Fishin'

This summer we spent almost every weekend at Skiff Lake. Ava loves to get out fishing with her Dad and always has at least one catch. Here are some pics of Ava and some pics she took of Pete.

Ava Starts Pre-Kindergarten

She couldn't have been anymore excited for her first day back at the Y. Very different from last year when she cried every morning for weeks when I dropped her off!

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Happy 4th Birthday Ava!

New Scooter and displaying her age!

Ava was a lucky girl this year. She got to have 2 birthday parties. One with her grandparents and one with her friends. Her actual Birthday is on August 4th and we had a mini birthday celebration from 6:00am to 7:00am that morning. Ava is always asking for a balloon so we had her room decorated with a helium balloon and her birthday presents waiting for her to open. She was thrilled to wake up to all this!We also had soccer that evening and so we had Nanny & Grampy and Papa over for some ice cream cake afterwards. Then on Sunday 3 of Ava's friends came over to help her celebrate. The girls were all gorgeous in their party dresses! I won't go in to detail of how I can't believe she's 4. All I can say is she's one amazing little girl!

This and That

At Skiff Victoria day long weekend. Black Flies were out in full force!

Mother's Day 2010

It's been a while since I've posted anything. First 3 months of pregnancy had me tired and in bed as soon as the girls were so now that I'm getting over that tiredness I hope to keep up with the updates. Here are some pics from today.

Future Stylist?!

Ava thought it would be fun to get ALL her hair clips and barrettes out and put them in my hair...here is the end result!

A Slipp Christmas

We had a great Christmas this year. Ava really was in to it and got really excited. I can only imagine what it will be like when Leah starts getting it too! The Holidays are fun but boy does it ever wipe the energy out of me. I'm kinda glad January is here and am hoping that everything slows down for just a bit.
