Ava's 1st Birthday Party

We celebrated Ava's 1st birthday party with Courtney, Mary, Ava, Mike, Poonam and Savera. Avery is teething pretty badly (2 more just popped through on the top and it looks like a couple more on the bottom will appear soon) so she was a little clingy and fussy at first. But once she warmed up she had lots of fun playing with her friends and looking through her new, personalized book from Savera. Avery also spent a lot of time trying to figure out the baby gate with Dad on the stairs - at one point she got it open on her own! It was a fun afternoon and we all enjoyed spending time with friends.
