Back to work and a new word!!

I went back to work full time last week!! We have been taking Ava to her Aunt Na's house in North bend on the last two Wednesday's. The drive really isn't as bad as we had thought. We have to leave our house by 5am to get Ava there and get back to Puyallup to work by 7am. We get off work at 6pm and after we go get Ava, we get home around 7:45pm. It is nice that we can do the commute together so we can keep each other company!
I miss Ava ALL DAY at work! :( It is hard to go that long without seeing her!
Ava has been having a lot of fun with her cousin's, Aunt Na, and Uncle Todd. Here are a few pictures my sister took yesterday. I hear that Ava's favorite toy is their big puppy dog!

Ava has added "Hi" to her vocabulary!! She sneaks up on you from behind, and when you turn around and look at her, she smiles really big and says "hiiiiiii". It is so cute!!
