14 Months Old



Ava was 14 months on Sunday. She started taking steps the day before Easter. Everyone said she would be taking 6-8 steps within a week of her first steps.... nope! It took her 3 more weeks to work up to 3 steps in a row. She now takes a couple of steps each day trying to get from one piece of furniture to the next. Its very cute :)

She is starting to say a few more things. Number 1 word is "dada" after that she loves to say "hi" and "num num" and every so often we can get her to say "mama" and "wow". The cutest thing is when she 'pretends' to eat and says num num! She knows 3 signs now. "more" "all done" and "eat" It is so adorable when she signs! I want to teach her more.

Ava is getting so big. She is wearing 24 month and 2T clothes. Seriously how can she be this big? I haven't been able to get good measurements of her weight or height. I think she is 33 inches tall but she is wiggly! Lol.

Ava got her 3rd tooth yesterday! She's catching up in the tooth department! She got her first tooth April 1st but it took nearly 6 weeks to get her second and then 6 days after that to get her 3rd :)

She is so much fun and I am excited (no matter what people tell me) for her to start walking full time!

she is soo adorable! oh and i was so excited when jude started walking because then i could put him down in public places and stuff and not have him get all gross... and they can run and play. i think its way better than crawling!
