Dada...Finally!!!

After all these months, Ava has finally said Dada! Aaron is so excited...as are we all!! Just wanted to give you a quick update. She's crawling around like a wild woman and "dada-ing" up a storm!! More to come later...she'll be 11 months in 4 (count them 4!!) days! My word...

On another note, we went to Elle's first birthday party on Saturday, and it was a great time!! The Kanuth's transformed their backyard into a mini water park for the kids...big and little! Aaron and Kyle put their suits on and jumped in with Ava and Korb. We had tons of fun getting together with everyone. It seems like forever since we had seen Rob and Kate, so we definitely had some catching up to do! Elle was adorable in her birthday attire and props go to whoever made that cake!! Kate...I consider you and I to be cake connoisseurs...and might I say, well done! That was one of the yummiest cakes!!! And...it was sooo cute! I just wished I had remembered to bring my camera...this is becoming an all to common occurrence. I "borrowed" a couple of pictures from Katie's blog...Katie, I hope you don't mind. And I'm going to beg Jammi to share hers with me!! I know she got a couple of good ones of the water fun!!

And to wrap up our weekend, my parents surprised us with a visit on Sunday...yay!! They were in Frisco at an FC Dallas game, and came over afterwards to see us...well, they probably came over to see Ava, but I'll say they came to see "us." We got to hang out for a while and watch some football and then we went to dinner at Christina's...my favorite!!! I'm so glad they stopped by. It's not often we get to go to dinner as a family. If only we could convince them to move up here..... :)
