Last week consisted of a Pull Up Party Dance at the Mall Of America where she dressed up with Boas, bibbity boppity booed Addison with a star wand, and of course Shook her GROOVE thing to the band that was playing. This will FOREVER be known as Ava's first concert. Apparently the guy that sings the potty dance song is a real touring artist.. who would have thunk it?!?! She was so funny doing her dancing and clapping. It took her a bit to get in to it but once she was going she was hard core ;)
We hit up the Childrens Museum.. which is ALWAYS a hit. Im SO happy that I purchased the yearly pass. I found a great steal on it on savvy source I believe last September? I think it was 50 bucks.. well when you pay almost 10 bucks a person per time it QUICKLY paid off.. I am SO purchasing another one regular full price or my favorite more then half off when I need to renew it.
Aves played in the Lego room with the big blocks and found a new friend that was her same age. It was sooo cute to see her play with someone her exact age. We went to the "craft" room not sure if that's what its really called but they always have crafts going on.. it was cut and paste this week.. she didn't cut anything but I did load up her paper with a bunch of glue and they had tons of stuff pre cut of different textures that she made a collage with. She also did her favorite, easel painting.

Then we ventured to the gears and water table, ALWAYS a hit. Followed by a quick stop on the "city bus" and the grocery store. And we even sat through storytime until I couldn't sit on the floor anymore, and she made a mad dash to the fire pit room, not sure what room this is but that's what I am calling it this month because the fake fire smells like a real fire!

Tony finished up a really awesome shelf in the garage to hold all of our garage items. It was supposed to be warmer then what it was this last weekend so we were a bit disappointed when it really didn't get above 20. Which made the project that longer then expected.

Ava and I did some returning of items and scoped out some fish and pets and a pet store near Rosedale, and used our GREAT 25 dollar of 50 dollar coupon text code from the gap. I love their toddler jeans and when you are paying 10 dollars for a pair AND you get to use them through 2 kids you feel better about it! HAHAHAH
Today we had Avas "little" girlfriends over , the ones that are younger then her, for lunch. Ava plays REALLY well with most age groups and its interesting to see how giving she is to others. She seems to adapt really well to older and younger kids, at this point.
She shared her baby snow white then quickly realized later she didn't want to share it any more. She liked giving the girls Mister Potato heads to play with and they all did really well giving and taking.
Ava was chasing Greta and vice versa around the kitchen island it was SO cute. Greta would crawl away and Ava would crawl after her or she would run depending which mode of transportation she chose at that time. We made a light lunch of salad and lasagna :D mmmmmmm Lasagna! And just had playdate/mom talk.
Oooh I also forgot we did some threading of breakfast cereal and finger painting with shaving cream. The cereal didn't last long, she figured out she could eat it. We only got 4 circles in :D
