This fall and winter have been incredibly fun so far! We are in our new house and Avery is loving all the festivities that come along with the seasons. She did have a bit of a rough time several weeks ago when she fractured her right arm (no cast needed thankfully!) and then immediately came down with a nice case of the croup. Needless to say, she got a little pampering for about a week... you know, lots of one-on-one time with mom, being read as many books as she wanted, being rocked in the middle of the night for as long as she wanted and getting to eat meals in the livingroom while watching PraiseBaby DVDs. I'm still battling the spoiling we gave her that week. :)
Here she is during that time watching PraiseBaby... she's normally only allowed one a day, if that, but that week... well, she was in charge. Life's tough, huh?
Her recovery was quick. These little guys can bounce back from anything! Avery decided it was time to get outside and be helpful. She's helping her Daddy prune the cannas back for the winter. Just some cute pictures
You can see her teeth here a little. We're up to 6 now; progress is slow and steady. :)
Helping Mommy with the laundry. Her gift is definitely unloading the hamper. The Captain and Aunt Tara came to visit with Kellan and Parker. They're moving to Paris in January!!!! We are so excited! Take a look at the rolls on this sweet girl! I'm very sad Avery missed this stage so I'm enjoying it vicariously through Parker. :)Kellan and Avery getting clean after a long day of playing. Not sure about the look on Kellan's face.We had Christmas with the Spencer family a weekend early this year. Pawpaw is reading a Christmas story to the girls on "Christmas Eve".
Avery loves the Christmas trees! We can touch, but only with one finger (surprisely it works for both Avery and Roselyn most of the time!)Avery helping in the kitchen with Christmas Dinner.She found a hat and some cookies in her stocking at Pawpaw and Grandmommy's house. I'd say they're pretty proud grandparents, wouldn't you?
This was just too cute to pass up! Don't you just want to squeeze him?
You're seeing right... the focus is on Kanyon's new "J's". Yes, you're reading correctly Kanyon has his own Michael Jordan basketball shoes now too. In fact, all 3 Spencer babies have their own. Coming from a baseball family myself, I really don't understand, but to each his own! :) It is pretty funny to see them on. This is Avery "Christmas Day" at Brad and Gwen Ann's. She and Roselyn racked up the presents and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
I'll end with a sweet picture of Avery in her Christmas present from Pawpaw and Grandmommy. She loves riding around in her wagon!
