Monthly ~4-5k USD from Adsense through my Android Apps, and couple of hundred from in app sales for removing ads. I made my apps just to learn about Android initially. I did not know it would be a big hit. So, I just kept on adding features as per popular demand.

did you initially launch the app with ads? does the ad hurt the user experience?
Yes i added ads initially. But I always made sure they did not compromise with user experience. The ad revenue was not significant initially. It has grown steadily over couple of years as the user base has increased.
Which apps did you make?
Most of my revenue is from an app called Hindu Calendar. It has loads of features now relating to traditional Indian calendar, and festivals of India. [Edit]: See https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Alok+Mandavg...
