Avery's 1st Birthday

We cannot believe that Avery is a year old already! Time is flying by and there is no stopping it. We had a fun party for her on Sunday the 8th, with our family that lives in town. We missed all of you that live far away! Avery is growing very slowly, but she is healthy. She is now 16lbs 5oz and 27 3/4 in. long. She is pulling herself up to standing now. Avery is our talker. She loves the phone, especially the cell phone. Every time she drops a toy, she says uh-oh, and she has learned to say what sounds like Hi. Give us a ring and you will definitely get an ear full. Avery has also learned to give hugs and kisses which are the best! We love her very much.


First attempt at a cupcake cake. The frosting was too runny, but oh well, there is always next year!


Avery had to be hand fed her birthday cake. She would poke her finger in it, but no chance of her smearing it all over.



Thanks to Charlie, Avery had a lot of help opening her presents!
