January Fun

Ok, so I've been slacking in the blog department. We haven't been too busy, but have been active. Mostly, we've been preparing for baby. Her nursery is finally done. I still need to take pictures and post. Ava's room is next; we already painted it, but are now adding beadboard and shelving to the big wall. Always a project going on at the Vaca house...

As you can see from the pictures, Ava is a full fledged kiddo these days. She loves to play, jump, read, and sing. We took her to Monkey Joe's for the first time (a jumpy/bouncy indoor park) and she LOVED it. Jim got to go through some of the bigger bouncies with her which she adored. These pics are from the "under 3 feet tall" only bouncies though. She loves to bounce. We should have named her Tigger.

She's also loving dressing up as always. The last two Sundays I had to take her picture she was so darn cute. The first turned into a full-on photo shoot. I busted out my backgrounds and everything! I'm sure some of you will get print versions of these sooner or later.

On other fronts, Baby Vaca continues to do well. We are 3.5 weeks from her due date now. No signs of any complications or anything, so that is good. We're taking Ava on a tour of the maternity wing next week so she can understand what's going on when we go again in a few weeks. That should be fun. I think she'll really enjoy seeing all the babies!
