Ava went kite flying for the first time last weekend. She and daddy picked one out together, then took it to Gasworks Park for some serious stunt kite shinanigans. Well, maybe no stunt kite tricks, but they definately had a good time.

So proud of my new kite!

Carrying it up the hill at Gasworks park.

Wanna come fly with me?

Go, ladybug, go!

Preschool

It's that time already. Two and a half and off to school. We are only on day 3, but Ava seems to be having a great time meeting new friends and learning from Teacher Jackie. Her preschool has a play structure with a slide so that is the talk of the day. That, along with how much fun it is to pack her lunch in her backpack and wear it. Ava came home today covered in marker and with her ponytail totally dishevelled. Definately signs of fun. From her first few days of preschool:

Paining during Child Welcome Day.

Coloring with Teacher Tiffany and some friends.

Checking out the book selection.

Posing in front of the school with her backpack on.
