I simply cant believe that my little Avery will be turning 1 a week from tomorrow. It's so hard to believe that she has grown so much over the past "almost" year. She still isnt saying "mama" or "dada" descriminatly - although she shouts "dadadadadadada" all the time. I think she is on her way to her first word - and it's the same one as Brenden. "DOG" She really sounds like she says it - very cute! She is definitely pointing and starting to wave and is good at giving five. She has also been known to give a kiss when asked - she just hasn't learned that there shouldn't be any tongue involved until she's much much older - lol. She also has started to push things away (food and drinks primarily) when she doest want them - or she just throws. Geez it's good to be home with the 4 legged cleaning crews - makes my job much easier! She has her next infant and toddler eval the week after her birthday. I always try to keep in mind that she really is just 10 1/2 months adjusted for her preematurity. She has also learned how to go down the step from the kitchen to the family room - she backs her little tush up and gets right down. We know she knows how to do it, but her preffered method is to get to the edge and whine until someone picks her up.
While we are at the beach for a total of 15 days, she and Brenden got quite a tan and Avery got a second tooth! We still arent sure what to do about her birthday (next wednesday) - the timing is all crazy because she has her eye surgery next friday. What a great birthday present huh? They were going to schedule her surgery for this friday, but we opted to wait until after her very special day. More on the surgery later. Im finding it hard to concentrate with Brenden running around next to me playing with Tucker and Avery wanting to get out of her highchair.
