Avery is 18 Months Old !!!



Avery is 18 months old and is constantly moving. She is practically a blur. And she is so very chatty! She can repeat almost anything! And has begun to say 2-word phrases, like "Hi Momma". She can now pronounce Reilly's name perfectly, and you should have seen his face light up when he heard that!!! It was like puppies on Christmas Morning.

She LOVES washing her hands, as just an excuse to splash. She is very independent, case in point: she is really good at putting on her own pants.


She has her bedtime routine down. First, she says "Rock-a-baby" and we rock after her bath. Then, she says "Book" and of course we read a few. Then she says, "B" which is her favorite blanket. And finally, she points and says, "BED" and we lay her down and she drifts off to sleep. Yes, really. It's only fair, since Reilly was soooo difficult to put down when he was her age.



Her favorite foods are cereal bars and cantaloupe. (Which she asks for by name, a cereal bar is a "huh bah" and cantaloupe is simply "lope".)







She has become much more ambitious in her climbing... as in, I could find her running across our couch if I turn my back for even a few seconds!

She loves FLOWERS, and anything sparkly. She is a girl after my own heart.



Sniffing a dandelion

Oooh... that tickles !!



Avery is the most affectionate baby girl, she loves to give kisses and hugs to everyone she loves... and my- do we love our girl!
