is what I saw...<br />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...<br />She was so proud of herself!... What a treat! :)<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSIG62WGxTI/AAAAAAAAJY8/G6cWjrDLftk/s1600-h/DSC03100.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269782122067313970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSIG62WGxTI/AAAAAAAAJY8/G6cWjrDLftk/s400/DSC03100.JPG" border="0" /></a><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269782114658131746" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSIG6avnnyI/AAAAAAAAJY0/5GMbjFtJnHU/s400/DSC03098.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269782109000734722" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 266px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSIG6FqymAI/AAAAAAAAJYk/rbpv2yH8Q2M/s400/DSC03099.JPG" border="0" />Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-846246919851050052008-11-03T17:49:00.000-06:002008-11-17T17:59:34.504-06:009 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!<br />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.<br />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...<br />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!!<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269780106161421682" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSIFFggr_XI/AAAAAAAAJYc/JzMBZx8chfM/s400/IMG00158.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269780105281246210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSIFFdO1lAI/AAAAAAAAJYU/qptecwKkfUM/s400/IMG00153.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269780098693836370" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSIFFEsRrlI/AAAAAAAAJYM/XpOxsfNqC0s/s400/IMG00156.jpg" border="0" />Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-18579446383136715602008-11-01T15:17:00.000-05:002008-12-17T15:18:59.611-06:00I'm Gonna Get You!<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Nc79YyTF1sM&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Nc79YyTF1sM&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-48229512936886602812008-09-17T01:16:00.000-05:002008-11-18T01:20:43.987-06:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSJsrO6wlgI/AAAAAAAAJrY/Xdo1l-15SdE/s1600-h/DSC02605.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SSJsrO6wlgI/AAAAAAAAJrY/Xdo1l-15SdE/s400/DSC02605.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269894003971626498" /></a>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-2810086877850900942008-08-02T13:00:00.001-05:002008-08-02T13:00:56.687-05:00Ava Giggling at Uncle Eric!<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bw5OEFg9jGU&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bw5OEFg9jGU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-57888271153334376242008-07-27T13:03:00.000-05:002008-08-02T19:12:42.002-05:00Ava's BaptismThe baptism tunred out beautifully. Ava's Nana and Papa came in town from Davenport and lots of friends and family were there to celebrate. The baptismal gown Ava wore is over 100 years old and has been worn by 18 people in the Wilberg family starting with my dad's Grandmother Elinor and her brother Art Kramer in 1901.<br />Here is a group shot of the whole family after church...<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229987055294189650" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SJSlhGKzkFI/AAAAAAAACbg/K2rXuyIAfXo/s400/DSC03741.JPG" border="0" />Here we are trying to get Ava into the gown at church before the service. We changed her at the church for fear that she would spit up in it or it get spilled on if she had it on before then.<br /><div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229983952598293234" style="DISPLAY: block;

Didn't go very well the first couple tries. The very first time, I even had the video camera out to record her first few bites of solid food. It didn't turn out as cute as it sounds... she ended up choking and spitting it out and making the most confused and disgusted facial expressions I have ever seen her make. Although it sounds funny now, no one was laughing when it actually happened. AJ even did a "finger sweep" maneuver while she was choking in hopes of getting any extra food out of her mouth.... :)<br />Tonight we decided to give it another try and it actually went quite well. Most of the cereal ended up on her, on me, on her bouncy seat, and some was even flung across the kitchen when she tried to grab the bowl out of my hand. I'm pretty sure she kept some down though, either way, we made some progress.<br /><p> </p><p>The initial shock...<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216403922520935410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRjutbQi_I/AAAAAAAABiQ/gJ-IdHaG2Q0/s400/DSC01698.JPG" border="0" /></p><p>Oh... so I'm supposed to swallow it? <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216403924416993634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRju0fUGWI/AAAAAAAABiY/qvFg49naPxQ/s400/DSC01699.JPG" border="0" /></p><p>Hmmm....<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216403931982696978" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRjvQrHkhI/AAAAAAAABig/fBovGgNWcQ8/s400/DSC01700.JPG" border="0" /></p><p>Okay, not so bad...<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216403946550038930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRjwG8PkZI/AAAAAAAABio/kblsxzAr0QY/s400/DSC01703.