Avery 7 Months

Happy 7 Month Birthday Avery!!




Truth be told, I will be glad next year when I am not documenting every month she passes a "birthday." I think it makes it go by so much faster this way. Maybe it just goes by fast anyway. Slow down, time!!

Avery Grace is:

Eating 3 meals a day with rice or oatmeal and lost of different kinds of fruits and veggies. She is slowing down on bottles and eating more regular food. Next month starts meats!! She is learning how to put puffs in her mouth, also!

She loves to stand up. All. The. Time. We are trying to teach her how to crawl but she would much rather be standing up. We don't have to hold her up, we just have to help her keep balance. She is also starting to lift her knee up, as if to take a step.

She has 5 teeth, 4 on the bottom and 1 on top. And she clicks them together alot now. Shudder.

She is getting more hair these days!

She loves to put EVERYTHING in her mouth!

She loves the dogs!
She sleeps 8 - 10 hours a night, uninterupted.

She is wearing 9 - 12 month clothes, depending on the brand.

She is still in size 3 diapers.

She loves to be thrown around, bounced around or swung around. Especially by her daddy.

She loves to laugh!

She loves to talk. It's starting to change from "ba ga da" to sounding more like she is trying to talk to us. Before, she was just babbling. Now, she looks in your eyes and talks to you. It's so fun to listen to!
She loves to blow bubbles!

She takes her pacifier, but mostly just to sleep. If I put it in any other time, she just takes it out and chews on it. At least it won't be hard to get rid of!

She loves to YELL!! We are working on that yelling business, not that I can control it much.

She loves to kick, still loves her bath because she can kick the water, and loves to swim, because she can kick. She also loves her new jump-up because she can bounce and bounce and bounce!

I love you baby girl - you can stop growing for a while, if you want to. :-)

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this!  I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

Just a little bathroom project....

Raise your hand if this is what your bathroom looks like after every round of baths at your house????
