5 months old!







So Avery turned 5 months old on Mother's Day. She weighs 17 lbs 10 oz and is 26.5 inches. I cannot believe she is almost half a year old! Here are some of the new things she does:
-laughs
-grabs toys and puts them in her mouth
-well, she puts everything in her mouth! even my hair, lol
-recognizes us and our voices
-ROLLS OVER! :)
She is so amazing. I still can't believe how lucky we are to have her.

Daddy making her laugh!

Laughing at Daddy. Please excuse my messy coffee table in the background, lol!

Happy Mother's Day!!!



So yesterday was my first official Mother's Day and it was great! Billy got up with Avery in the morning so I could sleep in. We then went to Cici's because you all know how much I love pizza! After that Billy took me to Target and I got a new bathing suit, I know have two but since we have a pool in our backyard I think that's acceptable! LOL After that we took Avery in the pool for the first time and had a BBQ. Billy made steak and bacon wrapped shrimp. We had some friends come over and went swimming again. It was such a great day! Avery was the best present of all, but Billy is also getting me (he gets paid Wed so I have to wait until then!) a Wii Fit!! I have been wanting this for a long time!! I am so excited.

Happy Mother's Day to all you awesome mommies out there!!!

What a great weekend!

First we got all dressed up for the Rocket's game! Unfortunately, they lost but they made up for it on Sunday with a win! We are now tied 2-2! GO ROCKETS!!






Then we celebrated my brother's 20th birthday! It was Avery's first time sitting in the high chair! Usually she sits in her car seat but she is big enough for the high chair now. She was pretty fussy, but she hadn't napped that day at all. She still did a great job and was happy most of the time.





Avery took her first swim in the pool! Billy bought her an inflatable baby boat. She didn't really know what was going on but we think she enjoyed it!

We have a roller!!!!

She rolled for the first time- and she did back to tummy which is the hardest. I couldn't be more proud! :) She was flat on her back but had already moved to her side before I got the camera going.
