Avery at 12 Months!!

Can you believe a year has come and gone??  I know I can't!  It doesn't seem like it has been that long, but at the same time, I hardly remember our family without her!  She has brought us so much joy, many laughs, and lots of snuggles.  We are so blessed that God has given us our Avery Bean!!

On the day she was born...

who would have known she'd be so stinkin' cute and full of curiosity?

She's always got a smile ready for the camera!

She found her birthday present.  She thought walking on it was a good idea...

This was one gift she got to play with on her birthday.  Her other gifts can wait for her party on Saturday!!

What is Avery up to??
