Reid was in the bathroom going potty and Avilene was at the gate waiting for him to return. She very plainly said, "Reido doe-n-potty." (going potty) Nice sentence Avilene!!
I have to journal this because it doesn't happen a lot, but I certainly treasure the moment when it does happen!!! Avi came running across the room with her arms stretched above her head to where I was sitting in the chair and gave me a huge hug. She was on her tippy-toes and hugging tight. It lasted at least 15 - 20 seconds and in Avi's world that's a LONG time. Super precious and awesome!
What a blast to have our Nora back today from her Denver trip!! Here are 2 pictures of Avilene hugging her and Nora was loving every minute of all the attention! Nora arrived during Breakfast time and everyone was madly cheering! In the 3rd picture all 5 of the kids are on the mattress having lots of fun. Reid was pestering Avi with the stuffed bunny and dangling it in front of her!
These last 2 pictures crack me up!! Avi played with the animal masks several times this morning and was putting them on by herself. She has the (bear) mask on backwards and she was examining the sole of my shoe. The last picture is a "goat" mask and I love the floppy ears! So cute! I was grabbing the camera and saying, "Please don't take it off, please don't take it off." :) And she was waiting - kind of froze in place!! Haha!! Thanks Avilene!
