Ava Gets Around

Wow. Once you get older...you get to go all over the place. At least that is what Ava thinks, now that she is 3 weeks old. The weather has been beautiful here in San Francisco, so Ava has visited some of the city's prime locations - including a trip to the Ferry Building, Crissy Field, Golden Gate Park and even the Conservatory to see a special exhibit called "Chomp!" It was an exhibit showcasing carnivorous plants....I think Ava was a little scared they might eat her since she is so little, but she was protected in her sling.

Some good news in the form of weight gain as well. Ava is now back up to her birth weight of 7 pounds. She may actually be more now - as she has become a little piggy with the eating! This is good news since the doctor was a little concerned, but I knew she would pull through all along.

Jill is starting to get into a groove at home, though she likes it much better when Dave is home with her. It is much easier to take care of Ava with two people...and much more fun to do it together! So, she looks forward to the weekends, but is starting to get involved in some fun things during the week. She met up with mommy friends Sarah and Wendy last Friday for lunch, which she enjoyed thoroughly. She is also going to start going to a mommy group, baby yoga and soon enough...baby boot camp.

All in all, everything is going fantastic and Ava is getting lots of love! See her latest photos here.
