'Tis The Season!

I know that Halloween just passed us and it isn't quite Thanksgiving yet but I'm already in the Christmas spirit...and in honor of the Christmas spirit, I decorated the apartment last week. It was hard taking the Halloween decorations down and seeing the empty hooks and nails on the wall. It felt like we had been robbed by the Halloween Grinch...and since the Rockefeller Christmas tree had arrived at NYC that day, I figure what more could officially kick off the Christmas decorating season!? So Avery and I decorated the apartment. I think it was more fun for me than her.











Our new tree topper. I broke ours last year :o/




Little Miss Avery is doing well also. She's in that stage where she rolls everywhere. She's also started eating "solid foods." Her first taste of something new was peaches. She liked them but I think she got more ON her than IN her. She's understanding how to eat and swallow though. She had squash last night and hardly anything got on her.





She's also starting to develop different sounds with her voice and seems to enjoy her "spoiled princess scream" the best. It's a high pitched scream. Something you might expect from a 2 year old girl when her mom refuses to buy her the candy bar she wants at the grocery store. Here's a video of it!

Happy Halloween!!

This Halloween was Avery's first and we had so much fun taking pictures of her in her pink "funny bunny" costume! We didn't take her trick-or-treating but we had a great time anyway. I also got some fall pictures of Avery. Aunt Randi bought her an adorable sweater and a pair of jeans and it made the perfect fall outfit.
