Bye bye mullet!

It's been over a month since we've posted! So sorry, time has gotten away from us! Lots has been going on. Beebin got her first haircut by the lovely and talented Katie Jo. She had a bit of a mullet, but now her hair is all even and growing in really quickly! She will need another haircut soon! Berlin has been doing so much so fast! She's mastered the art of crawling and pulling up, and now she is starting to cruise. She's also waving bye bye, saying no (I gotta story about that), and clapping! You should hear her say no. It's very cute. I'm sure it will lose it's luster in a few months, but for now, everyone is enjoying hearing my little sister's raspy voice. She's not nearly as loud as I am, but she's still mighty. Okay, here's the story.... Berlin LOVES to play in the fridge! I don't blame her, I used to love it, too. One day, she was playing away when Deedah asked her if she would get out of the fridge. She shook her head no. Deedah thought it was funny, but asked her again, "Berlin, can you get out of the fridge?" She promptly said, "Nooooooooooooo!" Deedah laughed. He couldn't believe she said it in the right context. Ha! Soon it's all she will say, just you wait Deedah!

I have been doing well, too. I moved up to the 2 1/2 year room at daycare (I'm 2 1/2, can you believe it!!!). All my friends went with me, including Kingston (we're buddies!) and Preston, so that made the transition much easier! I'm kinda the ring leader. Everyone now wants to wear underwear like me, so one day, we all did! I'm sure that was fun for my teachers. I'm making great strides in potty training. My accidents are usually just poops (pooping is hard!), and I'm starting to nap without a pull up. I still sleep with one at night, but I'm still young, and this is a process (or so my parents tell me). They are very proud of me. I'm also teething :( I'm getting my second year molars and they hurt!! I've been handling as well as expected, and my parents are trying to help me ease the pain a bit (tylenol is my friend). I've learned my ABC's and will sing them with you, if you ask nicely. I am also learning to count on my fingers. Ask me how old I am, and I will tell you! I can also tell you that I have brown eyes, Mama has green eyes, Deedah has blue eyes, and Berlin has brown eyes. Apparently green and blue make brown!

Well, that's all for now. I will try to post more often. We miss you and can't wait to see ya'll soon!

Love, Avery

Life Moves Pretty Fast...



Here I am, crawling and pulling up. I am just doing one thing after another! I am a very motivated girl and will not be satisfied until I fulfill my lifelong dream of chasing after my brother! It won't be long.

Next step, driving.....

Talk to you soon!

Hanging out


Running!!

Hi!! How's it going?? Sorry it's been so long since our last post. Mama started her new job and has been busy, busy, busy. That means we started at our new daycare! It is going really well. Avery cried the first couple of days, but got over it really quickly. He now asks to go play at daycare everyday and is making new friends! As it turns out, a couple that our parents met a few weeks ago send their sons to our daycare, and Kingston is in Avery's class with him. It was nice to know someone already. Berlin is just chill and fits in everywhere. Her teachers love her, and think she is the best baby ever (which she is!) She's not napping that great with all the noise of the other babies, but she'll adjust. She still sleeps through the night, so it's not too big of an issue right now.

Exciting news! Berlin is starting to crawl!! She is still in the beginning stages and a little clumsy, but the girl can get herself where she wants to go! Avery loves that she's mobile, but not thrilled when Berlin decides to play with his toys.

Grandpa came to visit us last weekend! We were so excited to see him!! Avery, especially, was his little buddy and dragged Grandpa everywhere to play with him. We went on a little adventure to Centennial Park in Nashville. It has a replica of the Parthenon there. We had a great time running around, playing with the columns. We didn't even mind when it started to rain. It was so good to see Grandpa, and we hope to see him again soon!

We'll try to post more often! Trying to adjust to our new schedule, ya know.
Love,
Avery and Berlin

Miss B





Hi!! I don't know if you realize this, but I am 7 months old now! Time flies too fast! I am doing so many things and growing so fast, my parents can hardly believe it. Just today, I pushed myself into a sitting position from my belly. It was pretty cool. I'm a strong little girl! I'm also seconds away from crawling! I get into "the position" as Mama calls it (on my hands and knees) and rock back and forth. Mama says I remind her of Avery because I get frustrated and he used to do the same thing. She just lets me go because she knows I will get it in no time!

Mama took these photos of me to mark my 6 months on earth (even though I was closer to 7 months). In case you were wondering, she tried to get some shots of Avery and me together, but Avery was in a mood! He was not having it at all! Well, you can see us together in our videos. He really does love hugging and squeezing me, but he gets a little out of hand sometimes. He doesn't realize he's being rough with me, but I love it!

Avery and I start daycare again next week. I will be in a small room with 3 other babies and Avery will be in the 2 1/2 year room. Mama is nervous for Avery because he has had a little separation anxiety lately, but he will be fine once he gets used to it again and makes friends. I'll keep you updated on how it goes!

Talk to ya soon!
xoxo,
