3 months old!

So Ava is now3months old and I decided I should come on here and update you guys on everything that is happening with the Valabek family. First and foremost--Ava is amazing. She is such a little angel....very calm, alert, and strong. My dad calls her the "little genius" which I can't say I disagree with. :) I honestly never knew you could love someone so much. I know people say it, but I would do absolutely anything for my little family. When I met our little girl, my life felt so complete. It's so cheesy, but it's true. I can stare at her for hours and not be bored, when she smiles it just makes me melt, I still think she's cute when she cries...i may just be the luckiest lady in the world. Maybe all mommies are. ..

She loves bathtime, this silly "i love my toes" song that we learned in class, silly voices, and cuddling. In the past 3 months she's become such a little person with a fabulous little personality. The days go by way too fast and i feel like everyday she does something new. She didn't stay a "newborn" for very long which is kind of sad...but amazing because I can't wait to see what kind of person she is going to be. I try to enjoy every second --even the cranky ones--because she will never be this old again. I take pictures like a maniac because I don't want to forget one second of her life. I want to always look back and remember our walks, naps on daddy, her first swim in the pool, and how amazing she has made our lives.

We close on our house on December 28th and move in at the end of January. I'm so excited that this year long process is almost over and we will have a gorgeous house to call our own. Life is definitely good....

Also, Mike's family is coming for a belated Christmas celebration and we are all headed to Disney World. I'm excited to take Ava on her first ride and see how she does in such a crazy environment. Life is definitely an adventure now-a-days and I wouldn't change it for the world.

I LOVE MY LOVE BUG!

So with that said, enjoy the pictures and I hope you all have an amazing holiday season. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. :) If you're not here, we miss you! :) If we haven't seen you, we miss you! :) xoxo

Love always,

Rachel, Michael, and Ava
