From the Mouths of (Our) Babes

Avery named his stuffed lion, "Dandy". Love it!

So we found ourselves without a sitter today. Some miscommunication of schedules. It's just a busy time, and not sure where the message got lost. Anyway, so it happened that Charlie dropped by last night. So we asked if Avery and he could play tomorrow, and as it turns out---perfect! We brought Avery over to Charlie's this AM and he just spent the day at Charlie's, playing with all the kids. He loved the babysitter, Kira, too, so might have a new sitter option! Lovely! When I went to pick him up, Kira reported that Avery was "very easy" and "really a good kid." She said she'd love to babysit for him again any time! And Avery came home, had a snack, and I told him he should take a nap---and he did! So it all works out.

This morning, Avery came over to me and sniffed, and then said, "You smell good." Then, he ran over to Walker, sniffed, and said, "and you don't."

He's clearly ready for the big time.

From out of nowhere, a little hand appeared at lunch on Sunday. It snagged the plate of dumplings and disappeared.
