Actually Avlynne is about 13 1/2 months at this point which is totally nuts for me to think about. I am convinced this has been the fastest year of my life. Sure some of the days have been REALLY long but before I know it a week has passed, then a month, then a year and now we are beginning to start celebrating 2nd things with Av, like the 2nd blooming of our spring daffodils, her 2nd Easter, visiting Daddy at Track practice for a 2nd season...crazy!
Here are a few pictures of her in a fun outfit that Ella's parents brought her from Germany wearing an adorable bow made by my dear friend Amy Hook with Hooked on Bows.
Yes, her outfit is slightly "Christmasy" but I figured it was fitting since I have seen more snow than sunshine this past week. Today Avlynne discovered a new "trick." She was having some no-clothes-on-time and discovered how to undo her diaper. As she nakedly and proudly toddled around the house carrying her diaper I decided I had to get a picture. Unfortunately I took too long getting the camera and the cuteness came to an end when she peed on the floor and then slipped and fell in it, poor thing. Maybe she will learn that keeping her diaper on is a good idea, if not, it might be time for me to invest in some duct tape (a trick I learned from my Brother-in-Law)!
Totally unbelievable that baby Avlynne is now big girl Avlynne! I feel like it was yesterday that we went to see you and meet her for the first time in the hospital. While we were there KJ recounted the event for Keith to warn him about the near future of baby ROss' birth. We also got to hear the song he made for Av, and oh the excitement of finally knowing her name! What a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures, Krista. Avlynne is so big - I have to see her in person soon! And I agree, it has felt much more like winter than spring lately.
ReplyDeleteI also agree that time is a crazy thing w/ a little one. The days are long but the years are short (as one mom recently said to me).
Love you three!
