MY HUBBY IS MY BEST FRIEND







These are just some fun pics of us through the last year or so!!

I love aaron!!!!! today I was so sick and in a really bad mood and he came home today and took Ava out of my arms, gave me a kiss and told me he loves me! I know thats what every husband needs to do and he does but its amazing how much better it made my day! It really is so much different when your busy working and with a baby sometimes the important things like saying I love you or giving a back rub or just a simple hug dont get done! I need to be better about expressing my love to him also! He is a great husband and father, with so much love for me and Ava! Sometimes we fight over stupid things or we do stupid things to eachother,but I know no matter what he will always love me and be there for me! HE IS SUCH A GREAT HUBBY! I LOVE YOU AARON!!!

SOME OLD PICTURES AND MEMORIES

AVA is 7 months today I CANT BELIEVE IT


I cant believe Ava is already 7 months! Today I was just watching Ava play with her toys she was talking baby talk like so DADADADA! over and over again and I thought to my self where has the time gone? Before I know it my little baby will be 3,6,10, a teen!!! CRAZY! It feels like just yesterday I saw her for the first time and fell head over heels for her. Her little hands and feet, her cry and her pretty little eyes. Ava has brought such a new meaning into my life and Aaron's. I cant express to you how much she means to me. Like my mother used to say to me, "I love you more then you will ever know, until you have kids of your own!"And now I truly understand what she meant. She will always have my love,acceptance and understanding. I cant believe how big she already is! She is so advanced she is solid as a rock! She is so strong she already tries to walk if she had balance she would be all over the place. She has this beaming personality and smile its amazing what she is capable of! She is smart she catches on to things i just cant believe a 7 month old could. sometimes I just want to cry thinking of my little baby turning into a little girl and at that a teenager and an adult. I sometimes feel like I am not cut out for being a mom! I get so stressed, am I going to do things right or totally screw her up! I HOPE I DON'T! All i know is she is my hope and such an amazing part of my life. The whole 22 pounds of her! At 7 months little Ava Tyler Panter can sit, crawl, walk in a walker, stand holding onto things, point, reach, laugh, try to talk, pick up food and feed herself and she has almost 3 teeth! Her 2 bottom teeth are in and her front top tooth is just getting started! She loves reading books and singing songs! She loves to get into anything and everything like my purse! She likes to eat what mommy and daddy are eating! She loves to nurse and play with her daddy! She is an amazing human and I hope she will have the best life she can! I hope she isn't like I was as a teen she deserves so much more! I hope I can teach her somehow to be strong and be her own person, and to do the right things. This little girl will be beautiful and I am so scared, because all the boys will want her! I hope she does not do half the things i did! I hope she will respect her self and find a husband that will marry her and treat her with all the love and respect she deserves. I know I have so much to teach Ava and sometimes I feel like I am not done learning! But I will do my best because she means the world to me!

AVA IS GETTING HER 3RD TOOTH ON TOP YAY!!!!


SICK SICK SICK

This week has not been too fun for all of us in my house hold. We are all sick. Aaron was the first to be then poor little Ava and now me. I feel mostly bad for little Ava. Her poor little nose is running constantly and her cry and voice is so horse. The first night she just cried all night. I literally wanted to die. I was so exhausted yesterday from the 3 hour night sleep I could barely be a mom at that, but I tried to baby Ava and Aaron all day yesterday, making sure they felt as good as they could. Now I am sick. MY throat is so sore. Hopefully we all get better! Until then we have Airborn, Vitemine C and Caugh meds!

THESE MAKE ME SMILE!





SUNDAY NIGHT BBQ




We BBQ a lot with everyone on sundays usually for dinner. Its so fun to just visit and hang out together. The boys usually play football or try to but the office is so small these days that its usually about 2 0n 2 but these are just some pictures of us visiting after our BBQ!!

A DAY AT THE LAKE








THE OFFICE TOOK A DAY OFF AND WENT TO THE LAKE AND DID SOME BOATING AND TUBING AND SKIING! IT WAS VERY FUN! AVA DID GREAT ALL DAY IN THE SUN!

FUN TIMES WITH SIDEWALK CHALK



Ok so this day was fun I walked outside to take Ava on a walk and Rachel and Jaidyn were outside drawing with chalk on the sidewalk by the apartments. I of coarse had a lot of fun drawing all sorts of animals and fishies and flowers. Ava just had fun crawling through all the art and getting dirty....OH and EATING THE YUMMY CHALK!!! haha I could do this all day! Ava is too young for it but I can promise you next year will be different! KIDS HAVE IT SO EASY and this just brings me back to the days where i could sit out in the sun and play all day with no nursing, no babies, no work, no problems. Its amazing a little side walk art is ALL i need to relieve some stress haha

WE ARE BEST FRIENDS








Ava and I spend almost every moment together. I have spoiled her to death with my attention and its so hard to let someone else tend her or take her for even just a hour. I even have a hard time leaving Aaron with her. It has drained a lot out of me and I have just recently realised its my fault! So I have been a little bit better about letting others take her when I need a break..But here are some pictures of us together! SHE IS SO MUCH FUN I JUST CANT GET ENOUGH OF HER!

BATH TIME IS FUN TIME!



Now that Ava can sit she loves to bath! I usually take one with her but this day was special she was all by her self and loving it. She loves all her toys and loves watching the water come out of the fosit. The other picture is of her after her bath she sat inside the sink and was staring at her self in the mirror!
