10 months with a BANG!!

Ava turned 10 months on July 4th!! Lots of celebrating with fireworks;) Ava is such an amazing sleeper. She slept through all of our neighbors fireworks. It was soooo loud and she didn't even flinch.

Today for the 4th, we went on a family hike to the summit of Montara mountain. Ava did great! That was the longest she has been in a hiking backpack (7.5 miles in 2.5 hours). We let her walk around on top and snack. She loves to be outdoors and walk; so she was in heaven.
