Little Moments

The past two weeks have been so busy that I have had to really learn to appreciate the little moments with Avery because some days it felt as if we only had brief moments in the midst of our crazy busy schedules. 

Last weekend Josh took Avery with him to Kentucky so his mom and grandma could watch her so I could celebrate with Croucher at her bachelorette party.  *I got to mark an item off the bucket list - Drag Show (check). 

It was a long weekend without her, but was so happy the moment she got home and to see her smile and nuzzle my shoulder!  This week we finally switched her to the big girl seat and facing forward.  Yes, I know they recommend she stay backwards to age two, but I'm the mommy :).  She smiles all the time and talks to me much more now that she can see me....love these talks.



She also decided that she can open and shut doors by herself and finds pure joy in doing so.  Her new favorite word is dog dog.  It is repeated and said everytime we arrive home, sees a dog or hears one bark.  She also can entertain herself somewhat better now, this past week I walk in to her bedroom to see her rolling around on the floor laughing at herself.  All these little moments are so satisfying and grounding and reminds me once again of how lucky we are.
