Avery 21 Months

21 Months have come and gone - our little Avery is more and more a little person.  She has a very determined personality that can be shy at time but boy does she know what she wants!




Rachel has made sure that every week there is a craft project that is going on and this one was making a bird house out of a milk carton, which you loved.  You painted it yourself, put on the stickers, filled it with seed and then picked out where to hang it.  Unfortunately we didn't anticipate the bugs eating the milk carton so we'll have to replace with a sturdier version later this summer. 







Daddy was home earlier from work on day this month so he decided to bring you downtown to Mommy's office and visit with everyone and then we went and had a yummy dinner after the visit.  It was so cute to have you running around the office, everyone loves when you visit. 




We also decided to plant a little herb garden on the deck.  We bought mint, basil, chives, rosemary, dill, cilantro and a tomato plant.  Avery is excited to water them every day. 


Unfortnatly this month Avery got very sick and came down with Strep throat.. at first we thought it was a bad cold but after throwing up we called the dr and insisted a visit, even though they told us it was unlikely she would have it.  Sure enough she did and so did Rachel.  Mommy spent two days at home after that making sure everyone got better.  Brisco was a good doggie and didn't leave your side all day. Mommy also let you watch TV pretty much all day since that was all that you wanted to do besides snuggle. 


we didn't make it to bed for a nap, the basement floor was fine. 

Once we kicked our strep, we were on to the next adventure.  We've started doing a little shopping for baby boy, although mommy is having a really hard time picking items out.  Avery thought this rocker was perfect for her little brother. 


Morning snuggles before mommy left for work.

Back to play dates with Emma









Daddy and Rachel had a very sweet Mother's Day all ready to go for Mommy.  Avery made Mommy an adorable apron for cooking with her hands as flowers and her feet as a butterfly.  She also colored a water bottle for mommy to use at work which i loved.  We went to our usual Hub51 for brunch which wasn't the same with Nana still in florida. 












Starting to get comfortable with sitting on our training toilet, no action yet.
