I'm growing!

Ava is about 7 weeks old now, and is weighing 9.5 pounds. We are regularly bringing her with us on errands, even if it does take forever to get ready with all the baby gear! Lucy is starting to show signs that she is accepting Ava in the family. If she sees Ava and wants to say hello, a little kiss (lick) is becoming more common. I really enjoy when Ava is having a screaming fit and then picking her up only to have her quiet down. Amy is clearly a natural mother and seems to have great instincts on how to deal with Ava. Just yesterday, Ava's pacifier fell on the driveway which we picked up just as we started to drive away. Ava started to scream, and Amy put the pacifier in her mouth to clean it off and then gave it to Ava. Now that's love!
