8 months old and doing lots of new things...

Hard to believe Avery is 8 months old already!! She’s growing up so fast! And it’s getting hard to keep up with all the new things she’s doing. Here are a few new milestones from this weekend…

Avery learned to wave “bye bye”! Unfortunately she usually waves after the person has already left…



Since we live in a ranch style house, Avery had never seen a stair until this weekend…but she had no problem climbing right to the top of the stairs at Jim and Judy’s house…











We have had some pretty rainy weather in Portland (shocking, I know), so Avery has not been outside much lately. But while walking in San Fransisco this weekend, we stopped at a little park to feed her…and we realized it was the first time she had really felt grass. She was so confused.
After about 5 minutes of consideration, Avery finally did decided that grass is safe to crawl on. Unfortunately I did not get any pictures of this, partly because I was laughing too hard to take pictures by this point at how cute she was being afraid of grass; and partly because once she figured out it was ok, she just took off and my full time Baby Chasing job was back on…
