Seriously right after I posted my last post the baby started crying. I guess I should just never say that she is a good baby. However, this kid thinks he is a comedian. Funny thing is he cracks us up! What is he doing...a Manwich commercial??

A long post

It has been so long since my last post and so much has happened. This is going to be a long one, so "buckle up".
We love to go to the pool. Avery doesn't love it so much yet but she will soon. She looks super cute in her swimming suit.
Harrison loves to brush his teeth by himself, which takes sooooo long. He's also two so he doesn't do the greatest job. Mommy takes a turn and then Harrison takes a turn....we end up being in the bathroom for a while.

Wrestling with grandpa.
The new funny face!
Avery is growing like a weed.
She was blessed on June 20th. Nick did such a great job, and she looked beautiful! It was a wonderful day. Thanks to everyone who helped and a special thanks to my aunts and mom who basically made her whole outfit.

The headband was made by my Tia Zulay, the crochet dress and shoes (which you can't see) were made by my Tia Mirella, the skirt was made by my mom and Tia Mary. They are all talented ladies!
Avery has been quite a handful the last few weeks. She sleeps great at night, but during the day she doesn't really sleep much and she mostly cries. Nick and I joked before the blessing that he needed to bless her to be quiet and sweet so people would want to be around her. She had been driving us crazy with all the crying. I was so worried she'd be one of those babies that just screams during the whole blessing, but she was so quiet. Since the blessing she's been much better......who knows.

Today Avery is one month old! I can't believe it. She is growing like a weed, and chunking up quite nicely. It is also Nick's birthday today. Happy birthday babe! 29 and you are still a hottie! I love you! However, I am dedicating this post to my little Harrison. We started potty training last Wednesday. We have taken the cold turkey approach...."the garbage man took your diapers, so only underwear". Today this kiddo did not have one single accident. He kept his Cookie Monster underwear dry all day! Not only did he keep them dry but we pretty much were out and about all day. We went to the dinosaur park, to McDonald's, and out to dinner for dad's birthday. Good job buddy, I am so proud of you!

Here's hoping we have the same luck tomorrow! I hope I haven't jinxed it.
