Ava is now 3yrs 7 mo old. I have noticed that when talking to new older children she tries to speak clearer and forms more complex sentences. I believe she's trying to make a greater effort to be understood by the old children because she's very eager to play with them. She is getting better at following directions from mom and dad and sharing with her little sister. We recently went to the pool and she is super excited to learn how to swim. Right now she is wearing new floaties and is enjoying doggy paddling around the pool. She was doggy paddling last September completely by herself for about a week. But once summer ended we didn't spend any more time in the water. I am hoping this summer we can improve her doggy paddling and see if she can hold her breath underwater. She practices plugging her nose and closing her mouth in the bath tub, but actually dunking her entire head underwater is an whole other obstacle for her. We are taking it slow and trying to be safe around water and having her enjoy being in the water in the first place.
Here are some snap shots of Ava within the last month. She weighs about 32lbs and is 40 inches tall.
