Holding Conversation

This evening, we had dinner with the Butler's and their guests from the Seattle area. Mike BBQ'd up some friggin' fabulous burgers and we enjoyed our meal out on the patio.

Conversation ensued, and Ava, at one point, was off on the sidelines simply observing us and our adult chat. We were all taking turns talking with sudden bursts of laughter to follow. Ava saw this and began her own rhythm mimic.

Ava would spit out a 5 second dosage of "speech", then followed by a long drawn out laugh. She would mimic us (the adults) a few times until we caught on, then we all had a great laugh together.

Ava, you're a hoot! And we love you!

P.S. The pic is not from this evening; nonetheless, it is a great pic from March!
