Avery had her first lunch date with her buddy from Arkansas! Malachi came all that way just to play with her...plus his dad was preaching a Gosple Meeting at our church! They were so cute sharing their food and toys with each other and since they are both walking now they enjoyed following one another around the house. Obviously in this picture they are both chewing instead of smiling but aren't they precious! It was so great to see them and we miss them already!

Avery showing Malachi around the house...they loved beating on the front door!

Our first trip to the park! Poor Avery has been deprived of the park during her first 14 months of life! It takes a friend like Hollee to show me the way! We all had such a good time! The kids played 'til their faces were beat red!


She absolutely loved to swing and the higher the better!

Back at home, after the guests had gone, we spent alot of time in the yard. She loves to pick things up and study them! And lucky for me she usually doesn't put stuff in her mouth though she did sample a mum bloom...oops! I got most of it out by her doing that tongue thing she does!
