A Day at the Pool

I am obviously way behind in blogging because we are back home safely. But needless to say, I haven't made time to blog lately...so we will just pretend we are still on vacation...That would be great!





Must take time to smell the flowers!


Still smelling

Smelling some new ones


After a long swim...everyone needs a snack...Avery's choice snack this week was cheese puffs and grapes! She probably ate close to 3 pounds of grapes if not more!
She is getting to be such a big girl!

Teddy Bear...Teddy Bear...

Avery has really become attached to Teddy Bears. She has a Teddy Bear that she sleeps with and we made a rule that we would keep Teddy in her bed. So we were shopping at a furniture store in Lexington and the lady gave Avery this Teddy Bear. She has since fell in love with him as well. She doesn't sleep with him...but loves to give him hugs and kisses.

Giving Bear a Hug!

Giving Bear a Kiss!

Giving Bear another Hug...That is one lucky Bear!

She loves to say "Bear"

A New Car

Avery got a new car before coming to Hilton Head. I found this on clearance and thought she might really like to sit in this and "beep" the horn. She enjoys playing with it in the condo as well as in the water.

Trying to beep the horn...it actually beeps! Avery is not strong enough to do it though!


Her facial expression after Mommy Beeped the horn!






Climbing is a new thing...she loves to get in and out of cars, boxes, up/down stairs, up/down out of the pool, up/down benches, etc



More from Savannah!

This is a candy shop that we went to in the old city market in Savannah. Avery was fascinated by the train that went around the top of the store and the lollipops!


Looking at the Train...

The train stopped..."Where did it go?" When you say this....this is what she does with her hands...too cute!
