Our Monday Madness update...


A quick update as I am calling, and emailing, and returning calls for dance registration this morning. I am about a week behind, or more on calling people back, but that's just how it is these days people will just have to understand...

Avery is great and continues to amaze us each and every day. We had another big and fun week & weekend. 

I had to finish up 2 dance camps this last week, and Avery stayed for about 2 1/2 hours with Grandma Judy and Grandma Margaret while Mommy did that. She had a grand time with the Grandmas!! They are going to watch her during that 90 minutes in the Fall between when I go to work and when Gary gets home from work. Thanks goodness for the Grandmas!!!

The week went fast and I only worked Tuesday-Thursday. I can tell I haven't been in the studio in 4 weeks-ouch!

On Saturday we went to the Great New York State Fair!! We are going this weekend with my family-a Scofield tradition!! But we wanted to go as a family-just the 3 of us first!! We got their at 10:15 AM, an left at 4:15. Avery did great!! There's so much to look at and take in, she enjoyed every moment of it. She took a 75 minute nap in her stroller in the coliseum. There will be 10 of us this weekend when we go.

On Sunday we went to church for the first time since we've been back. It was so nice, they had an outdoor service at one of the members camp, "Camelot". It was a beautiful day, and a nice introduction for Avery to the people of the church. She did pretty good for her age. A lot of cheerios and juice-lol :) We had a dinner afterwards, and went for a walk to see the big goldfish pond, Avery fell asleep on the way there, but it was fun!


Avery goes to daddy left and right now, no problems. Daddy is loving it, and especially in the morning when she cuddles with us in bed until Daddy has to get up to go to work. She cuddles with Daddy, and it's great!!

Avery can say, "Hi" now, and our one cats name is "Koko", and she can now say that also! Along with Mama and Dada/Baba. Sometimes we hear "yes". 


She can also now with her toys put the circle block in the circle hole, and the square block in the square hole. She gets a little mad with the square though, that Hunan grunt come out-lol! She just started this last night-we are very proud!

She can bock like a chicken, and quack like duck. We saw a bunch at the fair and she was talking up a storm to all of the animals.

She is walking up a storm too, all over the place!! Can walk all over the livingroom on her own. Loves to sit on the bottom step of the stairs-she thinks she is a pretty big girl when she does that!

She sleeps through the night still, and absolutely loves her tubby at night. She dances up a storm whenever she hears music. We can't get over that!! She is definitely our child!!

She is a happy happy girl!! Not to say she doesn't have her moments as we all do-but what a joy she is, and life is so different and fun, and each day holds so many surprises!!

Mommy is doing better. I still want to hold her all the time when we are in public or social events. I like her with Mommy or Daddy or the Grandparents, not ready to hand her all over the place yet-that will take awhile!! I've waited so long to be a Mom, that I'm being very very selfish-oh well!

We are going to celebrate her 1st B-day this Sunday on the 5th of September. My Brother and is family will be here this weekend and our nephews start school on the 6th so we are going to get it done before all the craziness starts. I turn 37 on the 6th (Labor Day). Can't wait to decorate, and have balloons-CAN'T WAIT!!!


Avery & Mommy now have 2 weeks together before I have to go back to work for Fall lessons-gonna plan a lot and have a lot of fun!

I guess that's our update for now. Life is good-that's all-OH SO GOOD!!!
