Gotta Love the Shots!

6 Months
(Just love her!!!!)





Yesterday was Avery's 6 month check up in Sioux Falls! Just Avery and I attened this event this time! And what fun it was! Avery weighed in at 16.6 lbs (in the 50%), 26 inches long (in the 80%) and ha s a big head still! Doctor Z said she is doing great and looking great! Passed all her tests. Got 3 shots and some liquid in the mouth too! That was for sure her favorite part...the shots and the liquid.....or not she cried and cried. And I tried to be there for her holding her hands, but she did not care till I could pick her up. Then, the crying stopped! Love that little Princess! Did a little shopping while in the "big town" and come home. Last night, Avery spiked a fever at aboout midnight. Jake went to feed her and she was on fire with a temp. Gave her some Tylonal and love and she finally got some sleep, but not much. Then the fever was knocking on the door again this morning. Hoping this does not last through the night tonight.


Everything else is about the same. Preschool for Gabrielle, work for Jake and me being the "President of the house"

Avery is 6 Months Old!!!!



















Wow where does the time go! Our little girl is now 6 months old. (Her appt is coming up in a week so I will post her stats!) She is eating cereal (finally) and some foods, such as bananas, prunes, and apples! She is getting so close to crawling. She is a stunning little girl! Beautiful face, pretty blue eyes, and a prefect rolly polly body (as rolly polly as our kids get-which is not much!!!!)


Gabrielle is happy to be back in pre school after the Christmas break. She asked me everyday if today was the day to go back. she was person of the week at preschool this past week. Which meant she brought treats Tuesday and Thursday and got to write letters on the board!!! She thought it was great! All the kids are doing testing in school for things such as tracing, coloring, skipping and galloping!


Jake is working hard still! And i am home with the kiddos and doing photography still here and there!!!!
