zen bebe: Avery is one!

avery jane

Avery is 1! I cannot believe it (actually she will be 13 months tomorrow). She is a little firecracker so I wanted to start this blog to give people updates on our family AND to share info about zen bebe, my shop where I sell handmade bebe stuff. (more updates on that will come later.)

Here are some cool things she can do:

her first steps on mother's day

walk! she can take about 7-8 steps in a row, and she likes to walk backwards if she is holding on to your fingers. She just mastered sitting to standing without pulling up on anything today.

first walk across the room

annabelle and avery

talk! well, kind of! she says hi, yeah, uh-oh, and ba on a regular basis. She says ma-ma and da, but I am not sure she means it yet. sometimes ma-ma and da end up sounding like bop-bop.

climb! she wants to be on the highest point in the room. she would climb you and stand on your head if you let her. she can climb on and off the couch without falling on her head and she can pull herself up on her highchair (but not all the way in it yet!)

sign! she knows how to say more, food, eat, milk, please, all done, and help.

laugh! she has a huge belly laugh, especially if you are crawling after her or tickling her. she also has a fake laugh, if she hears other people laughing (even if they are on tv) she wants to join in.

peek-a-boo with Riley

play! she loves to play. she likes to figure out all of her toys and flip through books. her favorite game is peek-a-boo and she likes to play it with strangers in the grocery store line. she is quite the yogi too!
