The flower is not big enough!

Avery posing her yellow dahlia!

Thanks to my friend Ashley and her beautiful daughter Anika, I have become obsessed with bows and big flowers.  Now those of you who know me well, when I had McKayla, I was anti headbands or bows, etc. I loved putting her hair in piggytails...that was in the past.  Avery and McKayla's collection is slowly growing.  This spring I am hoping to get a pic of my girls in their yellow flower headbands that were given by Nana, Uncle Paul, and Bridget.  Here is a preview of one of them!

Avery is growing like a weed.  In fact, just his week she is mobile!  No she is not a pro at crawling, but she is getting the movements down and before we know it, it is hello babygates and hello crazy mom making sure nothing will be on the floor.

I love Avery's little tiny feet! Notice that they are bare.  That is because my cutie patootie loves pulling off her socks.  My brother has convinced me that Puma makes this socks that do not come off easily.  I will have to test them on Avery...

A happy baby is a healthy baby!

Avery will be 8 months soon.  Hard to believe how much time has gone by.  She is in love with eating carrots, squash, sweet potato, and even green beans.  We are still trying to convince her that peas are yummy, but if you ask her, she will let you know how she feels about them.  Let's just say she has the temper of her mom and dad...  Avery's hair is getting thicker.  We are hoping that she will have curly hair like McKayla did when she was an infant.  I hope so because I loved playing with the ringlets.
