Gavin 10 Months and September

Gavin was 10 Months old on 8/22/2017! What a silly boy he has become, he is so sweet and gentle, loves his sister, mommy and daddy.  He has 4 teeth on top and 2 teeth on bottom but it's been hard to keep track because they keep coming in.  He is pulling himself up on furniture and cruising along everything.  
















We love snapchat filters!!



We have started to venture out more at dinner time now that Gavin is eating more food - on a no plans Saturday we went to a new park with the kids and then had dinner on Southport at Coda di Volpi, the kids were great and Avery ate all our pizza which was a win with that picky eater.  Gavin was so well behaved in his highchair it was a win for mom and dad. 


Playing at the park

Auntie Megan stopped by one night to bring Avery a sweet birthday present. 

Lunch on the deck



Avery started preschool school 9/5 which was beyond exciting for us!!  The week prior the school had a fun petting zoo in the playground area. Rachel took Avery and Gavin over to meet her teacher and pet some animals. 


Avery is back at her ballet class and is being a little trouble maker some weeks.  Listening has been a struggle however she has the best time and really enjoys going.  Good news is Joffrey ballet doesn't have any castings till a few years 😏


















Andie Slovick's birthday is only six weeks after Avery's so it's always fun to join her birthday parties up in Barrington.  This year it was Wizard of Oz themed and the girls had so much fun playing they were beyond cute in the playhouse the whole day!






Avery had her 2nd dentist appointment for her 3 yr check up.  Mommy got scolded and needs to be sure she is going every six months.  The great news is she really enjoyed going and loved Dr. Megan.  She was an excellent patient and barely moved from the chair - probably bc Mickey Mouse was on the TV.


Nana keeps pulling out treasures from her basement box of goodies.  The latest was Mommy's old tricycle. Avery didn't fully get the concept of riding it but she will with practice. 



Park fun together






Avery's in Preschool (3's)

Avery Started preschool on 9/5/2017! She's in a three's classroom and goes two days a week for half days.  It has been amazing to see how much she has developed since going to a classroom.  Drop off has certainly been difficult for her but after about a month she adjusted and is much better when we drop her off in the morning.  No tears the last few weeks!
