My Avery is Adorable

I just wanted to put a few recent pictures of Avery on here. She is getting so big and we think she is just so cute. She is so fun and we love her so much!

To bad she isn't smiling in this picture... (I guess it kind of looks like a smile, but it's not) she was getting mad at me for trying to take a cute picture of her and trying to get her to smile at the camera.
Avery just hanging out on the couch with dad watching him play xbox
We can't get rid of those binkys... just kidding she only gets them at nap and bed time and it was almost bed time in this picture... and of course she always has to have 2 binkys.
She likes corn on the cob and she actually does pretty well eating it too. I just thought that this was such a cute picture with her and that huge cob of corn :)

I love my job

I guess I wouldn't say I absolutely love my job and I want to have it for the rest of my life but for me right now in my life it is perfect. I work for a lady here in Rexburg and I clean her house, help take care of her 94 year old mom, and help her with her in home business. It is perfect becasue she also lets me bring Avery to work with me which is wonderful. Well this post is about her in home business. She preseves floral bouquets. I have worked for her for 2 years and I have always helped her dry the flowers and prep them for her to build the bouquet or floral arrangement, but recently she has been teaching me how to build them and has let me do quite a few. She says that I do a really good job (maybe it's becasue I have had a little bit of practice messing with flowers helping my mom with her wedding business and I have watched my big sis Summer). Here are a few of them that she has had me put together. This is my most recent floral arrangement I have put together. These were funeral flowers for someone. it's not put all together in the dome yet, but I think that it looks pretty darn good. :)

I love these type of flower wall hanging things that she does. I made this one that she also displays in her home.
This one is the first bouquet I did just for her to display in her house. It's not my favorite, but it is ok and it was my first one.

Babysitting


A couple weeks ago we got to babysit a couple different times for a couple different friends. Avery and I had lots of fun. This is our neighbors little girl, Ava. Avery was so good with her. She is going to be such a good big sister!

My sweet girl is getting so big!
We let Ava play with Avery's toy she had when she was little. Avery liked to play with it with her and make it sing for her.
Avery and Ava played together in the crib.
Such a good helper giving Ava her binki
Avery got a tent to play and hide in. This a just a cute picture I thought I would add in.
We also got to babysit, Tyler. He is just a little older then Avery. Avery and Tyler had fun playing in her kitchen together.

Another New Car

For those of you who may be thinking... wow they buy and sell cars quite often... it is true. This is our fourth vehicle we have purchased in less than three years. I have to say Brett gets it from his dad who also does this quite frequently :). The cars Brett always finds to buy are good cars but then he just wants something new, but he said that we will have these ones for a quite a while now. We still have our first car we purchased together, the Jetta, but were sad to sell the truck. We loved the truck but everything about it was just too expensive and now with another child on the way we have a better family vehicle. Check out our new Jeep! We really like it!

Family

I am making and selling these cute "family" blocks. These are the only ones I have made up so far but I am going to start making more. I am selling them for $25.00. Let me know if you are interested. They are an inch thick and the tallest letter stands about 7 1/2 inches tall.

I am hopefully going to start making and selling these darling little girl skirts too. We will see how much time I have for those though :)
