up with the singer

I am sitting here with a little singer. It is very early in the morning and a little babbling brook (Ava) is busy waking up her brothers (too bad for them). She is very vocal this morning...

I decided to get up with Ava this morning as Angel is not feeling well. I think Ava is trying to pop more teeth as she isn't doing as well sleeping as her normal. She is up at some point during the night for the last couple of nights and I've noticed she is occasional drooling. More teeth would be great as she is becoming more and more interested in what we're eating. Some more little chompers to add to the two bottom ones would make the task of chewing way easier for her.

I am on my first week of holidays. I should be half way through my tour but I'm at home and enjoying it. All this time with Angel and Ava has been great. I am really enjoying myself. I was thinking yesterday of how we would've have been in Hawaii this weekend; it's hard not to think of when the guys at work are all booking their winter getaways (there are some cheap prices for Jamaica right now). In the unusual cold we are currently experiencing, such thoughts are tough. The saving grace is to remember we're going next year. It actually works out better as Ava will be older and more interactive with us and her environment. But, she will still only be a year and a half old; meaning we'll have great pictures but she will not have any memories. This realization means we'll have to go back when she's older. It's easy to survive the cold when you're thinking about how you're going to go to Hawaii twice!!!!
