Avi - 5/8/2017

Avilene ate some bran cereal and raisins for breakfast.  For lunch she ate bites of chicken salad with lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, peppers, and olives, she had bites of pita bread, and ate lots of pears.

I love these pictures because everyone that was here was on the mattress.  Sophie said, "Hey Gary!!  I did a butt bomb, Bubba did a butt bomb, Avi did a butt bomb!!"  What is a butt bomb?  Thank you for asking!!  (I'm aware that most of you already know this, but.....) Reid's brother, Bode, is the one who started the "butt bomb craze" and it's when they jump, shoot their legs straight out, and land on their bottom!  Voila - there's a butt bomb!!  So I'm calling these pictures: #ButtBomb!!  (So creative!)  Ha!

I told the kids to go to the window and see what sweet neighbors we have!!  They have 7 wonderful children and here's one of their college-aged kids mowing over on our side of the lawn!  Thank you Austin!  And then he brought a broom and swept the grass off our parking spot.  As usual, Austin goes above and beyond!!  He really is a great example of a quality young man!  We got his attention and the kids were waving their appreciation.

Here's Avi under the blanket making Nora laugh and keeping her entertained.  And Nora was doing these loud semi-fake sounding squeals and laughs that showed Avilene her appreciation!!  :)
