First Day of Second Grade!

 

 

My Precious Girl is already in the second grade.  Mrs. Loyd is her teacher.  I walked her to class on the first day and she would not give me a kiss, but she did give me a hug and whisper "I love you".  It goes so fast, but Avery is becoming even more lovely by the year. 

Things we did this summer

Stephen stayed home with Avery about 1/2 the summer while looking for a new job.  They went to the movies, went on bike rides, went to the watermark and just hung out at home.  Avery really loved being able to stay home part of the summer.

Here are some things that Avery likes now
- lots of tv
- gymnastics (although she starts tumbling next week)
- Justice (the clothing store)
-  having her friends over to play
- swimming

Ugh - Too Long

I can't believe it's been almost a year since I have written anything in this blog.  It has been a crazy year though.  Lauren is almost one year old and Avery is getting ready to start the second grade.  The school called today to tell me her teacher is Mrs. Loyd.   Over the past year, Avery has been a wonderful sister.   Very caring and adoring to Lauren.  Avery has also been very helpful to me.  I expected her to be jealous of Lauren since Avery had been an only child for almost 7 years, but she surprised me with being wonderful about it.  I would have understood jealousy, but it was a nice surprise.
