Avery Making Raspberries

Spring time 2010

Easter. Avery eating a plate of whipped cream. She's pretty excited about it too!

 

Is there a theme here? This time Avery and Aaron wrote on each other with markers. So this is Aaron's handiwork. You should have seen Aaron. He had red dots all over his scalp. They both did a good job!

March 2010 we went to Phoenix for Spring break. We hiked one morning up one of the little mountains, called Squaw Peak. This is all of the kids except Brianna. (It wasn't spring break for her college, so she stayed home for her classes.)

On the hike. Avery is a great hiker (she got carried the whole way) She knows how to keep hydrated. I think drinking water was her favorite part.

This was a fun day. I don't know how a little girl can dance so fast. She has some good moves! Alisa and Stephen had fun dancing too.

Avery's fun and games

This is not yoga. Just bouncing around on our kick ball.

Guess!!  markers!

Avery and Angel sitting in her grocery cart. Madeline was playing shopping with Avery. They were rolling around the family room squealing and laughing. The dog got tired of it before Avery did.

February 2010

Christmas

Avery got some toy food for Christmas. Wouldn't you know, she went right for the banana!

Stephen got a kid-sized dog house for Christmas. (Brad and Madeline made it) This is Avery sitting inside it. They like to read books in it and pretend it is their store (they sell, guess... plastic food!)

From Thanksgiving to December 2009

This is Thanksgiving. Avery is a stunt diner.

  

Aaron is trying to put Avery's socks on her.

"I don't care what I get for Christmas. I want my mommy!"

 

When lunch is late... Avery conked out while she was eating.
