Time with Gma and Gpa

We just got back from a long trip visiting my parents. They were so good to have us for a couple of weeks and we miss them already. Tanner is old enough now that he says that he wishes that Grandma lived closer.......me too, me too...(especially after that drive)
I love the above picture. It is me with the kids BEFORE church. You know you are in trouble when your kids wont even sit still and cooperate before church!
Somehow we survive the baby and toddler stage...

Here is Ava as a brunette!
Ava is as sassy and demanding as the day is long, but I just luv her tons!!

Tanner and Ava just adore my Mom. She just gets them, and knows how to make them smile even during a tantrum.

Ava is a bit attatched to Grandpa Dan......who wouldn't be? I think she was trying to secretly take his iphone and play with it.
He is always very patient with her and listens to her constant singing and little lady stories.
