Happy Valentine's Day!

Johnny and I had a romantic Valentine's dinner at The Pasta House with Avery covered in broccoli and pasta! Ha! My how things have changed! No, but really, we enjoyed spending time with our little Valentine!


Avery & I had a special delivery while we hung out at home today! Johnny had flowers sent to us with a bear for her and candy for me! Thanks to my sweet hubby! You're the best!


He came home to chocolate covered strawberries that we made for him!




This is my favorite...I LOVE that grin!!!


Happy Heart Day from our little love bug!!!

Diaper Dash

So we were at Babies R Us buying a shower gift and one of the employees came up to us to ask if we wanted to enter our baby in a Diaper Dash contest they were having. Basically it was a contest in which the babies had to crawl to the finish line. There were 4 rounds and whomever won each round won a $10 gift card to the store and then all of the winners competed to win 3 months of free diapers! We thought it would be fun (and who couldn't use free diapers?) so we signed Avery up. She was up against an 11 month old boy for the first race. We thought for sure he would win, considering he could walk and the fact that Avery has only been crawling for a few weeks. The girl said "GO!" and Avery took off towards me without hesitation and the boy just sat there! Johnny was so proud that she beat a boy! She lost in the final race, there was actually another Avery there and she kept looking at her family instead of me. I think she was confused as to why these strangers knew her name! It was all in good fun and it worked out for us winning the gift card because we also bought her big girl car seats while we were there. Her Uncle George says she's a natural athlete! Ha Ha! I wish I had my camera with me! Our girl made us proud!
