So Big!


Avery is 18 months old today! She is getting so big! We went to see Doctor Liddle this morning. Avery weighs 21 pounds (with all of her clothes on) and is 33 inches tall. She is in the 10th percentile for her weight, but she is gaining weight at the same rate as the average baby on the growth chart. She is in the 90th percentile for her height, which is where she has always been, she is growing along with the curve for height as well on the growth chart. She is a happy, healthy baby!


Avery had her first flu shot today. I held her hands as the nurse gave her the shot. Avery looked up at me and said, "Owie!' and whimpered a little bit and then she was just fine. She has been such a good girl today!


My little girl is growing up so fast. I remember the day she was born and holding her in my arms for the first time. It seems like it was yesterday and now she is 18 months old. I am so thankful that I am her mother. She has brought so much joy to my life, I don't know what I would do without her. I love you Avery!
