Happy Birthday

Avery celebrated her 1st birthday on Saturday the 27th. It was a beautiful day. She enjoyed visiting with all of her family. Her Great Great Aunt and Uncle even came. She smashed her cupcake but had a few bites too. She didn't care for ice cream, she said "ew too cold". She is not a fan of cold food or drink. She loved pulling the tissue paper out of the present bags and wanted to climb into the bags. After the party she got to spend the evening playing with her cousins, they spent the night in the camper. She was all tuckered out and slept all night, that was her present to mommy. She is getting so big, to think that just a year ago she was so tiny.

Spring Time Adventures

Avery spent the whole day outside today. She enjoyed lots of new things. Her first adventure included tasting rocks, then she decided she liked throwing rocks. She moved on to tasting sycamore seed pods, wow those things are furry. Oh and then Jr. Mint (1 of our outside cats) came out of hiding to see what we were doing. She is really good with Avery and tolerates the patting and attempts of being picked up. Avery's next treasure made mommy holler, I looked at her and saw that she had something in her hand trying to feed it to Jr. Mint, then she tried a taste of it and when I get to her she has a hold of a crawdad. It was dead thank goodness, but I didn't know that at the time. Jason made lots of fun of my screaming. That was the highlight of his day. Then she moved on to the water puddle in the grill cover, she made sure she got her hair wet and tried a drink just like the bathtub. Then it was back to Jr. Mint. I hope she is wore out and sleeps well tonight.
