Butterfly Hunting, Homemade Popsicles, & A Blue Tutu

Ava enjoys hunting for butterflies in our backyard. She waves her net around and shouts, "butterfly, butterfly". Ava hasn't caught a butterfly yet, but she is pretty determined. Next year I think we will have to add more butterfly friendly flowers and maybe make a butterfly station with fruit to help Ava have a better chance at catching one.
Throughout the summer we have been making our own popsicles. We have used fresh fruit, pudding, yogurt, and fruit juice as some of the ingredients. This is a special treat Ava and Rich like to share after dinner.
I'm sure you have noticed the blue tutu in the previous pictures. A couple weeks ago Ava was given some play clothes from her cousins Bella and Lily which included this awesome tutu. Ever since Ava laid eyes on it she wants to wear it. I guess everything is better when wearing a tutu.

That sounds just like my girls. It is so exciting to hear how her little personality is developing. It will be so fun when they are all teenagers and will have each other to hang out with.
