9 Months

Left her alone for a second to unload the washer and she managed to open the drawer under the oven and get in it.

So Bad about Blogging!!!

Avery is 9 months I can't believe it! She is standing on her own now, we are pretty sure she will be walking by Halloween. She is talks/babbles all the time, she has started to point, and she laughs all the time. We have also realized she is going to be a climber. Tonight she climb onto the fireplace and then got down by herself. She did it like she had done it a 100 times. She loves to open the cabinet in the kitchen and take all the plastic bowls and lids out. She has the best time!!! She is doing so good at bedtime, we did the cry it out thing for about a week and a half. Now when it's time for bed we have a bottle (sometimes), read a book and then I lay her down and she goes to sleep. No crying!!!!! Oh and she has 2 teeth. Okay thats enough blogging for now. I will post pics later!

Busy Girl!

I can't believe Avery is already 8 months old. She is a very happy and busy baby. She has been crawling for 2 months now and gets into everything. She is very busy but is a good baby. Her new favorite thing to do is look out the windows in the kitchen. She has learned how to scream and thinks it is so funny. About a month ago she learned to clap so she claps at herself all the time. She has the funniest personality! She has recently started standing for a couple seconds by herself and then falls to her bottom. She loves to listen to music and watch Noggin. She found the toilet paper the other day and unrolled about half of it.

I will try to be better at this bogging stuff.

Popsicle

The other day at my parents house during bath time we gave Avery a posicle. She really did not know what to think about it. I was really surprised, I have not found anything she doesn't like and she just really was not interested in it at all.

It's Been Awhile

I'm not so good at keeping up with this whole blog thing but I'm working on it. Here are some of her 6 months pictures and some of the things she has been doing lately. She is keeping me really busy. Her new thing now is waving and making this silly face. She cracks me up she is a really funny child and always smiling, laughing and clapping at herself. Now when she hears the bath water running she crawls in there and sits in the floor and looks at me like I'm ready for my bath. She loves her bouncy thing we put in the door way I think she could bounce in it for hours. I love it to because it keeps her in one place. It's the only thing I can put her in and she stays happy. The excersaucer she really doesn't care for anymore. If she not in her bouncy thing than she is all over the place getting into everything she can get her little hands on. We have started to baby proof the house starting with the outlets. Next will be the cabinets. I can't believe she will be 7 months on Sunday, it has gone by so fast!

Look What I Can Do!

Avery started crawling the day she turned 6 months and sitting up on her own without having to hold herself up. A few days later I went to get her up from her nap and she had pulled herself up. She was so cute, she was smiling and laughing like, look what I did Mom. It is crazy how she went from barley sitting up to crawling, sitting up, and pulling up in about a 1 week 1/2 time frame. She is a very busy girl. She is into everything she can get her hands on, but refuses to sit she wants to stand. Her new thing she learned to Patty-Cake and she claps all the time. I have been trying to teach her Patty-Cake but Sunday we were at my parents house and my Mom got her to do it.

Now our big thing we are working on is going to bed. I know and can tell she is so tired but she refuses to go to bed. She fights and fights it. Up until about 2 weeks ago she would go to bed between 7:30-8:00, now she wants to stay up or go to bed then wake up an hour or 2 later. So we will see what happens in the next few weeks, we are trying to be tough!

A Week Late!

Ready to go swimming

Wore out!

Watching the fireworks

Unfortunatley Josh had to work 4th of July weekend. Avery and I had a good time though. Friday night we went to the highlands with Mimi (my Mom), y cousins Matt, Whitney and their daughter Brynlee to watch the fireworks. Avery loved them she watched them in ah. It was way past her bedtime but she did not miss a thing. We hadn't even made it back to the care and she was already alseep.

Saturday we went over to my Aunt and Uncles house to swim, the whole Crimming's clan was there. She loves the water, I really haven't found anything that she doesn't like. Except lately sleep!!! That's a whole other blog! That evening Josh got home at 9:00 and we watched fireworks from our driveway. Hopefully next year he will be off work!
