Avery Sitting Up

Avery has learned to sit up by herself over the last week. She's

learning that it is lots of fun to play while sitting up.

Here is just a little sneak peak at what she

can do!

Tagged

You can never escape tagging can you? No matter the situation, someone will find a way to send chain letters out and have everyone participating. I am no exception and thus, am posting this per Courtney's request:

the RULES
1. link the person who tagged you.
2. post these rules.
3. tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours.
4. tag 3 fellow bloggers by linking them.

1. My laugh
2. I don't like to be by myself
3. If I don't have something for a recipe, oh well I leave it out.
4. I am terrified of stray dogs
5. I have trouble with my rights and lefts (I must have missed that day at school)
6. I can't have the open end of the pillowcase facing the inside of the bed, mine or Josh's.

Back to School

Well we are back! We had a very nice time in St. George and enjoyed being with Josh's family. It has been awhile since we updated our blog because we both have kept pretty busy. Here are some things that have been going on.

Josh started school. This is his first semester as a Master's student. He has already had to apply for internships for next summer. He has an interview next week (hopefully two and a third the following week). We are applying for internships in Dallas and Austin Texas. Our first choice is Dallas, but either would be great.

I have been busy taking care of Avery and getting our new place organized. It is all done now, I just have to decorate. I have also been cooking and baking a lot. I learned a lot of new recipes this summer from my Mother-in-law and Eleisha. Josh's cousin Emily and I have been getting together on Wednesday's to make bread too. We grind our own wheat and make yummy whole wheat bread. Avery enjoys playing with Emily's daughter Madeline (who is 6 months old) and learning new things from her.

Avery has been keeping busy being a baby; playing, eating, and sleeping. She rolled over for the first time on Sunday. She rolled from her back to her stomach and did it three times. It was fun to see her finally get all the way over and to see her face when she realized she did it.
Here are a few pictures!
