HAPPY #2!

Today, Avery is celebrating her 2nd birthday. I really can't believe she is already 2 years old. She starts preschool on Monday and it seems that time is just flying by. Besides the tantrums, I have enjoyed every minute of having her here and to see her grow from a newborn to the amazingly smart 2-year-old she is today. She puts full sentences together (example: she woke up to a birthday breakfast of donuts from Dunkin' and took a bite and exclaimed, "mmmm, munckins are good!"), runs and jumps and helps take care of her brother-yet, won't potty train ???!! Avery, you have been an amazing gift and we can't wait to see what your next year will bring!

Avery, just moments after being born on Wednesday, October 17th, 2007 at 12:15 pm. You weighed 6 lbs. and 9 oz. and were 19 inches long...

Your year between 1 and 2 saw many new things...
Transition to a big girl bed.

Your first black eye.

A reunion with Elizabeth O.-she liked you much more this time since you could walk!

Being able to play at the park all by yourself.

You discovered your love of ponies:)

And became a big sister, welcoming your brother into our family and never hesitating at how much you love him!

Your 1st year, you traveled many places and thank goodness we got a trip in this year! You got to see Niagara Falls, Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY DARLING DAUGHTER!

And let's not forget to root ND on today in a huge one-Go Irish, Beat Trojans!!
