Life Lately

Wow, it has been awhile since I last posted. Of course, I could give a million reasons as to why . . .

Since the last post Avery has  officially become a walker. She started taking steps at 14 months, but since it wasn't her quickest mode of transportation, she still chose to crawl. But soon after turning 15 months, she decided one day she was only going to walk and has not turned back since.

She is still all emotions. When we are out in social settings, she smiles and waves to all that pass, but when she is not getting her way, she has quit a temper. She only has two emotions - it is all or nothing with her (sounds like someone else I know). All smiles and laughs or all tears and screams.  I do love my little pistol and wouldn't change anything about her.

Madelyn continues to march to her own beat. She knows what she wants and will go at whatever measures to get it. She is shy when in new situations, but she can be outgoing and silly when around friends and family. She is a really great kid. I honestly could not ask for a more easy going, resilient three-year-old. Don't get me wrong, she definitely has her moments, but those are few and far between compared to her sister.

We spent the past weekend at Berry College visiting Uncle Mike. The campus is beautiful and the weather was amazing. Eric and I got up early to hike to the House of Dreams while Nana and Granddad watched the girls. It was a special day - the campus means a lot to us - it's where we got engaged, got married, worked and have spent countless hours outside.

All in all, we're loving this time of year!
