Here's what happens when you are blessed with an incredibly cute daughter, was at one time an art major, are cocky enough to think you can immediately master whatever medium comes across your path, and create your artwork in the very wee hours between bottle feedings (of Ava's newly arrived sister.)  This pains me to look at it, as it would anyone familiar with the way Ava really looks, but that little masochistic voice inside me insisted on publishing this... I guess the good news is that I've apparently evolved to the point of losing any pride in my work.

Oh, and you can see Ava dancing to my tortured guitar playing here.

It's really pathetic how long I've neglected this little girl's blog.  Suffice it to say that, as of April 29, 2008, she has a new little sister - Abigail Jean.  And although I don't have time to elaborate on everything that's gone on with Ava over the past year or so, I can at least provide some recent photos from the Transportation Fair she attended the other day.
