Ava Is Growing (...a little!!)

Hey everyone :) Well, we went to the doctor yesterday & had Ava's 2 month check-up. She is only in the 25th percentile, so she's just a tiny little thing! She hasn't even reached 10 pounds yet. We're still dressing her in newborn sized clothes & using newborn diapers!! The doctor said everything was fine, though because her growth has been consistent, so that was a relief! She had her shots too, which I think was harder on Mom & Dad than on her. There's nothing worse, I'm finding, than seeing your kids in pain! She was a trooper though & even got an elephant sticker for being such a good girl :) What on earth are you supposed to do with an elephant sticker for a newborn?? Anways....
My two best friends from Florida, Aprile & Erin are coming to visit me today. We have been friends since 8th grade & have such a history together. It's going to be so great to see them!! This will be their first time to meet Ava, so I'm sure it will be a baby focused weekend! Thanks for checking in with us! Have a happy weekend :)

8 Weeks Old!

Here are a couple of pictures from the past 2 weeks. Rachel's whole family was in town visiting this past weekend & we had a really great time! Of course we took tons of pictures, so stay tuned for more! Grandma bought Ava a bathing suit for the summer, so of course we had to try it on! Ava will be 8 weeks old tomorrow--so hard to believe! We're going to the pediatrician to have her immunizations done. I don't think she knows what she's in for!! Hope you're all doing well!

Welcome to our new website!

To make things easier for our friends and family, we have decided to start a new website. We will be canceling our baby jelly beans account soon, so you can now find updates on our family here. This will be a place for us to post pictures of our family (ok, mostly of Ava!!) and to post journals about what is going on with us! Check back often as we will be updating this page often! We send our love!
