Today Ava was Sassy

Well little lady, we're going to have to nip this one in the bud right now.

This photo has no correlation to the post whatsoever.
We bought you an Easter dress today so of course you
tried it on. Cute, right?

Later in the afternoon you and your mom were playing in the living room. You sitting just below the television and mom beside you. Somehow or another an instruction booklet made its way into your toy baskets. 

We have two rectangular wicker baskets that sit on the bottom shelf of the TV stand. Over time they have become your upstairs "toy boxes" for your smaller things. You reached in and pulled out a booklet and put it straight into your mouth. 

You're  a slobber monster so it didn't take long for the the paper to become soggy and began to disintegrate in your mouth. I asked your mom to take it out of your hands. And that's when you showed us some attitude.

You have a strong grip, you weren't about to let go. When your mom was finally able to wrest it from your clutches you showed sass like I've never seen before. 

I mean, you've gotten angry when we've taken things from you, but this time you meant it. You looked at your mom and screamed at her at the top of your lungs. The tone of your scream was different than what we've witnessed before. It showed that your gaining an understanding of the things around you. 

Just know that it may fly at this age, but not for long. We will raise you to be a respectful young lady.
