New here!

Yeah! The Passantes' finally have a blog!!! I hope to be able to add something everyday here but I seem to say that often with many things and never follow through. Maybe this will be different.

We had a pretty lazy day here. The Packers don't play until tomorrow night and the sorry Browns game was not on TV here (thank god) but it seemed like football was on all day loooooooooong.

Ava went with daddy to Grandma Mary's house for a few hours and I got to put up most of the Christmas decorations. I found a few boxes of *extra* decorations that I continue to put back in the attic every year. Maybe it's time I just get rid of those as I'll never put them out. When Ava got home she napped for three hours... yeah! Once awake, she was amazed by the decorations. Unfortunately, one of the Santas hanging on the wall must look pretty scary because she whines and takes three steps back everytime she sees it in the hallway. I might have to get video of that. It's pretty funny!

Joe put up lights outside a few days ago and Ava loves to run to the window when they are on. She calls them "yites". It's precious. She now says "hi" and "bye" to many objects in the house. Today she was overheard saying "hi" to santa, yites, her green beans, socks and paci.

I didn't take any pictures today but here are a few from yesterday. She was watching daddy (a.ka. Griswald) add a few strands to house. Now that we have neighbors accross the street with their decorations out, Joe sees it as competition and is "taking it to the next level" as he told me today. :)

Notice her Milwaukee Bucks outfit? Didn't bring good luck. They lost last night... what's up with our sports teams?

I wish some of Joe's love for putting up lights would rub off. Our neighbors think we are Jewish. Ava is darling, we miss her!

Hi Little Miss Ava;
It is so nice to know that you had a chance to explore the new Bayshore Town center. It is very important that all Diva's know where to obtain there latest fashions.
I love Trader Joe's as well.
