Drinkin' some H2O

For those of you who remember drinking water straight out of the hose when you were a child, this is the updated version! Avery doesn't have any interest in drinking from the hose, but the water shooting out of her octopus sprinkler sure is cool and tasty on a hot August day!

BFF Isaac

Avery and Isaac are best buddies, and they love playing together. We had Isaac, his mom Tricia, and baby brother Luke over one nice day last week to play in the water and have a picnic lunch. We sure are going to miss them when we move to Michigan, guess we'll just have to visit!

A day at the park

Avery loves parks (especially if they have swings!), and today was perfect park weather. We packed a picnic lunch and headed to Silver Lake to enjoy the nice day. Avery does a very good job sitting on the blanket eating, and she LOVES her new backpack and lunch bag!

Bear gets a check-up

One afternoon Avery got a hold of John's stethoscope and decided to give her animals a check-up. She was very gentle with them, and baby bear and puppy received a clean bill of health!
