Avery Turns 1 Month









At the time of this post, she's technically 6.5 weeks and the pictures were taken at 5 weeks, but I figured it was close enough!  Avery is such a little joy!  Here's a little bit about our sweet girl up to this point:

  • Sleeps from about midnight to 7 (wakes up around 5, but goes back down with a binky)
  • Usually drinks about 6 ounces!  She's a serious porker
  • Size 1 diapers since around 5 weeks
  • 0-3 months clothing since about 5 weeks
  • Likes to snack.  She'll drink about two ounces then stop for a little while, then get really upset again until you feed her more
  • Started REALLY smiling around 5.5 weeks.  Smiles all the time now, especially for Daddy :)
  • Loves to stretch and lay on the floor, especially first thing in the morning after breaking free from her swaddle
  • Sleeps swaddled in her bouncer chair
  • Is a binky baby
  • The other day Ronnie was on the mountain for work so he called and I put the phone up to Avery.  As soon as she heard his voice, her whole face lit up and she started raising her eyebrows, smiling and cooing. Cutest thing ever :)  Love the relationship between a girl and her daddy!
  • When she farts we call her Nacho because she sounds just like Nacho Liebre.  Seriously, sometimes I can't tell if it's her or Ronnie!  
  • Tonight she got SUPER excited when she saw her bottle!  Her whole face lit up as I raised it to her mouth :)
  • Coos lots and lots.  Melts my heart every time I hear her sweet voice!
  • She gets hypnotized by the shower.  I can always get a shower in as long as I put her in her bouncer right next to it.  She'll just sit there quietly until she falls asleep, but wakes up as soon as I turn it off.  I'm definitely guilty of leaving it on after I get out so I can get ready.  It's a pretty awesome trick!

She looks so grown up and definately un-Chloe like. They are their own little persons.

So cute! I need to come snuggle with her. Kari tells me she is really good at that.
