HAPPY DAY!


Avery had a great day today. He was SO happy and giggly in the park that several people actually remarked what an incredibly happy baby he was.

He is really able to point out and label things in his world lately. You can ask him questions when he is looking at a book of pictures, or strolling along in his stroller, like, "Where's the tree?" or "Where's the wagon?" and he'll point things out. He also sounds like he's trying hard to repeat more words and sounds. Today, for example, we saw a little baby girl in a stroller named Lily . I said, "baby girl", and Avery replied, "grrrrr".

He also went to sleep with almost NO fussing at all. He was put down in his crib, looked around, yawned, and seemed to settle in. He's never done that before, as he almost starts to cry simply when he knows he's about to be put into his crib.

He's growing up!

Galloping and Pumpkin Rides

Updates: 1. Avery has learned how to gallop. He calls it skipping, and he has been doing it all around the living room, street, park, store... since yesterday afternoon. Everywhere. 2. Avery asked Walker, "What alphabet does your name begin with?" 3. I asked Avery what we are going to do tomorrow, and he said, "We are going to get some hay and ride on a pumpkin!" He's very excited, although he seems to have it switched around a bit.

A New Food Every Three Days...

Image
If you were to try a new food every three days for about a year, don't you think you'd get to the point where you had to be really creative to find something new? With combinations of ingredients, knowing that you have tried one dish, you would think that you'd exhaust the possibilities. Well, we've been new foods like this for some time now, and every time I go to the grocery or Farmer's Market, I come back with something new for Avery. Ritz crackers were introduced today! Chive cream cheese was on the menu a few days ago. This evening, we combined the two for Ritz cracker and chive cream cheese fiesta. Avery hogged down seven crackers piled high with cream cheese, had a huge piece of extra sharp cheddar, and some berry applesauce. This was all washed down with a huge bottle of organic whole milk, which friend Jeanna says, "tastes like fresh cut grass and ice cream." I am going to try to make a list of Avery's favorite foods : Veggies -sw...
