Climbing higher

Avery has finally discovered how to climb stairs! Within the last week she has learned to walk and climb stairs. I can't believe how big my baby is getting.

Stopping to take a breather! It was hard work climbing up that one stair.

She can walk!

Little miss Avery has decided to leave crawling behind her and start walking! She is only 10 months old and is on the move. Avery was so excited when we started clapping as she took her 9 steps. She couldn't help but clap at her self. She was so proud. She knew she was doing something we loved! When Bailey was 10 months old she also started walking. My boys started walking by their first birthday.

Sorry the pics are so bad. The lighting wasn't all that great apparently.


Avery has also been saying things a lot lately. Her favorite thing to say is, What's that? (as she points to what she is looking at) It's cute to hear her say it because she says it so softly.
I think I'm going to have another little talker who doesn't know how to stop talking!

Big Girl

Avery has mastered pulling herself up onto things!! Here we found her
standing up in her crib! She was so proud of herself.

Avery has been trying to climb stairs lately. I'm super sad about it!! I feel like she is growing up on me so fast. I look back on pictures of her when she was born and it's hard to believe she was ever that little. I miss my little baby!

Avery is now crawling around and keeps me very busy. I swear the second she is on the move she becomes a human vacuum. I find mostly legos in her mouth. I'm constantly telling the boys to keep them off of the floor, but who am I kidding? I've been really sad about her crawling. She is only 7 months old and I don't remember my other kids crawling so soon. I want her to slow down and stay a baby forever! I think I feel this way because I know she is our last little one. I know I will miss having a baby in the house. I can see why some people have 8 kids.

Avery's first hair cut

Before

Avery needed a hair cut really bad. I swear she was born with a wig! She was 5 months old when I finally decided to cut it.

She did so good sitting in her bumbo.
After


It looks like she has a bob!
