Avery's Artwork

I was amazed last week when I picked up Avery from daycare and there were paints out on the cabinet in the nursery. Come to find out they did a little handprint painting that day. I was so excited to see what she had done and anticipated the day we will have a fridge filled with Avery's Artwork. It amazes me and makes me very happy to know that they are stimulating her brain during the day and she is not just laying in her crib or sleeping in a swing. I know that this is just the first of many posts to come displaying our little munchkins talents and I am oh so happy to share with you her first art project. Good job Baby girl!

Rollin...Rollin...Rollin

Avery is officially rolling over! Last week she rolled from her back to her stomach for the first time and we were so excited. Now, everytime we lay her down she rolls onto her stomach. Great news, right? Well, there is one little problem with this accomplishment, she does not know how to roll back. Sunday night, she woke up at least 4 times because she rolled onto her stomach and could not roll back. So, up I am, out of bed and into her room to roll her onto her back or side. When I finally get back to bed and fall good asleep, there she goes again. Little munchkin....hopefully she will learn soon how to roll back, but that means the days of leaving her unattended on the bed or anywhere are O-V-E-R. She is growing up fast, before we know it, she will be crawling.

Counting ZZZZ's

Avery is officially sleeping through the night! Woohoo! I hope by writing this post it does not jinx us. She has successfully slept from 9:30pm until 5:30/6:00am or later - since a couple of mornings I have had to wake her up, every night this week. I guess that explains why she does not get a good hour or more nap during the day. She usually takes about 3 or 4 cat naps at daycare. I will let you all know if things change but as of right now we have a good little sleeper.

Have fun at the A&M game Daddy!

On Saturday, Zach went to Dallas to the Texas Stadium to watch the A&M game, while I stayed in San Antonio for Mary's Bachelorette Party. Mom came to our house to have a slumber party with Avery. She loves her Nan and just smiles when Nana talks to her. I just love it! Well, the morning of all the festivities, Avery decides to wake up at 5:30 and play. Zach was getting ready to leave for Dallas, so we made the best of our early Saturday morning with our precious little girl! Here is a few pics of her wishing her Daddy off and good luck to the Ags....which had a terrible loss by the way (we do not want to talk about it)!

Mornings at The Inmans

Sometimes Avery is so sleepy in the mornings that she will not even wake up to get dressed for school.

Here is a glimpse of one of those mornings.

Getting her last bit of sleep in before Mommy wakes her.

Streching and still asleep...

Mom, 5 more minutes!

AHHH...stretch. I think I am ready to wake up now.
