A Day for Bonding

We decided to forgo the park and stay home with Ava. She is still very clingy and wants to be held or touched all the time. We are happy to oblige but are slowly trying to make her more comfortable just playing or even napping not in our arms. Right now she is napping on the bed. We may go out and get a stroller for her today to see if she will take to that. We don't mind carrying her but with this heat and humidity we all get a little uncomfortable drenched in sweat. I know we will all be fine and everything will work out at the right time. We love her so much as I know all of you guys do too.

We have received everyone's comments and love reading them daily so keep them coming.

We tried to get Ava to poop in the toilet today. It is hard to do because she is so scared of the bathroom. Normally she would just do her business where she stood. Never in a toilet so all is new to her. Mike held her and rubbed her back and out popped a poop. Mike has joined me in the mommy and daddy club with a pee and poop christening. LOL Mike is really a great dad and Ava knows it too. She seems to want me more but love Mikes cuddles so much. I wish we could see the happy smiling girl we have only seen a few glimpses of. It will happen sooner than we think and we will get lots of pictures.
