Fun with t.p.

Since we can't go outside cuz it's freezing and Avery doesn't always sleep much we have to be creative. This day we played with t.p. Who knew that it made such a fun toy. It kept her occupied for a VERY long time.

My thoughts exactly...

I don't think Avery was too excited about dirty laundry-what do you think?

Aunt Jenni

Avery loves her Aunt Jenni and why wouldn't she- she spoils her rotten. :)

I just loved this picture and had to post it.

Papa's Slippers

We went to my parents house on Sunday to celebrate my dad's birthday- (Happy Birthday Dad-love you!) and Avery had fun walking around the house in his slippers. She loves shoes and anything else she can put on her feet lately. (And yes-that is a pony tail in her hair- don't you love it?! )

Avery loves Boz

Avery has developed a deep love for Boz dvd's. She watched them ALOT when she was sick- it was all she wanted to do. We can't say anything related to Boz in front of Avery because then she wants to watch it right away. She will walk up to the t.v. and point and say Boz. Too cute.This picture is of her laying in her basket of stuffed animals watching her good buddy Boz.

Guest Blogger-Avery

Hi Everyone, Usually my mommy writes about me but I think I am big enough now to type on the computer myself. I am having lots of fun this winter even though I can't go outside. I like to play with all my new toys from Christmas and bug my doggy Roscoe. I love you. Love,Avery

P.S. I miss you Great Grandma V and can't wait until spring when I can see you again.

Yuck, Yuck, Yuck

Poor Avery- doesn't she look sad in this picture. Avery had the flu a few weeks ago and it went through our whole family. YUCK! She spent alot of time like this just laying around. She's doing much better now though and we are so thankful for a healthy little girl again.

Children's Museum

Avery had a blast on Friday at the Children's Museum. There is so much to see and do. She loved the bubble station and would have really made a mess if we let her. She had fun in the penquin play area too. What a fun day.

Cousins

Avery playing with her cousins on New Years Day.

Critter Barn

My mom and I took Avery to the Critter Barn to see the live nativity. We tried 3 times to go but couldn't because of bad weather. When we finally did make it- the weather was still not good but it was our last chance. Avery loved seeing all the critters. She wanted to hold the little chicks but I'm sure she would have squished it. It was a great reminder of what Christmas is all about.

So Sleepy

This is what happens after all the Christmas fun- you fall asleep in your high chair when you are supposed to be eating lunch. So cute...

Beautiful Music

She's a natural at the piano- she must get that from her Grandma V. :)

Christmas with the VZBG's

We celebrated on Christmas day with my family. We had a fun filled day. Avery got a pony! Avery again had so much fun opening presents but most of all enjoyed being the center of attention all day. She is such a ham- I think the pictures show it all.

Christmas-Just us

Christmas Eve with Kuipers

We celebrated Christmas with the Kuipers on Christmas Eve. Avery had fun with her cousins and we had a good time watching all the kids. Of course, we couldn't get the perfect picture of three kids but it turned out pretty good. We are so blessed.

Merry Christmas

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas. Love- K, K & a (& Roscoe)

Christmas baking

Avery has been "helping" me get my Christmas baking done.

Congrats!

Scott & Kelli are getting married. We are so excited!

Here comes trouble

This picture doesn't even need any words. (Sorry it's sideways.)

Watching Cartoons

Avery likes to watch a few cartoons in the morning before she starts her day. Current favorites are Blue's Clues and Franklin.
