Way to Be, Ave


Avery has had a momentous Valentine's Day. Lots of amazing things being done around here!
Yesterday I had a cup of water and tried to give her a swallow. I went too fast and spilled the water all over her. After I dried her off I tried again and it took! Avery gave me a big smile and reached for the cup. I put the sippy lid on and she kept wanting drinks! Hooray. That is huge. I've been depressed about her not eating or even wanting to eat, soooo three cheers for drinking water!!!

The second thing is Avery is crawling! Yes, lots of physical therapy is paying off and it makes for a happier and better satisfied little girl.

All this and she had a stomach bug. These achievements makes her mountain of yuck laundry okay. :)

Side note: Eric surprised me with a fabulous Valentine's present. More to come!
