where to begin?

I have NO idea where to begin to recap the past 2 months. Last time I posted we were moving out of our condo. Now we're living in our house! We moved in this past weekend. Thanks to everyone who came out to help Brent move the furniture :) I did jack squat... well, I had the job of keeping Avery entertained.. not sure which job is more challenging ;) hehe. Avery is loving the extra room to roam around. She's still getting used to the fact we have more than 1 room in the downstairs.. I can't really turn a corner and be out of sight before she's calling out "momma!" to see where I've gone.

We did Christmas early with my side of the family while my sis and her fam were in town from North Dakota. We just did a few gifts for the kiddos... sooo fun! Avery LOVED my mom's Christmas tree and all the pretty ball ornaments. She quickly did some redecorating of the ornaments.

Avery loves to wear Brent's Patriot's ski cap:

Oh yeah, and did I mention this? :

June 18th, 2010... one day after Avery's birthday!

what a big help

** drive those legs! **

** watch where you're going! **

I don't know if we'd ever get moved out without Avery's help ;)

these are cool

learning how to use headphones.. next step: plugging them into music so they work!

staying busy

We're alive! Staying super busy packing and getting ready to move out... phew! But Avery always manages to make time to play:


And just for funsies here's a picture from a year ago today.. crazy how much she's grown up already!
