Happy St. Patrick's Day!






Avery turned 9 months old on St. Patty's Day, hard to believe! She now weighs 18lbs 10 oz and is 29 inches tall. She is at such a fun age. She loves going for walks and playing with her toys. When we are out she loves looking at wheels and things going by ( dogs, bikes, cars, etc.) She has started going to a Parent's morning out program 2 days a week and has done really well. At school, the teacher tells us that she loves interacting with the other kids and that she loves the musical toys. She can sit up really well on her own, hold her sippy cup, she is pulling up to stand on some objects and can crawl backwards, but she hasn't quite gotten going forwards yet. Her new thing is scrunching up her nose when she smiles for the camera, this is something her cousin Matt used to do, guess it is just a Muller thing! We are loving that the weather is getting nicer because she loves being outside and love that she is getting older and sleeping better! :).

Mardi Gras

Visting my Great Aunt Bessie



First visit to Jackson Square

Eating at Acme Oyster House with Grandma and PawPaw




Avery had a great time at her first Mardi Gras. We got to enjoy Waveland with Lance's parents on Thursday with a crab and shrimp boil. Then the next day we went to New Orleans in the French Quarter, Avery got to see Bourbon street in all its glory during Mardi Gras. She loved looking at all the people and playing with the beads her Daddy caught for her. We were a bit disappointed when the big parade was cancelled on Saturday due to the weather, but had a great time visiting with family and friends. Avery can't wait until next year!
