The Massachusetts Vacation Mega Post – Part 2

Avery’s Papa (Ed) took a bunch of photos on our recent visit to Plymouth. He was kind enough to share them with us over the weekend, so I thought I’d put them up here for everyone to see. Thanks Papa!

The Massachusetts Vacation Mega Post

Posted on by Dad

Last week, Avery visited Massachusetts for the first time, spending time in West Boylston, Leominster, Brockton, Plymouth, and East Bridgewater. It was a whirlwind vacation and by the time we boarded the plane to come back to Phoenix, Avery had been hugged, kissed, held, fed, and played with more than most kids are in a […]

Nine month checkup

Posted on by Dad

Well, it was back to the doctor’s office today for the nine month checkup. Avery’s doing great. She’s 21 lbs., 7 oz. and stands 28 inches tall. This puts her in the 86th and 54th percentiles, respectively. Her head circumference is in the 50th percentile. All her activity and motor skills are right where they […]

Playing in the kitchen

We broke out a new toy last night. Not much got cooked, but everything got smashed, thrown, shouted at, and mouthed.

A Ladies Lunch

I had a brunch planned this past weekend to catch up with my friends Marion, Darlene and Lisa and Avery wanted to come too. She was so upset the entire ride into Scottsdale but perked right up when she got inside the restaurant. She ate her lunch right beside her new lady friends and seemed […]

A little more freedom

Posted on by Mom

Jeff and I love to go out to lunch on Saturdays. It’s become a little tradition. Avery used to just hang out in her car seat with us while we dined until recently. She had her first experience in a restaurant high chair, and there is no turning back.  She was engaged the entire time, […]
