FIRST STEPS!!!

Avery took her first steps today!!! I was tempting her with the best toy of all...her daddy's cell phone, and she took 3 very purposeful steps towards the phone before she realized what she was doing and then quickly sat down. Of course we didn't have the camera out...but now that walking is probably not that far off, I'm going to keep the camera in one hand at all times!!!

I did want to post some cute shots from the past weekend. We had a beautiful Saturday, so we headed out to the zoo with our friends from the neighborhood, the Brown's. Here we are having lunch on the lawn....


Here are the Brown boys, Doug, Everett, and Sam. Everett was born just 2 weeks after Avery...

Avery was so excited about the giraffe!! I was pretty excited too because we have been to this zoo at least 20 times and I never knew that they had Giraffes or Zebras...

Later in the day we went to a BBQ at our friends Grant and Darcy's house. Don't get confused...the guys have switched babies below. Jon got to hold sweet little Hazel who is about 7 months old and seems light as a feather compared to our big girl!
