I say this every month, but I can't believe how fast Avery is growing. We had our 4 month check up Monday, and everything looks great! This month Avery weighed in at 15 lb. 11.5 oz. and has grown to 24.5 inches. On Tuesday, Nov. 6th, she rolled over for the first time from her back to tummy. She also can roll from her tummy to back. I can't wait for her to start exploring on her own!

I LOVE this girl!

This morning we tried the highchair for the first time. Avery liked being high up with us at the breakfast table. I can't believe how fast she is growing! It won't be long and we'll be feeding her up here. 

We have halloween pictures! Bella was a "hot" dog and Avery was a watermelon. She didn't stay in it long, but I managed to get a few pictures before her meltdown.

Meltdown...

Today is very special. Avery is 3 months old and it is Bella's 3rd birthday!

We gave Bella a BIG bone for her present

Watching football

 Here is some of the latest pictures of our sweet baby girl! She has such a sense of humor already. We enjoy her every day!

I had a wonderful birthday on Tuesday! Fletch was off and we went shopping as a family.

October 6, 2012

Avery was just as confused as the quarterback was during the Auburn/Arkansas game!

After all this talk about the Presidential debate last night, we had to wear our tax shirt today.

11 weeks, 2 days

Sunday, we visited Mom and Dad in Hartselle for their church picnic. I made Avery a new outfit for the visit. Everyone at church had a fit over her, of coarse, after being talked up by Mom and Dad for so many weeks in the nursery.

We had the best time this weekend seeing our friends in Auburn. Of coarse, I made Avery an outfit for her first tailgate party! The game was so much fun to watch and even though we didn't win, it was memorable.

I have been having so much fun learning to make clothes for Avery Claire. Here's the newest dress and a better picture of my bubble outfit that I plan to monogram for her.

I'm sorry I have not been posting anything lately, as we have been extremely busy. Here's what's been going on over the past few weeks:

On Fletch's birthday, we took Avery on her first trip to the golf coarse...she slept the whole time.

On August 18, Avery got to meet her great, great grandmother and we were able to get a picture of five generations...

The last week of August, we went to Lake Martin and experienced being away from home for the first time with baby Avery

...we learned a lot! While we took almost everything but the kitchen sink, it still wasn't quite enough, and we discovered we needed a bigger car. Two weeks later, we purchased a Sequoia with lots of extra space to grow into. 

Yesterday, Avery turned 2 months old. She had her second doctor's appointment and had to get her vaccinations.  She weighed 13 lbs. 2 oz and has grown to 23 1/4 inches long. Needless to say, she's in the 95%! We are so happy that we have such a healthy baby. She blesses us daily.

I've been learning how to sew baby clothes for Avery. So far I've made a bubble for her, and I'm in the process of making her a dress as well.
