Golf!



I can't believe how nice of a day it was!!!

I was so excited for Avery to be able to play outside and not
have to be all bundled up!
She's still in her long johns!
I love it~
And Lucy's helping her check out things behind the shed.



So, this morning Avery wakes up and meets me in the kitchen. I'm getting her morning cocoa ready and she asks me, "Dada golf?"
Allow me to explain...
Harley and my step-dad Dave have been playing Tiger Woods golf on the wii endlessly!!! Dave left the wii at our house over the weekend and Harley's been playing golf...a lot~Avery notices!!!lol
Harley was called to work this morning so He had to take a train to Green River. Avery still asked him before he left if he was going to play golf...
He replied painfully..."No:("

Avery and Cousin Kylee


Cousin Kylee spent the weekend at our house! Avery LOVES Kylee~and so do we!

KISSES!



Isn't that the most innocent face you've ever seen?!


Everybody thinks their kids are the cutest and I can't help but join!
Avery is sooooo funny and has such a HUGE personality
it's very hard to ignore her. She talks so much now I can't believe it...
Still throws the BIGGEST fits you've ever seen...
Is extremely demanding...
Very stubborn~hard-headed...
.
But we LOVE her!
Can't live without you Avery!

FuN at Arctic Circle!

Harley and I took Avery to Arctic Circle the other day for lunch! She had so much fun going down the slides and having Harley chase her around!

~

Here I am trying to play with her~key word trying! My belly is so big!

Here's dad being the best sport and taking her down the slide as much as she wants! She knows how to do it herself but it's always so much more fun when you have a playing partner!



What a big girl!

Bad night..one of many to come I'm sure

So last night I struggled terribly in the kitchen. I was making blts for dinner~one of my favorites~and was a mess the entire time. I burnt the first batch of bacon to a fine crisp, burnt the egg I was putting on these particular blts, then as I was making Avery an english muffin with butter and jam I broke the top of the glass jar clean off with a butter knife...don't ask. Finally Harley comes over to me and tells me to get out of the kitchen and that I'm outa control!lol
.
.
Okay. I knew He was right but what the heck?! Why am I so outa control? I sooo do not feel like myself!! I am so excited to have another baby but, I will admit, I DO NOT carry babies well at all. I can barely breathe. People have already asked me if I'm having twins~TWINS~and I'm only 6months along! People asked me the same thing with my pregnancy with Avery but it never bothered me. I was just elated to be pregnant at all that who cared what my body looked like or had to go through~I was finally having a baby! Now I can barely walk because I'm already so big and can barely breathe with my asthma. My skin is bad, I have dimples in my thighs that I never thought possible!lol My hair is falling out and I'm trying to grow out the blonde from last year! Oh, plus I fried a strip of the front with the blow dryer because it's so brittle.
.
.
I don't usually complain like this~to other people anyway. Harley or my mother usually hear all the woes of my pregnancy. I just feel like the baby brain this time around has intensified maybe?...I like to joke about the hardships of pregnancy...usually. I'm not liking the changes with this one. I'm HUGE!lol
.
.
I am greatful for this new baby. I sometimes wonder why I was able to get pregnant so easily with this one when it couldn't be at a harder time for Harley and I. Harley tells me and truly believes that God only gives us hardships we can handle. I know he's right. I guess it's just hard when you're right in the middle of the storm.
.
.
I tell you what though, Harley and I both don't know what we ever did without our Miss Avery. I can't believe how wonderful and hard it's been having a child of our own. She has taught me so much about myself I'm sure I could never have figured out on my own.
.
.
The bad day is over and onto the next. I know it won't be the last so I really should just stop complaining!lol

Avery loves helping me cook. Sometimes it's
hard to keep her entertained
while I'm getting things ready but I soon discovered
homemade edible play dough!


In these pictures she is actually helping
me roll out homemade tortillas.


Right here she's showing us with her hands how
you roooollll!



Here she is with her homemade play dough.


I had to get her her own apron for Valentine's Day.
Isn't it cute!!! She loves it cuz it has Unicorns~or as she would say~
HORSEYS!
