Ava's Got Style

Ava is doing a wonderful job getting herself ready in the morning.  She combs her hair, brushes her teeth, washes her face, get's dressed, and last but certainly not least, Ava accessorizes.  Each morning I look forward to see what Ava will wear and how many accessories she will put on.  Most of the time she puts at least 2 flowers in her hair, but often 4.  She also likes to wear necklaces and bracelets.  Each time she emerges from her room I smile and tell her how beautiful she looks.  Ava smiles a sweet smile back and has a look of satisfaction for a job well done.  When we go out in public she often gets compliments on her fun style and many smiles from the grandmas in the crowd.  It is such a joy to be the mother of a wonderful, fun, and creative little girl.  I am proud of Ava for making the effort to get herself ready and I enjoy seeing what interesting look she will have on each day.

Ava really likes shirts with flowers on them.  Usually as soon as I wash them she is wearing them again.  On this day she wore a big flower hair clip and a big princess headband (she calls her crown).
I call this Ava's "Mr. T" look because she has almost every necklace and bracelet she owns on.  And yes she likes to look pretty even when playing outside and holding a worm.
On this day Ava surprised be by wearing her panda hat and not putting flowers or bows in her hair.  I'm not sure why she chose to wear a skirt and jeans, but I just rolled with it.  It actually wasn't as cold as she makes it appear.
Ava wearing 4 flowers, necklaces, and bracelets.  It is always funny to me when people comment on how "girly" Ava is because she is almost always wearing her Toy Story cowboy boots or Boba Fett shoes.  I think she is a good mix of "girly" and a tomboy.
Ava likes helping me clean the bathrooms because she gets to wear a swim suit.  Don't worry I don't let her use harmful chemicals.  I mostly use natural stuff.
