LOOK what Ava learned to do

Working to get steady...
Trying to get some courage and then...
STANDing all by her SELF!

Just hanging around!

Here the two cousins are hanging out at Nana Rose's!


You can almost see both dimples!
Hanging out at home!

Catching up!

This is Ava and Zachary! And I do believe Zachary (aka Beanpod) is catching up to Ava size wise!

Sweet and Sour Chicken

Family favorite! I usually double the sauce so I have enough to put on veggies! Next time I make it I'll take a pic and post it!

Sauce:
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 up chicken broth
1 tsp soy sauce
*Mix all these ingredients together!

Cut 3 lbs of boneless chicken breast into tender slices, dip into beaten egg and then throw in zip-lock with flour in it. Once all the chicken is in the bag springlke more flour on the top, seal and shake so chicken is coated with flour. Brown chicken tenders in skillet with oil (don't cook too long). Place them all in 9x13 pan, cover with sauce and cook for 1 hour @ 350 degrees. Service with rice and fried veggies (sliced tomato and pineapple are a yummy touch to the veggies).

Ava's bedtime song

You have to have the volume up to get what's going on in this video because there is not much to see!

Just talking to herself in the dark!

She got her car

One of Kensie's goals in coming to live with Cameron and I was to save up and buy a car. Through her saving and Cameron and Kevin's hard work they made it happen. It got here late in the day so the pictures are a little dark, but I still think you are able to see her excitement! Congrats Kensie!



What a happy girl!

My Valentine...

Is so cute!(I burned my forehead with a curling iron!)
We went to a really good Taco Stand in Seattle for our romantic dinner on Saturday (LDS Valentines). It was a little cold to eat under the awning they had so we brought it back to home sweet home!
My burrito was sooo good! The grease that dripped from it down into the aluminum foil might have had something to do with that.
yummmm
All Done! (see the grease, yikes)
All tuckered out
I love the Roses!

I love Ava in this hat. Her Grannie made it for her!
