Ava's World

Ava is discovering the great outdoors. She is so fascinated with every sight and sound. Since she can't speak yet, she points to everything and grunts. I think she's trying to say "what's that?" which comes out sounding like "DA?". Since she can't verbalize yet. she touches everything and oh yeah, puts everything in her mouth. Grass, gravel, dirt, mulch, you name it. She's had it in her mouth at one point or another. I think her middle name should have been Hoover.




Ava mistook a dried up earthworm on the sidewalk for a twig and was about to pick it up until Mom intervened ;-)












(Note the twig in her mouth)













Zoom in this picture. Notice the mulch and dirt around and in her mouth? That girl is obsessed with mulch on the playgrounds. She will play with it for 20 min. She has had house dirt in her mouth from my houseplants as well. Who knows, maybe she's into that organic stuff.