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216403951168481058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRjwYJXZyI/AAAAAAAABiw/UW1XiA0IxgQ/s400/DSC01704.JPG" border="0" /></p>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-43748553731572956012008-06-25T17:41:00.000-05:002008-06-27T17:42:18.950-05:00Ava and Daddy<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ETKYwzdP_rw"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ETKYwzdP_rw" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-46584310845657894182008-06-22T22:56:00.000-05:002008-06-26T23:16:41.716-05:002 Things...There's two things that I cannot imagine life without.<br />I know it's possible, because I can hear my mom saying it right now... "we never had that when you were babies," but I just don't think I could live without Ava's swing or her jungle gym.<br />These two things can keep her entertained and happy for time periods I didn't even know were possible. The person who invented these two things must be some sort of genius!<br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216407244132236258" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRmwDZGu-I/AAAAAAAABi4/6kJQS-J9dMc/s400/DSC01691.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216407248890774466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRmwVHoQ8I/AAAAAAAABjA/hkL2BNGegfA/s400/DSC01692.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216407254874900354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRmwraWx4I/AAAAAAAABjI/NAUlZ1bm-YQ/s400/DSC01695.JPG" border="0" /> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216407266234490002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SGRmxVusXJI/AAAAAAAABjY/ua28POwuMXg/s400/DSC01694.JPG" border="0" />Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-30372712971866850032008-06-15T21:56:00.000-05:002008-06-19T22:09:23.495-05:00Giggles!<div>Ava has been starting to giggle and sometimes even break into a full fledged belly laugh that ends in this high pitched squeal of joy. It is hysterical. Some days we just sit and laugh at each other. She is starting to pack on the fat rolls too.... the number of creases in her little thighs seem to be increasing each day, I love it. I just wish it was as cute for adults to carry around so much extra padding... :)</div><div>She is sleeping like a champ at night... sometimes as much as 10 hours at a time! I feel so lucky and blessed to be able to get a good night sleep. Although it has been hard for me to change my night owl habits. </div><div>AJ has been traveling to St. Louis and Texas almost every week for the past 2 months. He comes home on the weekends though so that is nice. Ava definitely knows him though and just lights up when she sees him. He is the one that is able to get her to giggle the most. We were so happy to be able to celebrate AJ's first Father's Day together. Here are some of the latest pictures...</div><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6M9zmtI/AAAAAAAABWE/_nrE3CZsads/s1600-h/DSC01530.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794978873187026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6M9zmtI/AAAAAAAABWE/_nrE3CZsads/s400/DSC01530.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6U8RRsI/AAAAAAAABWM/iczw8Oz0sl4/s1600-h/DSC01536.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794981014226626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6U8RRsI/AAAAAAAABWM/iczw8Oz0sl4/s400/DSC01536.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6Y7GCFI/AAAAAAAABWU/rs574xoebHA/s1600-h/DSC01541.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794982083037266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6Y7GCFI/AAAAAAAABWU/rs574xoebHA/s400/DSC01541.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6uYTvPI/AAAAAAAABWc/QIY6dwTGJSo/s1600-h/DSC01548.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794987842714866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6uYTvPI/AAAAAAAABWc/QIY6dwTGJSo/s400/DSC01548.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6lyHEzI/AAAAAAAABWk/qKOF2HejfrU/s1600-h/DSC01558.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794985535017778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFse6lyHEzI/AAAAAAAABWk/qKOF2HejfrU/s400/DSC01558.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFseN_LDctI/AAAAAAAABVs/zqdf1PqpmYs/s1600-h/DSC01473.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794219256410834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFseN_LDctI/AAAAAAAABVs/zqdf1PqpmYs/s400/DSC01473.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFseNyEvxMI/AAAAAAAABV0/zvMw_yRYoCI/s1600-h/DSC01480.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794215740294338" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFseNyEvxMI/AAAAAAAABV0/zvMw_yRYoCI/s400/DSC01480.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFseOGHS7fI/AAAAAAAABV8/gSoyTsJRUMI/s1600-h/DSC01529.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213794221119696370" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SFseOGHS7fI/AAAAAAAABV8/gSoyTsJRUMI/s400/DSC01529.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4003701985779502496.post-40911971345499991562008-06-10T14:54:00.000-05:002008-06-22T15:01:22.175-05:00Baby Bjorn<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SF6uzGeTVqI/AAAAAAAABWs/Xpz2tB-Twpg/s1600-h/DSC01467.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5214797611475883682" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_S2d2HwGA-bc/SF6uzGeTVqI/AAAAAAAABWs/Xpz2tB-Twpg/s400/DSC01467.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Ava loves to go on walks in the Baby Bjorn...</div><br /><div></div>Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17183074702955600799noreply@blogger.com1
