Ava's 2nd Birthday

We just had Ava's 2nd birthday party here at our house in Portland. She made out like a bandit but she was just so excited and had such a good time with all the other kids. She is getting so big. She had a Little Mermaid cake and all she wanted to do was stick her hands in it. We also had little cupcakes to go around the cake but the kids just weren't that into them to my surprise. Ava got a tricycle, care bears(grumpy and sunshine because according to my neighbor she is drastically one of those two), a princess couch, dress up clothes, regular clothes, a pretend make up kit with a purse and phone, and a puzzle. I set some of the toys in her closet for a rainy day so she'll be able to appreciate all them eventually. Ava has pretend painted my nails her nails and even Jason's nails a million times already and she has only had it for a couple of hours, she is such a girly girl.I have not written in a while so a lot has been going on and I don't even know where to start. Ava is potty trained now finally! Yeah! NO MORE buying stupid diapers that cost a fortune. She was actually pretty easy to potty train I think it was more me that was procrastinating it. Jason and I start school on Monday so we're a little nervous and excited but hopefully we will do good. I just can't believe Ava is two she talks so well for her age everyone we see is always making a point of how well she enunciates her words which I don't know where she gets that from because my Mom has said to me a million times, "Enunciate your words Emily, I can't understand you!". I am going to put some pics on here and videos of Ava.
