Avery update

Avery starting walking yesterday! She has been taking a few steps here and there over the last week and yesterday she let go and walked across the room, not even aware of what she was doing! She has also started to say "Anna" and "Noah" and it is so cute. I hope to get that on video but so far she won't do it with the camera rolling. Here's a little clip of her taking a few tiny steps...yea Avery!

Sweet SMILE!

Kristie took this great picture last night at Noah's end of season party in the park.

Avery's 1 Party!

We celebrated Avery's first birthday this weekend with a "1" party, and of course pink and green!

We got her a pink ice cream cake from Cold Stone but it was too cold and she wouldn't even hardly touch it! Pretty cute though watching her cry over a piece of cake on her tray!

Happy Birthday Avery!

Avery is ONE today!

We went to the aquarium and played in the water.

Beautiful Mexico!

We had an amazing weekend away in Cancun. It felt like a second honeymoon!

Congrats to Holly and Seth, what a beautiful place for a destination wedding. Thanks for letting us be a part of it!

Who's Gettin' Married?

After getting all dressed up in her princess dress, Anna decided that she wanted to marry Noah, and he was sweet enough to go along with it.

Here they are cutting the "cake"

Picnic at the Dam

on a pretty day before his last race we went to the dam with the Broadricks to have a picnic and to let the dads swim.

daddy got to practice his open water swim. anna and noah liked cheering him on.

playing in the yucky, dirty water in our clothes!

Anna and Noah with our friend Bo.

More Baseball

playing defense usually means avoid tackles from your teammates.

he really does love playing, look at that face.

a game 2 weeks ago, noah hit and then slid into first.

Almost One!

I can't believe that my littlest baby will be ONE in less than a week!

I LOVE her scrunched up face she makes.

The last two nights we've given her a cookie for dessert!

Noah's Fans

Noah had his Papa in town to see his game this last Saturday.

Anna loved riding on his shoulders!

and aunt holly braved the bad weather to see him play too!

My Girl

Anna's silly face

The night that the boys went to a Lookouts baseball game, Anna and I had a girl's nite after Avery was in bed. I painted her nails (she wanted her fingers pink and her toes purple!!!), and then we made popcorn and watched her baby movie. It was so much fun having one on one time together with my girl!

She wanted to rock her baby in the chair.

yes, she loves to make this face now whenever I want to take a picture of her...I can't say that I blame her!!!

Nana Time

our nana came for a visit and we loved every minute!

coloring with nana

how cute are they coloring in the same chair??

even sam wanted to say goodbye to daddy!
