Hands, Teeth and less sleep!

It's so funny how my little Ava is turning into a girl who cares about her hi-gene!  Every time she sees the sink she say's "hands" and wants to wash her hands.  She insist on turning on the water herself too!  Also she LOVES to brush her teeth.  She has her own little step stool and will get up to the sink to turn on the water to put on her brush.  Hopefully she will always love to brush her teeth and won't be one of those kids you have to wrestle to the ground to get them to brush her teeth.

Another new thing which for me is not a pleasant one is that Ava wakes up in the night now.  We can't quite figure out why but usually around 3a.m sometimes earlier she will wake up and just want to be held for about 30 minutes or so and then go right back to sleep until her normal waking time of 7a.m.  Sometimes when she wakes she is crying out "NO NO NO" like she is having a bad dream or something.  I have been really spoiled for the last almost two years with a baby that sleeps through the night so it is hard to get used to.  Hopefully it is a short phase she is going through!

Here are a few pictures of Ava in action!
