So I am finally getting around to doing an update. I am such a slacker when it comes to the blog. These pictures are not in any order but I am not in the mood to put them in order so sorry!

Avrie LOVES riding in grandpas tractor! If she hears anything that sounds like it she looks around to see where it is and gets so excited.

Our yard gets irrigated once a week, yea for me. Me and sprinklers don't get along so this works out great. Avrie loves being in the water, so we tied her to the kneeboard and took her for a ride. She loved it.

Getting ready to go hit some ball with dad.

Her "uh-oh, where did it go" face. LOVE IT!!!!!

She loves to be outside but hates the way the grass feels on her knees. So this is her spidercrawl!

And last but not least, WE ARE SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  How excited am I, not very!!!! lol

Long time no post, huh?

Well I have been neglecting my blog, due to my obsession with farm town on facebook, but I have been going to a sort of AA meeting for this addiction and I am getting better:)! We have had some changes in our life. We moved into a house, so we are no longer cave dwellers in my brothers house. We have a ton more space and Avrie has her own room. She has grown up so much in the last couple of months. She is a crawling monster, if I take my eyes off of her for 2 seconds she is in another room. She has learned how to pull herself up to everything, no major injuries yet(knock on wood). She has learned how to say mom, dad, kitty, and dog. Yesterday she clapped and waved goodbye for the first time. She loves to play ball with Tyler and she gets so excited when he comes home from work. She still has no teeth, which is fine with me since she nurses still. Here a some pictures, brace yourself there are a lot. One of my 12 steps is to blog once a week so cross your fingers for me. LOL!!!

That's all for now!

So I decided that it would be fun to do a Valentine photo shot with Avrie. She was so good. She didn't really smile a whole lot but she liked picking up the rose petals. I have to say that they turned out pretty good for doing them at my house!

Merry Christmas to everyone. Avrie was more excited about the bows and ribbons than her presents! We sure had fun watching her trying to take them off of the boxes. We attempted to take a family picture with everyone, the animals weren't so cooperative, but I think it turned out pretty good. We hope everyone has been enjoying their holiday and hope that the New Year will bring happiness to you!

Happy 6 month birthday Avrie

Today is Avrie's 6 month birthday today. I can't believe how fast that 6 months went by. She has been such a joy and blessing to us. We waited so long for her to come and join our family but it was well worth it. We love her so much!! We are so excited to watch her grow but are sad at the same time. She is truly an angel sent to us by our Heavenly Father and I am so grateful for that.

What Avrie has decided to give up!!!!

So my daughter has decided that it is okay to give her binki (spelling?) and bottles up ! I am happythat she gave the binki up but not so much the bottle. She is still nursing so as long as I can stay home she can nurse. When we go somewhere she usually would take a bottle but no she REFUSES! What is a mom to do when their baby does that? She has been eating cereal for 2 months and will start vegetables this month. She is getting so big!

Happy Holidays to everyone!

We went down to Temple Square and had some family pictures taken. Tyler and Avrie look so cute is this picture. She loves her daddy. He is the only one that can get her to laugh really hard and when he comes home from work she smiles so big!
