Springtime!

We are so glad Spring is almost here! We've had a rough few weeks. Avery had RSV, then an ear infection, and then we all had a stomach virus! It was horrible. So we are very happy that we are all well, it is warm outside, the sun is shining and we are able to enjoy the beautiful weather and get some fresh air!

We had Avery's 12 month check up last week and everything was great. She's very healthy. She weighed 20 pounds 6 ounces, which is only 3 ounces more than she weighed at her 9 month check up, and 29 inches long. We think her weight was lower than expected because of several things...1) she's been mobile for a few months, 2) she's not drinking formula any more, and 3) she had just gotten over a stomach virus. But she's still in the 50th percentile for weight so she's doing well!

Avery's hair is growing fast! We have to keep a clip in it all the time so it won't be in her face.

We were trying out a trendy new look here. I think it's pretty cute!

Silly girl!

One day recently while we were hanging out in the living room, we looked over at Avery and she had gotten Adam's baseball cap off of the couch and put it on her head. Adam was so proud!



Avery has been a picky eater recently. There are a few things she will always eat...pasta pick-ups, scrambled eggs, Cheerios, any kind of snacks (puffs, yogurt melts, etc.) and bananas. Everything else is a gamble. We're going to keep trying though and hopefully she will expand her horizons :)

Here she is enjoying her pasta pick-ups

This past weekend, we were able to enjoy some nice weather. We were excited to break out some of Avery's new Spring clothes.

What a diva in her sunglasses!

We met my mom, aunt and nephew for lunch. Zachary and Avery had a good time entertaining each other.


Here are some other recent pictures of Avery.

You can see all of her teeth in this picture. She has 6 that have come in (4 on top and 2 on bottom) and 2 more that are breaking through on the bottom.
