Avery is six months. Stats include 75% for head and weight (17 lbs 5 oz.) and 90% for height (26.75 in.). Mom is happy, because if my memory serves me right, this is lighter than Tate was at this point. Maybe my back will get a break with this baby =) She's practicing with solids, but thinks they're just for kicks. The only way she would eat yogurt, as pictured above, is with it smeared on her lips and she licks it off. Eric says she has a lizard tongue. She does like to play with it and can stick it out impressively far! At the moment she is quite the mama's girl, but finds dad and Tate entertaining, too.
Check out Tate's crocs!! I think he'll be able to put them on by himself soon. Plus, they're supposed to be odor resistant! I bought the real deal, so maybe Ave's can wear them, too (with some girly bling, of course). Anyway, here's the before picture. We'll see how they last through the summer!
Here's matchy-matchy mother/daughter. Thank you grandma Shirlene for making them! We wore these around Easter, but forgot the picture before church. Ave's had a bit of a blow-out at church that day so there's no picture. Hence today's picture. I just woke her up to go so she's a little dazed.Tate can recognize all but 5 upper-case letters of the alphabet. Tonight he "read" his first word. It was "no" in the book "No, David!" I tell you what, that book has new meaning now that we've got Tate around! Especially the nose-picking page, 'nuf said =)
We had another round with M&M's and our M&M math book this morning and Tate was doing much better than the other day as far as waiting to eat them, and do so one at a time. He is such a sweet little boy. He loves baths and wrestling. We introduced him to a puppet today. It was hilarious. He was squealing and scooting out of the room, through the hall, and into the laundry room, facing the puppet lion at all times. There was also throwing of shoes or whatever was handy at the puppet. He thought it was hilarious. The funniest part to me is that he seems to address it like it's a real being.
Looking forward to some sunny weather and the opening of pools this month!!!
