So when we were getting ready this morning Ava was sitting on the bed after her bath when Chris came in and smelled a stinky toot that Dixon had let out. Chris lamented "Gosh Dixon, you stink."
Ava then took a deep sniff, grimaced and said, "Dixon stinky. You stink Dixon. Dixon needs a diaper for his stinky."
Needless to say, Chris and I had to catch our breath from the laughing. She is definitely in the stage of making profoundly funny statements. I look forward to what each day will bring from her.

Talking in her sleep
Around 4:30 AM as I lay there with some pregnancy induced insomnia I started to hear my darling daughter begin talking in her sleep.
She first began calling out for Poppa. As for which Grandpa she was referring to I do not know.
But the real kicker is when she said "Want Chocolate Daddy!"
That's my girl! Dreaming about Chocolate.

Final Countdown
Maybe I will eventually get the hang of this blogging business. I am always so envious of those who have the creative vernacular talent to pour out interesting streams of life's happenings. So I will attempt yet again to document our life happenings.
As of today I have 34 days until my due date. Little Eli Andrew Rodda will be in the world soon and I am enormously curious as to the kind of person he will be. I am so in love with our little Ava I feel like I have high expectations for the little guy. I already love him so much, I know he will amaze me. I look forward to cuddling him and nuturing him. One of my deepest wishes is that I hope this one looks a little like me. Ava looks so much like her daddy and she is a stunningly beautiful child.
When Ava's due date was approaching I felt ready and prepared. This time I can't quite lock down that same feeling of preparedness. I feel like there is so much I need to do still. Wish I could take the week before he comes off so that I can whirlwind through my house and be a nesting fool. Oh well! As long as he has a place to sleep, something to eat and something to wear we will be doing good.
I am very grateful that my husband is so supportive of me. He would do anything for me if I just asked. I am definitely larger in the abdomen this time and I feel like the proverbially whale. I fight the waddle though. I just focus on walking in a straight line. I don't think my hips will ever forgive me for such abuse.
Ava is also excited about her baby brother, although when you ask "who is in mommy's tummy?" she answers "baby brother" and then when you ask "what is his name?" she answers "baby sister" LOL!
Since she doesn't have the same concept of time as we do she doesn't quite get that he will be here before she knows it. She did thoroughly inspect his crib that we put together.
Can't wait to be able to sta home and spend time with my babies!
