Finally A Beautiful Day in Ohio!

Hanging out on the porch with Mommy.


Her neighbor, Brennah, taught her how to go head first down the slide.....It's funny if the slide is hot from the sun Avery says "hot mommy blow it off!"

I can't STRESS how much she loves to swing.

Her first pair of Levi's :)

She also loves bubbles.

Doing her "flip" in the grass. What a beautiful day we had!

I'm 23 months old today!

Shhhhh only 31 more sleeps till I'm 2 years old!!!

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWX(YZ)!

Yea!!! I FINALLY captured Avery singing her ABC'S on video!!! She always forgets her Y & Z but that just makes it that much cuter. As you mom's (and dad's) know it's so hard to get them to perform when the camera is out....and BONUS she also sang I Love You and part of Itsy Bitsy Spider. As Avery would say....."I'm So Happy" and I truly am!

All Aboard!

Today we went to Lodi Outlets in Burbank, Ohio with Jen and Natalie. We took the girls along so they could ride the Choo-Choo Train! Thank goodness for cell phones with cameras since my sister took my camera today.



They were saying "Chugga!" and Avery would sing her Choo-Choo song....they were so funny!


Avery was SOOOOO excited!

What a way great to end a day of shopping.....a 2o minute ride on the train......relaxing!

Ride'm Cowgirl!

Avery still loves her horsey and still loves to be "naked"!

Yea! I finally got clothes on her!

Happy Anniversary!

Well Josh and I had celebrated our 4th anniversary today. Typical day, errands, paid bills, laundry, cleaning, taking care of Avery and Josh worked till 2ish. Then that evening I made plans to go to Malcuit's Tavern in Strasburg. I've heard nothing but great reviews on their steaks.......BUT the last 3 years I've picked horrible places when getting great reviews :( So we took Avery to her Mimi and Pop-Pop's and headed to Strasburg. It was good....not the best steak I've ever had nor the worst and Josh said the same thing. Their seasonings are really different. I got the filet and he got the NY strip and I couldn't believe how different they were seasoned...I did not like his seasonings. So $80 and 45 minutes later another Anniversary meal had been had. You may ask why don't I let Josh pick.....well then I would be eating at the Mexican Restaurant in Millersburg! Ha! Next year he suggested City Square Steakhouse in Wooster. We've eaten there one time for our firm's Christmas Party and it was good. So there you have it!

Goofy Girl!

Oh Avery!!! First thing this morning her jammy top comes off and shoes go on......ta-da mommy!







Then she found my sunglasses. I can tell she's getting taller nothing is safe anymore!

All morning she's been undressing herself....I would put her clothes back on since we needed to go the bank and when I called her to go she came running with just a diaper on!

Then after my shower this is how she was.....she put on every single piece I had on...my tank top around her neck, sweatshirt on her head, pj pants she's holding and my footies are on her hands! She did have my underwear around her feet....but we didn't need those in the picture...lol!
