2 years = 2 weeks of celebration

Officially Avery turned 2 on April 22nd, but we've been celebrating his birthday for the last 2 weeks. The party started the weekend before his birthday when Bebe was visiting and just kept on going through this past weekend with a birthday party with our friends and neighbors. He LOVES to sing the Happy Birthday song. You can see in the picture below he is making his shy/happy face when all of his friends are singing to him. Luckily we've got lots of birthdays coming up this next month so he won't miss his new favorite song. Here are a few pictures from his party yesterday.

Avery's New Cousin

Kevin's sister, Ginger, had her baby last Friday April 27th. Michael Thomas Templeton was born at 3am, weighing in a 7lbs 5oz. Here's a link to there blog....

He's adorable, he looks just like his dad!

Mama House

Yesterday Avery saw a Mama Duck sitting on her nest outside of daycare. He's been working hard at putting two words together. He pointed out to Kevin the Mama Duck and Daddy Duck, it was very cute.

When I got home last night he insisted on eating his dinner on the front porch so we could watch the cars and bikes and airplanes. He was munching on his cheese and I asked him if he as a mouse. He looked at me and said "Avery Mouse." Then he pointed to Kevin and said "Daddy Mouse." Then he pointed to me and said "Mama House."

I'm not sure if he meant we were sitting outside of my house, or that I look like a house??

NUGGETS! NUGGETS!

Yesterday Kevin and I carpooled to work. We decided to treat ourselves and drive through Starbucks for some coffee. I gave Kevin my order and as he is going through all of the options with the barista (whole milk, 2% or skim, sugar, splenda or equal, etc) Avery starts shouting from the back seat, "Nuggets! Nuggets! Chick Nuggets!" Keep in mind it's 7:30 in the morning andKevin is totally frustrated with the barista, we just start cracking up.

Have we been going to McDonald's too much?

Palm Sunday at Aunt Susan's House

Avery and I had a fun trip to Aunt Susan's house for Palm Sunday weekend. Sadly my camera battery was dead so I didn't get a lot of pictures. Check out Mateo's blog for the play by play on our Easter Egg hunt with the boys....
