Playing at the park

Going to the park is an everyday thing for Avery and I. So I thought maybe I should bring the camera and take some pictures. Lately Avery is very camera shy though, so it's hard to get any good pictures of her. Whenever I have the camera out she refuses to look at me or the camera. I kinda have to sneak up on her. But here are the pictures she let me take.

Avery with her Dad

O.K. this post is for Rachel because she is always telling me to post something. I guess I'm not very good at this blogging thing seeing as my posts are about a month apart each. But don't worry Rachel told me the error of my ways.

I just like these pictures of Avery and Andy. They are watching Gabba together then reading a book together. The first one is my favorite because they have the exact same expression on their face. It is funny how much they look like each other.

Finger Painting Fun

Avery finger painted today for the first time. It got a little messy but she had a blast! Thank goodness for non-toxic, washable paint.

Avery Walking

I tried to send pictures of Avery's first steps but for those of you that actually want to see her walking here is a little video.

Update in pictures . . .

So here are some random pictures of the past couple months.

Here is a picture of when we went camping. Well I guess I should say a picture of our almost camping trip. It's kind of a funny story. I'll have to tell you sometime.

I just like this picture. I told Avery to smile for the camera and this is what she did.

I'm so excited her hair is finally long enough to put in pig tails. I don't know if you can really tell but they are there.

Here is her cute little pony tail.

Happy 1st Birthday!

So its a week late but Happy bday to Avery. My little bean is a year old. I know its not the most amazing thing that has ever happened but I can't believe that a year ago I didn't have this sweet girl in my life. Here are some pictures of the big day. Enjoy!

Here she is in her fairy costume enjoying a green apple sucker.

We went to the park and she had so much fun on the slides.

The cake before she went at it . . .
