My new buddy!

A few weeks ago we spent the evening at the Lewis's and Austin became best buds with Caleb. They were singing and playing and it was so darn cute. The boys went and picked up food and drinks from Sonic....gthats when we discovered that Caleb loves ice. Whatever Austin was doing Caleb wanted to do the same.

Peek a boo!



Caleb wanting to spit his ice back in the cup b/c it was too cold. So Austin lended his hand instead.

Caleb going in for some ice. Love it!

10 Months

What a month so far.....this month started with Avery having a double ear infection. I just thought she was teething which was causing her to have a runny nose and a low grade fever, boy was I wrong. Within 2 days after taking her in over the weekend to the on call doctor her eardrum erupted. She woke up with blood all in her bed and we couldnt figure out where it came from. There is no sign of blood anywhere. So I called the doctor....she suggested and erupted eardrum and asked me to look in her ear for any sign of drainage or blood. I saw nothing. Within less then an hour the nasty stuff was coming out of her ear. I called the doctor immediately and they got her in. She has been on medicine ever since. I took her back this past Thursday because she is still having drainage...so they gave her a shot. Poor sweet baby. I think the shot has helped but she goes back on Monday and will probably have to have another shot since the drainage is not completely gone yet. I am just praying we do not have to put tubes in. On a lighter note.....

What is Aves up to these days
- finally cut her first tooth ( i had my first tooth before I was six months so she is taking after her daddy)
- took her first step and fell right on her sweet face
- loves making noises with her mouth
- are completely on formula now and are okay with it.
- loves pointing
- always clapping
- loves to copying whatever you do
- doesnt like to be left alone in a room
- loves chasing Maddie the dog
I know there is alot more...but this is all I can think about right now since she has just been loving on mommy all month b/c she has felt good.


Mommy I dont feel good...stop taking pictures. Oh, and no I dont dress her up when she is sick...we were on our way to another doctors appt.

Look at me go

She's got this walking thing down...now if only she would let go. Aves is standing alone but hasnt taken that step yet. I know it will not be long and she will be walking everywhere. My little girl is growing so fast.

Nana is so funny

Avery thinks her nana is so funny. My mom came down last weekend and Avery had a laugh attack at dinner. My mom was just throwing her hands up and down and Avery thought it was so funny. ENJOY!

My Little Ladybug

Halloween was so fun this year since I had a little "doll" to dress up. Ha! I just dont know what I would do if I had a boy. Poor thing would probably be like Ken the barbie. Well actually it would be a lot easier b/c you dont have to dress a boy up just to run to the store, but you must always dress a girl up and put a bow in her hair (even if she pulls them out). So back to Halloween....we went to our church festival which was super crowded. We didnt end up staying long b/c Avery isnt old enough to play any of the games yet. She did get herself an animal balloon...she loves balloons. Then we headed over to Aunt JenJen and Uncle Kellys and visited for a while and then headed home for trick or treaters. Their were not many this year. Our neighbor had a halloween party and then at dark took the kiddos out but not to many kiddos were out. I think so many churches now are doing festival, which I is awesome. Avery had such a great first Halloween and look so cute in her ladybug costume.
