New Things

We are getting ready for our drive to St. Louis but Carolyn is on-call until this afternoon, so to pass the time, I am going to update our blog with pictures from this week.

Avery had his 18 month appointment. He is over 37 inches tall and 35 pounds! That's a very big toddler, he is way off the charts now. But developmentally as well as physically, he is doing great! He is really only wearing 3T clothes now, and we had to get him new shoes (sizes 8 1/2 W and 9 regular). He also got a haircut this week to get handsome for Christmas. Clara, the Princess-Leah looking woman who cut his hair when he turned 1, was working when we went to get his haircut again. And he was VERY good and sat up straight and watched the Wiggles video while she cut his hair.

New puzzle from Bubbe (it used to be mine? Rachel's? Hannah's?):


New shoes along with his handsome new 'do:



The pediatrician said we really need to be brushing his teeth twice a day; lately, Avery has been resisting tooth-brushing, so we thought a fun new brush might help. This brush plays, of all things, "Breaking Up is Hard to Do" when you brush. But it seems to work!



new hat, scarf, mittens for Mr. Avery:
