Avery & Shane November '12

 

Shane: 
Talking now!  His vocabulary is expanding, although he is quiet :)
Bye
Hi
Momma
Dadda
Ball
Out

And he points at everything and says, "da". He is so happy all.the.time.  He has dropped his afternoon nap and only takes 1 nap now.  He eats very well.  I fear for his teenage years.  I am sure he is going to eat us out of house and home.  And I dont know if it's because I didn't pray for him to be outgoing (like I did with Avery), or if it's because his birthday is so close to mine and it's a Cancer thing...BUT he reminds me of myself a lot.  He is very independent and is VERY particular with his affection.  He seriously could not be any more perfect!  Such an angel.  That is how I describe him to everyone.  An angel sent straight from heaven.

Avery: 
She is so bossy and sassy.  I know where she gets it from.  No matter how rough she can be with Shane, she is such an amazing big sister.  She protects him, and helps him.  I LOVE that they play together so well :)  Avery will be 3 on Saturday.  I would say I cannot believe she is going to be 3, but I actually can.  She is so verbal and tall.  She is 3 going on 13.

Me:
I have been very sentimental this week as Avery was born on the Tuesday of Thanksgiving week and came home on Thanksgiving Day.  We had no idea on Thanksgiving Day 3 years ago that we were going to have such a sassy, outgoing, bossy, sweet, talkative, mini me.  We are so blessed. 
Other than that, I have been going to the gym almost every day (and loving it).  Our new house is awesome and I cannot wait to decorate for Christmas!!!!!
