The Bean

Today is my middle child's 5th birthday. In honor of that, here are some things to know about my gal....

*She was 9 pounds 14 ounces at birth.

*She was the only child born with enough hair to tell what color it was.

*Her middle name is Jane and she is named after Gabe's grandmother.

*Gabe came up with the name 'Ava'.

*Other names we considered: Arabella, Zelda and Megan.

*Her nicknames are "Bean", "Beanie", "Beanie-Weenie", "Janie" among others.

*As a newborn she sounded JUST like the pterodactyls from Jurassic Park when she cried.

*She took her first steps at 10 mos on Christmas Day.

*She loves to make people laugh and is hilarious! She has a very physical sense of humor.

*She is actually very introverted, and is a deep thinker.

*She has been my biggest challenge, but is a HUGE joy to me!
