Avery Leigh -18 months

Our sweet and spunky Avery Leigh is 18 months already

(a couple weeks ago now)!

Pictures in a few weeks as well as well-child Dr. visit.

She officially is acting like a toddler. She does everything Aubrey does,

 and it is so fascinating to me how independent she is already! 

Avery talks a ton and always wants to be in the action. 

Popular words: blankie, sippy, Aubrey, Mommy, Daddy, (s)nack, t(h)ank (y)ou, there you go, bomb pop, peek-a-boo, err-body, shoe on/shoe off, don't know, yup, yah, gotcha...

(She seriously will repeat anything you say and 

adds that word to her vocabulary.

Recently: "(What) Are you doing?" ;)

From standing on the step stool to brush her teeth, 

to taking her own shoes off at the door, 

to throwing her diapers in the trash 

and telling us when she goes potty or poo-poo, 

if we or Aubrey does it, so does Avery. 

Aubrey just loves that she has a little shadow 

and giggles a lot at what Avery tries to do and say.

They miss each other a lot when Aubrey is in Preschool two days a week, they just sit and play and hug for about an hour to get almost reaquainted...so sweet!

Since going back to the babysitter, she is a little extra clingy to her blanket and thumb still.

We love you, sweetie!
