Hello...

...my name is Avery and I love to color...

...usually I color my hands and then I try to make hand stamps.

...and then my mom gets mad at me.

...but that's what my teachers do with me twice a week!

...so I'm confused. And apparently I'm not supposed to color on my arms and legs and face and lips and tongue either.

...being 2 is tough.

Fixin'

A tinkerer already...

She was trying to put Kendall's training wheels back on the bike

...or something like that.

Can your hair do this?

The bouffant is back.

Believe it.

Valentines Day

The girls before their Valentines day parties at school

Stuck...

...on the windowsill while mommy runs to get her camera to practice these sorts of shots.

Is there anything sweeter than a sleeping baby?

Especially when 2 hours earlier she was looking at me like this....

She's Five

She's a princess in her world.

Crafting and coloring are her passion.

She's got a heart of gold.

She treasures her friends.

Sometimes I worry that she'll get walked on by others because is so faithful, so accepting, so tender-hearted.

She's my cautious one. Quiet and always observing. Very much a follower.

She's an old soul. Look closely and you'll see it in her eyes.

My life was forever changed when she came into my life. She teaches me more than I could ever teach her. She's my baby...and she's five.
