January Snow

A Busy January

January brought us Avery's six month birthday, the introduction of solids, and sitting well unsupported. Solids have been quite enjoyable. She ate rice cereal and oatmeal well until we tried sweet potatoes, and what a hit they were! Oatmeal just isn't as delicious now. All her friends at the babysitter have been asking when they can share their food with Avery, so I know they'll be excited for her to be joining them at the table soon...until she starts stealing their snacks!

Christmas...A Month Late!

Avery's first Christmas was busy! She came down with a ear infection 3 days before Christmas, but we still managed five holiday gatherings and two church services in one week. She was a trooper, but by Christmas night we had some screaming. Christmas won't be quite as busy next year, although we will be chasing a toddler!
