Too long!

Well it's been a long time since we've posted any updates...sorry guys! The craziness that is our lives has actually picked up some since our last update. Haley has taken a part time job in Biola's nursing department as an instructor of senior precepting students and Andy is very busy taking care of Avery (especially now that she's rolling over!) and continuing to search for jobs. Here are a few pictures!!!
This was Avery's church outfits for one of Daddy's auditions!
Avery loves to cuddle with her stuffed animal lion, put that in combo with her mobile and she just giggles!
Family vacation in San Diego we stayed in a hotel, we didn't know where to put Avery so she slept in the bath tub...look at her though, she loved it!
Auntie Cori's house warming party...Avery was of course the center of attention.
Family photo before Mom and Dad left to go to the U2 concert!
Going to the pumpkin patch!
Mom and daughter as corn on the cob!
Out little pumpkin
uh oh...we have a sad sheriff!
So cute.
Got a little smile out of her
Family photo op!
There was confusion on whether or not she was a girl or a boy...
We of course have to pose with the oversized cat...since you all think we're obsessed...

gettin crafty!

alright...so we were inspired by a headband that roomy katie j gave avery as evidenced here...although avery is making a really funny face!



this is the same day when we were out to dinner, avery wanted to be the center of attention so we put her on the lazy susan, she loved it!



so the next day we (katie, avery, and i) went shopping to get supplies...we plopped avery up on the table so she could continue to be our inspiration, she did a great job!



so here is one that we created...this is her all white one! (she's still in her pj's though...)




every girl needs a leopard bow (partly inspired by my trip to WA, thanks danielle!)



and lastly a nice flower...katie and i are thinking of going into the business!

Always doing fun things...

It's kind of funny when you have a baby you feel somewhat inspired to do things like going to the beach, having parties etc.  All things that normally we would stay at home and watch TV but now we want her to experience everything she can (despite the fact that she wont remember a thing:) So here are some pictures of our latest adventures!


Our Small Group although sadly this is a picture from our farewell party for the McGees.  Holly, Rob, and Silas will be moving to Tennessee within the next few weeks, we had fun but will definitely miss them as they're gone!


little miss avery jean is starting to love her johnny jump up!  andy says she's learning that if she presses a button it makes noise and lights up, oh so fun!


Now pictures from the beach...she's not sure how she feels in this one.  after showing her the beach for the first time the 3 of us went on a long awaited date to BJ's brewery where we ordered everything in site...one of the best nights the 3 of us have had in a long time!


after an amazing dinner we heading back to the beach for the avester to eat her dinner and for andy and i to enjoy the sunset and cool air!


mommy tries to take advantage of all the time she gets with her little one cause it seems far and few between these days!


daddy spinning her around...thankfully before her bottle


they're quite the pair, especially with all the time they spend together!


our first bottle on the beach...she absolutely loved it!  she kept kicking the blanket out of the way so that she could have her feet in the sand!  it was a glorious night!
