P.E., Kids, and BEARS oh my!

I was teaching P.E. to a first grade class today when one of the students came in and told me that his teacher said to bring all the class down to their classroom because there was a surprise. When we got there we saw a baby bear. One of the boy's dad works at Bear World and he helps raise and take care of the baby bears so he brought one in to show to the class. It was so awesome. I actually held a real bear!!! He was so small and such a cute little thing. He had way long claws.

StYLiN'

Brett, Avery and I went on a walk the other weekend when it was warm outside. Doesn't she look so stylish. She didn't even try to take her sun glasses off. She liked wearing them. She is just such an adorable little girl. I love her so much!

More of Daddy and Avery

Here's just a funny picture of Brett and me. He wouldn't coperate and just take a normal picture. So we got this one and I thought it was funny. I love you Brett!

Just hanging out with Dad. Avery loves to be swung around and play peek-a-boo now. She is so funny. She always makes us laugh.

Toe Sucking Book Worm

Avery is so funny. She has found her toes and likes to suck on them. She sticks just about everything in her mouth. She is getting so fun and cute. Tonight it was so funny, I set one of my school papers on the love sac by her not thinking anything of it and i look at her a few seconds later and it was all crinkled, I had to pry it from her hands and she pretty much threw a tantrum. She was so mad at me for taking it from her so I quickly got her a different paper that didn't matter so much. I just thought it was so funny, in a way, how mad she got at me.Yummy Toes!
Avery loves her books especially that fish one. I try to read them to her but she just always grabs them from my hands and wants to hold them herself and put them in her mouth.
She is such a good little reader
She loves her books

Daddy's Girl

Avery is just about 5 months old now. And it is so fun! She is getting such a cute and fun little personality. She really loves to play with her dad, and take naps with him. We love our little girl! Doesn't she look so cute in her Daddy's baseball hat.

I love having Brett and Avery in my life! :) I am so lucky and so happy!

Nap Time

I came home from class today to get Avery so Brett could go to work and this is what I found. I thought that it was so cute. I guess they were both pretty comfortable. Avery likes laying in her dad's arms. Brett is such a good dad. I love seeing him play with Avery. He can always make her laugh. We love you Brett!

Weekend in Utah

Brett, Avery and I went to Utah last weekend. We had a fun time. First we stopped at my friend Tayli's in Logan. She hadn't seen Avery yet and we hadn't seen them for a while so it was fun to go and hang out with Tayli and Jake. Thanks for letting us stay with you!
Then we made our way to Salt Lake to see Melanie. She is doing so much better and got to go home on Tuesday.

Melanie is such a cutie. She used to be so much bigger than Avery and now Avery is the bigger one by about one pound.

Avery and Melanie are going to be such good friends

We got Melanie a little puppy and a balloon. I think that she liked the balloon better because it was so shiny.

I also saw spider man at primary children's hospital

What a cutie

Our last stop was in Provo for Brett's brother's baby boy's blessing. His name is Trevor Arthur Stephens. He was born on Feburary 17th so he is almost exactly four months younger than Avery. He is Avery's first cousin on Brett's side. He seemed so small compared to Avery when I held him, but Avery was once actually smaller than he is. She is growing so fast.

Avery is gonna be such a good big cousin

Yum Yum!

Avery is eating rice cereal now and she loves it. She is so funny. I don't know if she totally gets it yet. She tries to suck at the spoon when i bring it to her mouth rather than opening her mouth, but she is getting it more and more everytime. She likes to grab the spoon and help me bring it to her mouth. She is so cute. And of course she makes a big mess. I tried to load a video of her eating, but it wouldn't work so maybe I can try again another time.
