GROWING UP

Ava went for a trim today and decided to get bangs.
Doesn't it make her look more grown up?

BUSTIN' LOOSE

Ava's classroom is temporarily home to an incubator full of chicken eggs.
So far, three adorable, fluffy chicks have hatched.
In other news, check out that tooth she was wiggling nonstop in class.
EEEWWWWWW!
AH! This happened so fast that there wasn't a chance to take a picture of the dental floss tied around her tooth.
She was a little upset with mom for "tricking" her after she asked if she would tug "softly" on the floss. Well, soft is a relative term, right? Afterall, it didn't take much to get it to pop out.
