January

Here are some shots we took of Avery over the past month, hard to believe she is almost 8 months old!!!

Avery is trying to use a sippy cup now, she can't quite get the concept of tipping her head back but she can get milk from it, so we are halfway there!

She just looks so grown up in this picture.

Lance took this picture one day. Avery is now grabbing everything that she can get her hands on and when he was making her bottle, she grabbed her entire can of formula! She is posing perfectly! I think she needs to be the next Gerber baby spokesperson!

This is Avery's first time in a swing. She loved it. She was so cute holding on to the rope and she just kept smiling and laughing. I think we were swinging for almost 30 minutes!

We were at the mall and saw these hats, Avery wanted to try on the zebra one.

I know I haven't posted in over a month.... we took over 600 pictures at Christmas and I am just now getting to sort through them all. We had a great Christmas, Avery had so much fun. It surprised me a bit; she really had fun opening presents and ripping the paper. I really thought she might be too young to really care, but she had a blast. We had so much fun watching her explore the presents and playing with all her gifts. She had 4 opportunities to open gifts, such a spoiled little thing....
