So Big!

Avery has learned the "so big" thing... it's really cute! It's really funny because after she raises her arms up, she has started rubbing her hands down her face... we think it's pretty hilarious!

Helping Mom In The Kitchen

I pulled the highchair into the kitchen while I was making dinner... mostly to keep Avery occupied so she wouldn't lose it. So I gave her the "task" of holding the spatula and plastic biscuit cutter. She is going to be a great chef! :)

Story Time With Mom

Avery and I had some bonding moments reading "The Big Red Barn" before bed. She would look at the book and then look at me... so fun! And then she kept trying to kick the book out of my hand. It was great!

Nice Do!

Avery is certainly not biased with who she chooses to drench when she is taking a bath. Brian got it this time... and check out those curly locks she's got going on!

Grammy Time





Brian's mom came out to visit and had a great time with Avery! It was so fun to see Avery's eyes light up with her and we are pretty sure the Kathy (aka. Grammy) enjoyed it too! Pin It

Staff Retreat '08

We just got back from our end of the year staff retreat up in Steamboat Springs... had a great time. It feels good to wrap up the year and step into having a few days of rest before we head out for summer project. Avery got to hang out with the other staff kids (there are 4 others)... she LOVED laughing with them, playing, staring at them, and being the center of attention. She also got to go swimming in a pool for the FIRST TIME! She looked so cute in her little bikini, with her belly rolls hangin' out all over the place. Here are some pics of the kids & Avery from our trip.

Lacy, Ben, & Avery

Avery thought it might be fun to grab Ben's hair

Avery's first time in the pool

We hung out in the pool for a long time... Avery loved it!

Splish Splash

Avery's new favorite thing is splashing in the tub... we offer her a rubber duck, foam letters... all to no avail. She wants to splash. I have gotten soaked a lot & here is a little proof.

Check out my pants!!! Pin It
