The Bashams Come to Visit

Our good friends Wendy, Matt and Zephyr came to visit over Thanksgiving weekend. Zephyr was born on September 21st and spent 10 days in the NICU. He was 5 lbs 4 oz. He has been home in Ophir now for almost 2 months and is doing great! We were so excited to see them and meet little "Z". We can't wait for Ava and him to hang out more!

Proud Mama

We were trying to get a smile out of him when our camera card got full.
He's much happier than this and full of smiles.

Winter arrived this weekend and while going to dinner with the Basham's, a warm hat was needed

The New Ava!

We can't believe how many developments Ava has had in the last month. It was a late start but Ava has been eating solid food since the beginning of October. She is crawling at a slow pace and pulling herself up on things around the house. She can also stand now with hands to balance her.

Fall Hiking

The whole family went for a fall hike a few weeks ago to see the last of the changing Aspen leaves. We hike up Elbert Creek, a new area for us, with great views and trees.
