Gap Casting Call!

9 months 2 weeks 2days....

is how old Avery was when she took TWO STEPS by herself! She did it TWICE!!! She just now did it at my parents house! I can't believe how fast she is growing up. Slow down baby girl, you're growing up too fast.

We have a tooth AND a stander!!!

I can feel the tooth it juuuust broke the surface. She was throwing a fit tonight and I got a good look at it while she was screaming at me. (I swear, the attitude is from her father. Teeheehee.) I can see where her gum is split and the tooth is poking through.

Yesterday and today she's been standing on her own when you put her down on the floor until she goes to take a step. She still face plants (I catch her, shut up) when she moves either foot but could stand still all day long. She's almost to getting up on her own without pulling up on anything. She gets up to one knee and just cant get that other foot under her. She's already pulling up on absolutely everything and crawling all over the place.

How in the heck did this happen? I swear 2-3 weeks ago she wasn't even crawling.

She's growing up too fast. ::tear::

Guess what my baby can do.

Avery can stand for seven, SEVEN seconds all by herself. I know this because I timed her. She did it twice. At seven seconds I started clapping and saying "YAY!" which she also started doing and got her balance all off kilter. My bad. After the miraculous event she was standing at her activity table and turned around to look at me and TOOK A STEP FORWARD and face planted. It's the thought that counts right?

My child is a genius. She's going to be like Einstein only toothless. I don't know why those teeth continue to hide out just below the surface. They taunt us.

You are my I love you!

This is what I thought while we were at the park this afternoon. I don't think I will ever EVER love anyone as much as I love little miss Avery Grace. I don't just mean I love you and there are rainbows and butterflies and everything is perfect. I mean I FREAKING LOVE YOU AND I'M GOING TO KISS YOU UNTIL YOUR CHEEKS FALL OFF! Can your cheeks actually fall off from getting kissed too much? I highly doubt this since Avery is at about 800 BILLION and her cheeks are still very much intact.
