FUN FUN FUN

I am sooo in love with little Ava! She's so much fun. She smiles all day long. The weather has been amazing lately so me and her go out all the time. We go to the mall, to visit friends and family, and we go for long walks. She takes everything all in. She hardly ever naps, so she really enjoys going out with her momma! She LOVES kids. She can watch them all day long. Hard to believe she's going to be running around with them one day lol. Yesterday, we went to see Aunt Janet at Tim and Liz's house. It was Ava's first time meeting her so I'm glad she gave her a lot of smiles! It sucks that I only got one picture..

Ava is starting to hate car rides. This sucks, because I try to get her out of the house as much as possible so we are always in the car. So today I was checking her out in the carseat and I noticed she looked kind of snug. So I decided to take out the piece of the carseat that frames her head.
This ^
As soon as I took it out, she stopped crying. Who knew the whole time she was crying she must have been uncomfortable! This is her now..
Nothing but smiles now!
I also started to put her in the Bumbo last week! She loves it. I place her down on the ground and she watches Benji run around and play with his toys.
Happy little baby
So right now my favorite color on Ava is yellow. She looks so darn cute in it lol. I'll be sure to pick out a yellow prom dress for her one day haha! Look at these pictures, and I'm sure you'll agree, yellow is deff her color!
Her first ponytail LOL if you can even call it that!

2 Month Stats

Ava had her 2 month appointment yesterday. She woke up around 10:00am and was in such a good mood. Of course I wasn't because I was freaking out! I was so nervous about her getting her shots! Whenever my nephew would get his shots, he would get a fever and stay up all night crying. So finally, 2:15 came around and it was time to go...As soon as we got in the room, the doctor told me to start undressing Ava.  She started to examine her and said she looks great! She says that she doesn't see any brown specs in her eyes so she probably wont have brown eyes. She did say that they might turn hazel. I don't care what color they will be, she's still gorgeous! When the doctor looked in her mouth with the tounge depressor, Ava chomped down and we all heard this LOUD chomp. She took a closer look and asked "Is she drooling a lot, because I'm about 80% sure she is teething?" I honestly don't think she's teething because it doesn't seem like she's been in any pain. My neice and nephew both had a tooth on its way up at 3 months. So she could be taking after them. Ava even rolled over for the doc! What a show off lol.  Because baby girl moves her legs around so much, the nurse said she was gonna give her the needle in her butt. AHH..when they stuck her, Ava's whole body tensed up and she dug her nails into my skin. It probably scared the hell out of her. The scream that she let out was like she was being murdered. The scream didn't last too long because I shoved her bottle in her mouth. So it wasn't THAT bad. When we got home, she slept in the car seat for about 30 minutes..they we went on with our day like we normally would. With lots of kissing, hugging, playing, and eating. Around 8:00pm she let out this cry that I never heard before. My baby was in pain...it broke my heart. Then I noticed she was burning up. It was time for the medicine. In about 30 minutes, she was normal again. Since she went through so much I decided that I would hold her all night long. Well she decided this for me because everytime I would put her in the crib she would wake up and cry. Now it's a new day and it's like the shots never happend!

2 Months Old and Father's Day!

Without Pete this post wouldn't even be possible!! Of course I used to wish him Happy Father's Day before because of Benji!! This time it's real! I feel pretty important because, I made a daddy out of him lol. Pete is an amazing father. The night she was born he did everything while I just layed there!! I'm pretty sure he held her the whole night. He continued to do this for a whole week after her birth. Now she still has to be held in order to fall asleep, thanks Pete lol. He was even able to be home just in time to give Ava her first bath! Before he went back to NC he recorded this book that his mother brought him called "All the ways that I love you". Ava listens to this book every night before bed. Even when she's crying it calms her down. Can't wait till she can see you every single day. Love you Pete!
Only 2 days old here!

Her First Bath.
As soon as Ava woke up today, I got her dressed up in this adorable outfit Nona got her. I slapped on her 2 month sticker and took some pictures!

My First Post!!

Hey everyone!! I decided to start a blog because I'm moving down to NC. Eveyone seems so upset that  Ava is moving away (no one cares about me) so this will be so everyone will be able to see her grow!! SOO to all the family who is far far away. A quick look into my life...

Me and the Hubby. Married 12-20-11

Me and Pete met at St. Peter's High School (RIP high school LOL) and he was my senior buddy. I thought he was really cute then and I still do!! Of course nothing happend between us until we started talking on facebook, 6 years later! We became official on 12/24/09, and we started our long distance relationship. Long distance relationships suck by the way. They are hard work, but that's what i get for dating a marine. The longest I ever went without seeing him was 7 months when he had to go to Japan.. When he found out the date that he was coming home I planned a vacation for us to go to Wildwood, NJ. We were extremly happy to be together...so happy that we created something...Something that made me look like this...
Finding out I was pregnant was the scariest, happiest thing that ever happend to me. On November 12th 2011, we found out we were having a baby girl!! I instantly imagined a life full of dolls, cute clothes, and cheerleading!! Pete imagined never letting her date! Anywho, everyone was excited to meet our little girl. She was spoiled before she was even born.


Ava Brielle Cipot- 4/17/12
born at 10:04pm
9lbs 21 3/4 inches
She finally came two days after my due date! I had went to the doctors that morning with my mother and Pete. When they hooked me up to the monitor she said that I was having contractions every 2-3 minutes and I should head to the hospital! When we got there I was 4 centimeters. Dr K. had me walk around in the hospital to see if he could get me to dialate some more...of course my walking did no good. He said "ok, I can either send you home, or break your water." I obviously had him break my water so we could get the show on the road (this happend around 4pm). I got the epidural maybe 10 mins later, and hung out in the room with Pete, my mother in law and my momma. The epidural was the best thing ever created, and everything was fine until I felt this intense pain in my right hip. I told the nurse and the doctor came in to check me and told me I was 10cm! this was around 9:45pm. I started pushing soon after. Thank goodness for Pete because I wouldn't have been able to do it without him!!!
