More Easter Fun

Ava turned five months old this Easter weekend (the 16th to be exact). Grammie and Grandpa Wright drove all the way from Maine to visit with their sweet little granddaughter. She absolutely loved all the attention she received. She returned the favor by displaying her new skills of blowing raspberries, attempting to roll from front to back, and grasping for everything within her reach. As you can see from the photos below - she has become very animated!
In addition to looking just like her Daddy when he was a baby, Grammie frequently comments on how strong Ava is. Her favorite activity is wildly swaying back and forth while standing - which is very tiresome for the person holding her. I definitely enjoyed the extra hands to help hold and entertain Ava this weekend!
She gets so excited now when we interact - her whole body wiggles with delight.
Ava has got to be entering the teething phase. She drools constantly eagerly accepting any and all objects in her mouth. Posted by Picasa
