We’ve been anxiously awaiting Avery’s first word. Today, she said “ma” and then “mama” and “mom”. She did it over and over again because I kept reinforcing it. Daddy is very proud but wishes it was da-da The speech pathologist in me is super excited about her ability to imitate. Though she wasn’t saying the [...]

Avery turns 7 months old today! This morning we put her in bed with us to play and she gets so excited to see us. Her little squeals just make me so happy. She does this new thing which she started at the beginning of the week and I think it is the funniest and [...]

I learned how to crawl and love going after phones, computers, and remotes. I’m sitting up now really well without the support of my hands. Oh, did I mention I found my tongue? It’s so cool. I love to stick it out when I smile and even when I’m not smiling. I also like making [...]

Dear Sweet Pea, Mommy and Daddy love you so very much! From the moment we found out that you were coming, we were so unbelievably overjoyed and excited. We counted every day that went by waiting and waiting until the day we finally got to meet you. It seemed like forever because we were so [...]

One of the biggest joys of working from home is that I can see Scott and Avery whenever I want. I’m so grateful that I have this opportunity. If Avery is learning a new trick, Dee calls me from upstairs and I run up to see! This morning, Avery was crawling around chasing a toy [...]
