Friday Faces Part One...Part Two to come later!!

Update...a date, a cold, and bring on the Christmas Cheer!!

Hello All!

Everything here is so very good!! Avery has a touch of a cold, a runny nose, running like a faucet Saturday & Sunday, not too bad today, but you can tell she doesn't feel up to par. She doesn't have a fever but I am monitoring her closely. Haven't called the doctor yet, wait and see for tomorrow, she acts fine, just quiet.

Gary & I had a date Saturday afternoon without Avery. We started our Christmas shopping, and went out to lunch. Grandma & Grandpa Scofield babysat at their house for a couple hours. Gary and I had a good time, first alone time in 4 months. We had fun picking things out for Avery and our nephews. Grandma, and Grandpa and Uncle Johnny had a ton of fun with Avery!!!

I can't wait to start decorating the house for Christmas...CANNOT WAIT!! But gotta get through the next 2 days of work then I have 5 days off to decorate and shop etc.-YAY!!

Avery continues to thrive and makes all sorts of progress everyday. Her new words are; cool, what!, red, star. Sometimes please,  and sometimes thank you. She can now jump a little, and just about take off on a run. She has the biggest and best smile you have ever seen-just lights up our whole world!!

I took her to rehearsal last week, and introduced her to her 25 "big sisters". She was great. She walked around the studio to them, and laughed with them, and sat next to some of them, and talked, they all loved her!! She's quite the charmer!!

Her hair is getting so long, not long enough yet for pookie tails, but getting there.

We are having Thanksgiving with Gary's side of the family, as my side is going to Indiana. We had Thanksgiving dinner with them yesterday.

I think it will be a Dora Christmas at our house this year. We got Avery some Dora pj's while we were out and put them on her last night for bed-she was thrilled!! Dora and Avery are best friends!! We love Dora here, and do the "We did it" dance at least 4 times a day here.

My updates are short due to I am in costume season at the  studio, and very busy with that right now. Can't wait until that's over-it's stressful and time consuming. Need to start choreography soon, and still need to figure out when I will be able to fit that in-TRICKY!! :)

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. Gary and I have A LOT to be thankful for this year!!

Friday Faces!

Our Saturday...

This is the first time Avery's really spent some time in the backyard. She had fun picking, and throwing the leaves up in the air, and chasing our cat Jesebelle. What a beautiful day today. A ladybug kept flying and landing on me and Avery while we were out there-SWEET!!
