Photo shoot!

Well these are just a few of the hundreds of pictures from Avery's photo shoot. How I chose from all of those pictures, I dont know. I toyed with posting like 5 posts, but I guess that would be overkill. She is just so dang cute. Anyways, thanks to Holly for taking such good pictures of my baby!! Enjoy, because I sure did!















I just had to get a picture with her blankie. She sees this blanket and her thumb goes right in. Its pretty dang cute.

Happy Birthday Avery!!

Wow, a year sure has gone by fast. But like it or not, my baby is getting older. We had a birthday party for her on Saturday. It was so fun to see her opening her presents and playing with her cake, which she hated by the way. If you notice in some of the pictures she busted open her eye and it was pretty deep, so I had to glue it back together. One ER visit avoided. Anyways, enjoy! More picture to come. She still has not had her one year old picture taken... so just you wait! By the way, this cake was so hard to make. So good luck to those who attempt to use fondant.





Look at my little princess!!







Im gonna be a soccer player


Pink Converse!! Thanks Auntie Kilean

Labor Day Fun

Well, we all had a good Labor Day here is Hanford. It has been really hot here the last few weeks and it was actually very nice today. We just had a BBQ with our family and some friends. Avery had fun playing in the sprinklers and eating everything. She was just running around everywhere and having a good time!


Playing in the sprinklers.

Hey, it happens to the best of us.

I love frozen peas!!!

Ah man, I dropped one.

I know its here somewhere...

I found it!!

Salsa, really?

So, Avery will basically eat anything. It is great. The other day I made salsa and was having some in the kitchen and Avery walked up to me and was pulling on my leg. I picked her up and she leaned in to get a bite of what mom was eating. Anyways, I gave her a little bite and she was seriously hogging on salsa. And it was not the most mild salsa I have ever had. I am so gratefull for a baby who is such a good eater.

I need some help with some baby shower games. I am throwing a shower for a friend and I want all your ideas on some good games!! Thanks.

Camping!!

We all went camping a few weeks ago and I am finally getting around to putting pictures on the blog. But, here they are. We had a good time hanging out with family and playing in the water. And Avery did surprisingly well.







So, even though the water was freezing, Avery loved it. I pulled her out at one time because she was shaking and her feet and legs were freezing, but she clawed her way back in. Then I turn my head for a minute and she had rocks in her mouth. It was pretty funny.
