Easter was fun for Drew he LOVES to hide and find the eggs. He was excited about the Easter bunny, I tried to down play that a bit since it is kind of stretch. I told him that I helped him out because he is only a bunny. He wanted a kite so one day when he was asking for one I told him I would give the Easter bunny a tip. Later that week he said, "mom don't forget to give the Easter bunny a point about my kite!" I took me a second to figure that one out. He was pretty pumped about his Buzz kite and movie Astro Boy that he has watched 1000 times since easter. Avery just wanted to put the eggs and her new shoes in her mouth. I was most excited for her to wear her new dress on Sunday, it is fun to dress a girl even if she pulls out her bow and sucks on her shoes.
Avery turned 9 months on April 9th! She went to the doctor and weighed in at 14 lbs and only 26 inches. She hasn't grown much since her last appointment at 6 months but she has changed a lot. She is crawling all over the place, she does not like to be left alone in a room so she will crawl around till she finds someone. Her favorite place to play is in Drew's room. She can stand herself up on everything, then she lets go and stands there till she falls. Last Saturday she even took a few steps. She is starting to get a little stranger anxiety and gets excited when she sees me, Dean, or Drew. She also does a little fake cry when she doesn't get what she wants, which is not very often because we spoil her. She probably has dairy allergy she has not had good luck with formula, cheese, stuff made with milk, or eggs. She is going to the allergist on Wednesday so we will see.
