all about avery...

This is going to be really long... so sit back, relax and enjoy the happenings of Avery the last few months.

Starting with the most recent... Avery's blessing day was November 29th. Rands parents, brother Tyler and his wife Melanie were in town for thanksgiving and the blessing. Rand gave her a beautiful blessing at our home. Pretty sure there wasn't a dry eye in the house. Rands mother made Avery's dress- it is amazing. She spent about three months making it. We took several pictures of her dress, but none turned out great, so we will have to re-take some.

I love her face in this picture. I hope she doesn't hate me for those ears when she is older!

This is the best picture of her dress. Isn't it beautiful?

Rand's parents and us. This is the only family picture we got that day...

Avery loves her grandma (ps, remind me to ALWAYS have a bow on her head... or she looks like a boy ;) )

Last month Avery finally decided that she likes to smile! It took a while to get her to do it, but she is a smiling fool these days-especially in the morning. It is difficult to get a good picture of her smile, because once she sees a camera... it's over! So that is why these are all at a low angle- I was distracting her while Rand snuck a few pictures.

Bath time is one of her favorite things. She gets really excited and loves to kick and splash; making sure to always get me wet.

I just thought this one was really cute- even though we don't take her to church, we still dress her up on Sundays. I love her face while she sleeps.

And of course halloween. We stayed indoors on halloween so Avery wouldn't get sick. So I didn't get her a cute costume, but I couldn't resist a cute onesie and bow!

I'm not sure what is so scary, but she looks like she is about to pee her pants... er, diaper! haha

We didn't get any christmas cards out this year, so look forward to a christmas post very soon! The suspense is killing you I know it! :)
