Avery's new look!


Ave's got her ear's pierced with her cousin Brooklyn today! She was very brave and didn't mind at all, until they pierced the earring in, then she screamed and screamed. Lucky for her she got a sucker, her first sucker ever and she was a huge mess, but she deserved it after all the trauma. She looks adorable.

This is the best shot of her earring as I could get with her actually in the pic too, I didn't want to just take a pic of her ear, so look closely:)

Look who turned 3!!!

My baby is 3 years old today and I can hardly believe it! We celebrated her birthday on Friday so that Tyler would be here for it since he had to work out of town this week. We had a cowgirl party. Paisley is a huge horse fan, she loves going over to Thanksgiving Point and riding the ponies. She loves to run around the house wearing a hat saying "I'm a cowgirl, yee haw" Pais is 100% girl for sure, she is very emotional and dramatic but we love her no matter what! She is a very smart little girl and we can't get a thing past her.

Some things about Paisley are:
*Her favorite color is of course Pink!
*Her favorite animal is a horse and a dog
*Her favorite thing to eat is chicken nuggets
*Her favorite song is you are my sunshine
*Her favorite thing to do is swim and ride bikes
*Her favorite words are "what the heck!"
*Her favorite toy is her babies

Happy Birthday Pais, we love you so very much!!

Avery Baby is 6 Months

It seems like I just posted her 4 month! Time flies and I have decided that I wouldn't mind if it stood still for a few years right where we are now. Avery is at that perfect age....She is content playing alone for a while, she is sleeping!!! She only wakes up once a night, and is finally on a schedule. She has the cutest little giggle I have ever heard. She just lights up my life, I love her so very much! Not much has changed with her growth the past 2 months though....sadly the little bean stalk has only gained 10 ounces, so now she weighs in at a not so whopping 13 lbs 10 oz. She should be doubled her birth weight which should be 16 lbs. She just keeps growing tall though. She has added another inch to her height. She is in the 9% for her weight and the 90% for height at 27 inches. She still just adores Pais, her eyes light up and she squeals trying to get her attention in the mornings. She has 1 little tooth that has popped up, all the drooling and biting things like crazy was in fact teething, I wasn't sure if she was or not, she has not been that fussy. She likes baby food, but is still not so sure about the veggies, she loves the fruit though. I bought a food grinder and am going to try out some of my own to see if she likes it better than the store bought. All in all she is just a little ray of sunshine:)

Easter


Hope everyone had a good easter! Paisley loved it all, she went easter egg hunting and to open her plastic easter eggs she would tap them like she was cracking them, and then open them to get the candy out. She got some new barbies and last night she wanted to watch a movie so I turned one on for her and went in to check on her to find her barbies on their couch watching the movie with her. She is a funny little girl:)

Bath time and conversations with a 2 year old

Avery LOVES bath time. I have started giving her a bath in the regular tub but for some reason decided to give her a bath in her baby tub the other day, not remembering how she waves and kicks her arms and legs a million times a second in the big tub. She pretty much splashed ALL the water out of her little tub all over me and the floor and would not hold still as you can see from the pictures.


Now for Paisley.....ah what can I say that would best describe her?! She is just a strong personality. With Tyler out of town for work most the week she is the only conversation I get during the day......


Every Day-
Me: Paisley you are so cute!
Paisley: No Mom your the cutest
Me: No you are
Paisley: Ok we are both cute
*******************************************
Driving in the car the other day-
Paisley: UGH
Me: What's wrong?
Paisley: The sun is in my eyes! Go away sun, now is NOT the time
*******************************************
Going to meet my parents for dinner-
Paisley: Mom, I really love the papa with white hair
*******************************************
Tyler singing Paisley you are my sunshine before bed-
Paisley: Daddy am I your sunshine like in the song?
Tyler: Yes(trying to hold back some tears:)
*******************************************
And this one I just have to document before I forget.......
After Avery was born, and her umbilical cord fell out Paisley asked-
Mom where did Avery's cornbelly go?


Ha Ha, she just makes me laugh

Avery is 4 months

Time is flying! Avery went in for her 4 month check-up last week. The doctor said she is healthy, a little on the thin side, but doing great....Avery is 12 lbs. which is in the 20% for babies her age. Her height is 26 inches and is in the 97% Her head is in the 30% So pretty much she is tall and skinny, and I am already finding clothes hard to fit her, all the 3-6 month clothes fit her height but not around her skinny little waist. She is sure to pass her big sis up in the next year if she keeps growing tall! The doctor told me that 4 month olds are his favorite critter around, but I have to disagree. She absolutely wont let us out of her site for very long!
Some of the things Avery is doing(and not doing).....

-She is very opinionated with her screaming voice
-Hates to lie down, whenever she is lying on her back she lifts her head up to look around(it looks like she is doing crunches)
-Loves to watch Paisley jump and play around
-Screams whenever I leave the room
-Giggles at us, and is ticklish
-Has rolled over a few times, but like I said doesn't like to lay down
-Does NOT sleep through the night(longest time block is 7 hrs in the night)
-Can hold toys for a few minutes
-Drools like crazy!
-Always has her hands in her mouth

It is so amazing how different each child is. I was expecting Avery to act and be just like Paisley was when she was a baby, but I was way wrong. It is so fun to watch Avery grow and develop, and to look at the little personality differences.
