The Fall!

We apologize that it has been so long since we last posted...needless to say life has been pretty crazy! I'm trying to pick up a few extra shifts every now and again at work for some extra dough and Andy has been super busy getting ready for the holidays at church. Avery is also busy growing, talking (a lot!), reading books, and taking things in and out of something else. She's a very organized little girl and likes things to be just the way she wants them to be. Kathy and Roger came to visit us just about a week ago and we had a lot of fun catching up with them and watching Avery interact (we also were able to be productive, planted a garden, painted our kitchen, saw a movie, etc!) Unfortunately we think we're entering the terrible two's a little early, Avery now goes limp if you try to pick her up and she doesn't want to be picked up, she has also thrown herself on the ground only to kick and hit the ground when she didn't get what she wanted (thankfully this has only happened once:) She recently had her 15 month check up where she got 5 shots but she didn't think anything of it, and now she's ready for kindergarten! Doctor says she's doing perfectly. She also returned a week later to receive her flu shot so we're good to go on vaccines! Now if we could only get the tantrums under control...;)

These next few weeks are extra busy as my great friend Kaitlyn is getting married (showers, bachelorette party, rehearsal dinner, wedding, etc.) and Andy is being flown up to NorCal to play at a church up there (PRAY HARD!) So we'll do our best to keep you all updated but can't promise anything!:) Happy fall.


This was when we walked to the market next door and took pictures with pumpkins!


Avery tried to pick this one up...

Grammy gave her a bath cause she had so many beans on her face!


Even closer to those beans:)
