Avery's Artwork - A Heart Person!

Morning Cuddles

They all cuddled around Ave this morning...quite the motley bunch, no?

Cute Aveism

"Need lolly with ice cream" to refer to a dilly bar.

Did You Know that Avery is Best in the World?

About 2 1/2 years ago, Charlotte made up her own little song to a very young Avery (~six months old).



Now they have both got together for the "re-mix".

D-D-D-Dora!

 

 

 

 

Avery's First Day of Preschool

Ave started school today at Renfrew in Sundance. She is in a class with two, three and four years old with varying degrees of delays. She was the most cheerful kid there (IMO) but was dwindling after the mere hour we were there! Tomorrow begins the first full day of school where she will take a bus and be gone for three hours a day! (I bet she falls asleep in her dinner tomorrow night!)

I arrive...I look stellar!

Time to go through all these books...don't worry - none of those books will be left standing after I'm here.

Daddy needs my help with the flaps!

Now it's play-doh time! I just love the duck and butterfly stamps!

After 45 minutes, I'm exhausted. Time to power up with some AJ!

Really didn't want to commit to a picture with Mom and Dad...I had stuff to do (like cocoa-bonk Dad in the chin!).

I felt that the only way they would let me go was if I looked at the camera. I made my escape mere seconds later!

What? Me, tired? What gave it away? The sleepy eyes, the hair pulling, the comfy corner I found?

To Steal a Strawberry!

So say you're two and it's your first visit to the garden. It is at that time that you spy a strawberry on the vine and, given that it's one of your favorite fruits, you then attempt to nip one. Here's how you go about it...

1. Spy one.

2. Assess your chances.

3. Realize that just putting it in your mouth will save you from having to remove it from the vine.

4. Enjoy your first bite.

 

5. Go back at it again.

 

6. Enjoy your second bite.

7. Successfully retrieve the rest of the strawberry with that bite. Ensure you sit in the wet dirt to fully appreciate the moment.
