Another first...

While we were in Austin during Hurricane Ike, Ava became obsessed with Aunt Cindy's cat, Socks. At first when we kept calling for the cat, Ava would look at her feet, thinking we were talking about the socks on feet. When she finally distinguished the difference between the two, she started chasing the cat around the house asking 'where is she'. This phrase was very muffled an mumbled, it took a while to figure out what she was actually saying.


This brings us to about a month later...Ava always does a mental check of her family. She points at me and says Mommy, then to Daddy, to herself and then sisa (Megan); you catch my drift. Sometimes she will throw in a PaPa for Granpa Darrell and a Gr for Granma Gloria. She will even recite the names of her 'babies'. Bu for bunny, Mu for Muno, Bobbie for Brobee and Tutu for Toode (By the way, those are her characters from her favorite show Yo Gabba Gabba). On Sunday, Ava was doing her usual check list of the family; pointing at Mommy, then Daddy, then to herself, and then all of the sudden she blurted out 'Where is Sisa'? This time it was very clear and we knew what she said right away. So there goes another first....Ava's first sentence, well at least in my book.
