Look who's standing up all by herself!!
This girls of ours is EVERYWHERE! I could NOT get a single good picture of her the other day. She just turns around and crawls away from me faster than I can get my camera up to my face.
Mallory held her still for me for a bit for these pictures .. but I couldn't really get her to give me a big smile.
She is one busy girl. She reminds me a lot of Zach at this age. Getting into EVERYTHING and not being able to really let him out of my sight. We have to keep the bathroom door closed because Avery likes to crawl in there and unravel the toilet paper. She also loves to put her hand in the toilet if the lid is up. Awesome.
She's also at a stage where is likes to take everything out of drawers, laundry baskets, baskets, buckets, hall closets, bags, purses ... you get the idea. My house is a mess all the time, but Avery is happy.
She really is a happy girl all the time. She loves following her siblings around wherever they go. She is content to play in the kid's room with them, pulling things out of buckets and drawers while they play around her.
She is a great nap taker and sleeps pretty well at night, as long as she gets good naps during the day.
She has two new teeth on the bottom .. so now she is up to 8 in all. I love her toothy grin.
She can stand up by herself without holding on to anything now. She took a few steps by herself a week or so ago, but hasn't taken anymore since. She practically runs around the ottoman and can move quickly to and from the couch to the ottoman, so we are pretty sure she will be walking before her first birthday.
We can't believe how fast this year has gone by. It's crazy.
Speaking of crazy .. THIS little boy of ours is going to be 4 this month!! I can't believe that at all. He has grown up so much in the last year. We are going to celebrate his birthday at Disneyland the week after his birthday. Can't wait!
