More Piggies


I am in LOVE with this little girl--especially her pigtails! This is all of her original newborn hair (which never fell out). Ava Grace is watching her brother and sisters play on the merry-go-round at the park...probably feeling a bit left out for the moment ;) And, FYI, while her eyes appear dark, they are actually an amazing blue/green...love them!!

It has been a rough couple of days while she's in her second round of teething. What a complete difference from her siblings! We never knew the others were cutting teeth...other than the ridiculous amount of drool. No fever, no fussing, nothing.  Not this child. She's making up for all the others! Fussy, fever, crying, clingy. NO FUN. And it is so opposite of her norm that I, too, am struggling! She's so mild mannered and easy-going. Loves to just hang around with her siblings and Momma and Daddy. Often she just sits and babbles her pretty little head off while we laugh! Thankfully, her top left tooth popped through the gumline yesterday and the other is halfway through today. Almost there!! Poor thing, it does break my heart. I'm so thankful that there's tylenol to help a bit.

I'll do my best to get more photos up of all that's been happening around here. Our kids are growing up way.too.fast.  Lots of fun and laughter. Lots of family in to visit. Lots of travelling to visit family. And lots of pictures in attempt to capture a glimpse of this amazing time of life. What a blessing to be the mom of these four little people!
