avery's doctor's appointments.

last thursday, we took avery to her pediatrician's office for the first visit {our pedi doesn't make visits to the hospital i delivered at since it's in the medical center and his office is in clear lake}. at that visit, she weighed 6lb 6oz - she had lost 8oz since birth.
yesterday, i took avery in for a one week check-up and so she could get the newborn screening required by the state. little miss now weighs 7lb 4oz!!!! apparently she is trying to play catch up with her big brother who came into this world at 9.5 lbs :) silly girl!!
she is doing so well and is so easy going so far!! we are incredibly lucky and are having a blast hanging out as a family at home!!
i will post more pics as soon as i have a chance to get them off of my camera...

videos.

we have been taking quite a few videos so i decided to put them all in one post :)

christmas.

we had an amazing christmas at home with family & our munchkins.  everyone was so helpful and brought everything we needed to have christmas dinner so that brian & i didn’t have to worry about anything.  cc, nanny, vanpa, and uncle james spent christmas eve night here so that they could watch evan open his santa pressies.  it was a full house but very fun for evan to have everyone here!!!   on christmas morning, avery got brian and i up around 715 and everyone else seemed to stir about then but we ended up having to wake evan up at 830!!!  crazy kid!!  evan opened santa presents, we ate breakfast, and then we opened family presents.  evan had a hard time opening present since he wanted to play with everything after it was opened.  he ended up having to take a break in present opening to eat lunch and take a nap before finishing later when barbie, mike, marcie, kelcie, ashley, and mike got to our house – spoiled much!!  dinner was great followed by more present opening and then football watching/game playing.  a full day for sure but super fun!!!

thank you to our family for such a great christmas!!! we missed the family we weren’t able to travel to see this year but hope to see you all soon & love you!!!
