Tutu Cute...

Daddy's Girl

Avery loves her daddy! She is so cute with him. Luke is such a good dad. We watched him play softball last night and she loved it. It was neat to see her smile and look for him when she heard his voice on the field. She is beginning to get excited when he comes home from work and it is so sweet.  Avery, you are blessed to have a daddy who loves you so much. 

Fun Weekend!

We had such a fun weekend. My sister, Laura, and her boyfriend Blaine came to visit us. The guys went to golf on Saturday while the girls hit the mall. My kind of day! Avery always has so much fun with Aunt Laura. She bought her a cute yellow summer dress. Yeah EOX!  So sweet, thanks Laura! We had a great time; come back any time guys!

Avery got this glow worm from Mimi the other day and loves it! She is so cute with it. I still remember one that I had growing up. Just thought these pics were sweet.

                      

Baby's Got Her Blue Jeans On...

A Week of Firsts

Avery tried some new things this week as a big six month old. :) She can sit up almost on her own, so I let her ride in the grocery basket like a big girl! She loved it, despite the face in the picture. She loved being able to look around and see everything. Don't worry Mom and Grandma :),  she was strapped to the cart cover which was strapped to the basket so nobody could just grab her out.  I never let go of the basket any way. 

She also tried baby food for the first time. We started with carrots and sweet potatoes. She seems to like carrots the best so far. Se still tries to suck the spoon, but she is getting the hang of it.

She also slept in her own bed at night. I know, I know, she is six months old and just doing this. I liked having her in her little bed in my room so I didn't worry about her. She is getting way too big for that little bed, so I thought now would be a good time. She already naps in her big bed so it wasn't too foreign . She did well. She seemed to love the freedom to move around and stretch out. Still wakes up to eat in the night, but that's another story. :)

Enjoy your weekend everyone! 

Six Month Well Check

Avery had her routine well check this week and checked out great. She is doing so well. We feel so blessed that she has not been sick ever. She weighed in at 14 lb and 13 oz. and measured 26.5 inches. She is the 88% for length and 30% for weight. Still long and lean. :) She loves Dr. Hunt(pictured below). We'll be starting baby foods soon and all the fun stuff that comes with six month olds. This is such a fun stage!!

Valentine's Continued

Valentine's Day was so much fun with our little sweetheart! Aunt Laura came to visit and brought a basket full of goodies for her! Her Daddy gave her first rose, which she thought looked very delicious and tried to eat. He also gave gave her the little pink 2009 Valentine bear and the "daughter" plaque. She loved it! We set her up in the crib with some of her goodies and she was soo excited. It was really funny. She couldn't decide which new thing to grab next. The vase was quickly removed after the pictures. :)
