Avery - 8 months - May 4

What a joyful little month that Avery has had! She continues to be a light to our family.  She is flexible, flexible, flexible...when a certain little boy is needy and wants to eat, she waits, when someone else needs to go to the bathroom, she gets put down and waits, when someone needs their shoes tied, she waits.  Do you get the picture-she is patient.  The only time she gets fussy, is at 6:30-when the whole house is fussy (hungry, tired, missing daddy, etc)








Avery is sitting up well and enjoys being entertained from a different view point.  She explores her toys with such interest and intent.  She hasn't gotten any teeth but they sure do look ready to come in (but I have been saying that for months).  









She is getting the orange nose from her orange veggies (just like Caleb got).  I try to limit her orange veggies to one a day or one every couple of days but when she eats 2-3 containers at one sitting (at lunch and dinner), it is hard to vary her food.









It melts our heart to see her brothers get so excited to see her, they love playing with her, giving her (safe) toys to play with, encouraging her to start crawling, kissing her, and cuddling with her.  She is well-loved, protected, and cared for by her big brothers.  Davis has learned how to say her name, "Avy Cake"  It is the sweetest thing to hear!









Happy 8 months Big Girl-We love you so!!
