A Birthday and A Wedding Later...

We celebrated Avery's actually birthday yesterday with a few gifts from mom, dad and Spencer and-you know already-a Dunkin Donuts breakfast! Avery was so excited that it was her birthday and later in the day we headed to a family wedding-which she thought was a celebration of her birthday:) I just hope she isn't expecting that grand of a celebration for every birthday!! I wish we could have capped off a great birthday celebration with an Irish victory, but I guess a USC defeat will have to wait until next year (or the next, or the next, etc...it seems we can never win!).

Spencer's gift...a new big sister shirt:)

I know this isn't recommended until the age of 3, but I couldn't wait to introduce her to the board game every child should have!

Trying to figure out just exactly how to get the steps down to do the electric slide...she came up with some of her own moves and had the absolute best time dancing!

Avery met a dancing buddy that was just her size-these two had a great time dancing together, twirling and chasing each other!

A quick pic of me and my little bro, Jake. He leaves for the Army in just under a month and I'm getting nervous to say goodbye...but so proud of him:)

In Spencer news...He is now officially a rolling machine! He first rolled over from his back to his front last Monday and ever since has been perfecting his new talent! He gets so excited at what he can do now and I'm wondering what I'm going to do with 2 kids on the move!

Yeah for Spencer~ watch out- he is going to be all over the place now!!! I bet that was such a thrill to see!

Looks like the wedding was fun- I just have one question- why wouldn't you throw a huge party like that for Avery every year?!? ;-)

Congrats to Spencer! He'll be scooting all over before you know it! I'm glad that you had fun at the wedding; not only is Avery going to expect a grand celebration, but she is also going to think that she gets to celebrate for 3 weeks : > Her bouncy party looked like so much fun; you are never too old to enjoy those! Love you guys!
