Life Updates

Not much new going on in our lives, but I figured I needed to post more pictures of Avery, so here's a short life update to go with it...

Michael is doing well and working a lot, as usual, to keep us in our beautiful home.  He's been working on the yard and sprinkler system to try to keep the grass green.  We have 2 trouble spots, but otherwise it looks great!  He helped me with my flowerbed the other day.  :)  He's awesome like that.  He's going to training at the end of October in Vegas.  I might be able to go with him!!  We will see...

I worked a lot last week.  With a few of our regulars out of town on vacation, my boss needed me a little extra.  It's hard to believe I used to work 70+ hours/week.  I worked 25 at the jewelry store this last week and I still feel like I'm recovering, lol!  My projects are at a standstill for the moment.  I need some more paint to work on the fram decor for Avery's new room.  I need the dresser and paint to work on for her new room.  I need the chair to get started on reupholstering.  So for the most part I've just been trying to keep the house clean and the babies fed.  My life can be kind of boring at times, lol.

Avery took her first step the other day!!  She took one step before she realized what was happening and sat down, lol!  She did this 5 times!!  (So I know it wasn't a fluke)  She took one step for me yesterday, but that's all I could get out of her.  Today she's taken one step so far, but I'll keep working on more.  We practiced walking today with me only holding one of her hands instead of both.  She did REALLY well!  I think we both were surprised!

We're going to Iowa in less than a month!  I'm pumped!!  I look forward to this trip every year!  It's so much fun!  I look forward to having Avery there this year and introducing her to the extended family.  :)  I've already made plenty of lists of what we need to pack and bring.  I've even begun packing a few things!!  Can't wait!!

Ok, now for the part you've all been waiting for:

Pictures of Avery!!!!  :D

Enjoy!
