Hello Everyone,

So we have much to be report here...I'm sure most of you have already heard, but Corey and I will be expanding our family...with baby #2 at the end of August. We are so excited and quite surprised...Having Ava has been such a joy, that we can't wait to see and experience it all over again. Ava continues to amaze us with how smart she is...she is climbing everywhere, and smiles so often that we get comments from people everywhere as we go out...She is sayng almost a new word every week, and has even put a noun and verb together..."Mommy eat..." or "Daddy, bye-bye..." (Of course bye- bye is not a verb- but we frequently use it to explain to her that we are leaving...so appropriately used in my opinion! :) We love her personality, and are so blessed by her. She has even started to tell us when she is about to go potty...so we purchased a potty seat to begin the process...we have yet to pull her pants and diaper down, but she goes in the bathroom and officially squats on her potty seat...I have posted some pics for your viewing pleasure...TOO CUTE!
We read to her at night from a cute little children's Bible we received when she was born...I have posted a clip from her favorite story...we laugh every night...Things are pretty good in life although I was faced with some disappointing news about not getting a job I really wanted...BUT I totally know that if the door was shut, that it was never meant to be...so I am at peace with it. I will try to post more of an update soon, as much more has happened...stay tuned for more soon!

Love,
Cyndia for Corey and Ava
