The last of our pictures from our great weekend

Sunday we returned home to allow John to get some
work done. The rest of us headed to the park!

Swinging
Climbing
Hanging
New tricks
Lookin' sassy
Danger girl
Static hair
After a fun time at the park we headed back to
the house where Grandma Barbie read book after
book to Ava. We both heard her yawn a few times,
then this:
Grandma realizes she is sleeping...
Funny!
She keeps reading, we were getting to a good part!
Oreo cuddling with Grandpa Bob
The sleeping girl scares me, I KNOW she will wake up GRUMPY!
She did too.
The only thing that pulled her back to my happy girl
was lots of snuggles and promises to see Auntie Jessica.

It must of worked, look at her now!
Very happy to see each other.
I love the way she looks at her.
Downstairs visiting Great Grandma Elena
Showing Grandma Angi the beautiful fall art work we made.
We had a wonderful dinner, Angi made this amazing
seafood dish that I might try to make some day. It was
so good John & I both took 3rds!

Ava got tired after her star of the show antics and
called it a night for the group.

She pulled us all out the door and went strait to bed when
we got home. That worked in our favor though, we got
to finally give Bob & Barbie their chance to whoop us
at pinochle, much to their delight. : )

What a great weekend, can't wait until the next time
they come to visit!

Throughout the year that followed I realized that this strong willed child would need a little more time, as well as mom backing the heck off. Before she turned two I came across a blog a mom was writing who made a bold statement of parents simply being lazy if they aren't potty training their kids very quickly. I was so mad about when I read that but also felt like maybe she was right all at the same time. It motivated me to simply take away Ava's diapers and sort of force her into being ready. I spent the entire day encouraging her as she had accident after accident. She managed to pee in her potty about 4 times and everywhere else about 347 times. I was so stressed out, so was she. At one point she peed on the floor and looked up at me
