Beginning of November




October Wrap Up

Our little miracle!

South Carolina State Museum Columbia, SC




Little Miss Chicken Pox







The Cutest Pumpkin in the Patch

Taking tummy time a little too far!

I'm proving to be a horrible blogger! By the time I get home, play with Avery, cook dinner, give Avery her bath, put Avery to bed...ahhh...not enough hours in the day! After being back at work for three weeks, I came down with Shingles on my face! It was painful at times but not painful enough to miss work. As careful as I tried to be...Avery came down with Chicken Pox. We both missed a few days of work staying home with her but we concluded that having Chicken Pox at 3 months old wasn't all that bad...Avery doesn't know how to scratch yet and they really didn't seem to bother her at all. Now we're just waiting for the scabs to clear up.
Here are a few of the hundreds of pictures we take.

Just Some More Pictures...

Don't Step Backwards!
Asleep after a long day at Charleston!





Game Night in Davie County!



Twilight Walk On The Beach




Giggles For Grandma





90th Percentile! And Other Stuff...
















Wow, we are behind in our posts! Hopefully, this will update all of you with some random happenings and pictures.

Avery had her two month checkup, and was extremely healthy, hale and hearty. She is really striving to fit in with her parents, as she was at that point in the 90th percentile for weight at a hefty 12 pounds. :) We think she might have doubled that by now. ;) She had her shots, and took them in stride.

Renee is back at work, building a better America by teaching the youth of today. Avery loves Ms. Teresa, her babysitter, but is still always happy to see Mom and Dad at the end of the day.

Avery also had a beach weekend at our favorite city, Charleston. She loved the water and the the sand, and was all smiles the whole time!
Grandma McKerrow came to visit for a week, and we all had a great time. Avery loved her too, and Grandma thought that Avery was her custest, bestest, smartest and adorablest grandbaby ever, or at least until the next grandbaby arrives. And of course, those are my words, not hers, and she feels that way about each of her grandbabies.

Not much exciting is going on, just the quiet joys of daily life and watching a baby grow. Enjoy the pictures!

Eight Weeks Old!

September 10, 2009






Tummy time is made a little easier if you stick your tongue out.

She's Growing!

Photo taken in our hotel room in St. Louis.
Same outfit...looks a little different.

I decided after I put this on her that this was truly the last time I'd make her squeeze into those "premie" shorts and the "newborn" onesie.



Another walk at University Lake...this time Avery slept the whole time.


Multitasking Daddy


Labor Day

Avery looking cute in her outfit from Uncle Justin and Auntie Jill.
Shawn and I spent the morning cleaning the house and then in the afternoon we went to Concord Mills mall where we met Christina, Phoenix, Karra, and Hannah. For some reason Phoenix loves hanging out in Avery's stroller.

They came back to the house later and Matt joined us for supper...tacos.

Christina and Avery.
