My sister, Lisa, and her family visited from Cleveland this week. While Ava took some time to warm up to her cousins, Ashley and Troy, you can see Roman had no problem doing so. 
We visited the zoo this past Friday and Ava enjoyed it, as usual. Ashely took her to feed the goats. Ava was much more assertive with the goats this year, yelling several times, "leave me alone, goat!"
She was beyond excited when Ashley took her on the merry-go-round. After she warmed up to Ash, they were inseparable the rest of the weekend. In the bathtub tonight, Ava said she was going to play with Ashely tomorrow. She was bummed when I told her they left to go home today but after thinking about it for a few seconds, she responded, "that's okay, we'll drive our car to see her tomorrow."
We also had a "Big Sister" party for Ava this weekend to help her feel special during her brother's attention grabbing time these days. She eventually started calling it a "princess party" instead. Aunt Christy got her a Matchbox car; these are the closest thing to Ava being a tomboy...
Mommy and daddy got Ava a "princess dress" but it was off in 30 seconds as she was more excited about the M&M's Aunt Christy also got for her.
