Fun with cousins

This past Saturday night, 3 of our nephews (Joey and Ava's cousins) spent an evening with us. Joey had so much fun and looks up to his cousins. Actually, all of us had a really good time. I made a gourmet meal of macaroni and cheese and broccoli. Then "Wuncle Jason" and little Danny made banana splits for everyone. GoGo (me) and Nico snuggled on the couch while Wuncle Jason popped some popcorn and put Polar Express on.

Look what Wuncle Jason taught little Danny

This past month

We've finally made some time to post some pictures. Ava saw Dr. Santo 2 weeks ago. Our baby girl weighs over 18 lbs. She is really enjoying table food here and there (especially when her daddy feed her ice cream). She is crawling, standing and walking while holding on to furniture. Joey is the only little boy I know that gets excited to see his pediatrician. In the car on the ride over, he explained to Ava that Dr. Santo was "his Dr. Santo" and that he loves her and she loves him. I think that might have changed since his Dr. Santo gave them both flu shots. We'll see how excited he is next time he gets to see her. : O )
