Happy First Birthday!






Today you are one year old Avery Marie Shadle!

It's so hard to believe that a year ago Mike and I were handed one of the two best gifts of our lives. 







Here's what's going on with you right now:

  • You hate to crawl but aren't quite walking independently yet.  You're very close though and would much rather cruise or hold onto someone's hands.

  • You love to wave, blow kisses, give kisses and hugs.  Right now your favorite song is If your happy and you know it and you will do all the movements.

  • You can crawl up stairs and have made it all the way to the top of our staircase.

  • Every time you eat peas you show Mommy your good pincer skills by squishing all your peas before eating them.

  • You really love music.  It's not uncommon to watch you singing and dancing all morning long.

  • You can say mama, dada, bob-bob, and hi.

  • Every time mommy or daddy sneeze or cough you will imitate us.  Cracks me up!

  • Right now some of your favorite foods are:  bananas, oatmeal, yogurt, pears, and peas.  But don't try to delay any of your meals by even a second!  You are a hungry baby and like to eat right on time.

  • Your favorite toys are:  anything your brother is playing with, the leap frog table, the music toys and blocks.

  • You love any book that has animals in it.  The baby animals book that make noises is your favorite.

  • Every Wednesday we go to baby time at the library.  This is one of your favorite activities we do and I love to watch your face light up as we sing and dance.

  • Right now you have four teeth on the top and two on the bottom.  Your first molars are also starting to poke through (you are cutting five teeth right now.)

Happy First Birthday Avaroo!  We love you!
