The Davis Studio returns

We thought we would take advantage of the nice snowfall and take a six month picture of Avery.

Lost and Found

Found: One large, round, black giraffe.
If this giraffe belongs to you, we are really sorry.

Finally, enough snow to play in.

Now what am I supposed to do?


Check out my sweet ride!


Venus wanted to help pull.

Avery and Banana at 6 mos!

I can't believe it is already time for his 6 month picture. It was fun trying to capture this picture because he really wanted to interact with Banana this time. I think he wanted to try to bite Nana because his first tooth finally popped through.

Feeding 101

The rules of feeding.....



Eating with Dad. Open....Close....Swallow....Open....Close....Swallow



Eating with Mom. Food? Who cares about eating! This is way more fun!!

Davis Christmas and Laura's graduation

This past week we had a great time hosting the Davis Christmas and Laura's college graduation. Good job Laura! We passed our time by playing scrabble and trivial pursuit and eating way too much food.




Grandma and Grandpa Davis



Having fun with Grandpa- look at that smile!





I think we had enough food even though some were worried we wouldn't

Venus opening her Christmas gift from Laura- she loved the sugar cookie bone!

Happy New Year!

Welcome 2007- We enjoyed the night in Milwaukee with friends playing games and eating too much food. Avery did a great job joining in. We put him to bed and then woke him up at 10 to head home and bring in the New Year with a toast.



Avery and Eva meet again!



What great friends



Our midnight toast at home- minus the actual toast.

Avery's Fashion Mentor

First Christmas

Avery enjoyed his first Christmas.



We were trying to get a nice Christmas picture by the tree but all Avery wanted to do was suck the wrapping paper off.



He wasted no time devouring his present.



He thought he was awesome because he was old enough to be pulled in a little wagon.

What a fun toy!

At church this last Sunday, Avery was playing under their activity gym. He really liked playing under it and started reaching and rolling around which is a great way to strengthen those muscles! While I thought this was a great toy, I wasn't going to buy it because he would only use it for so long. Well, when Avery and I were under the coffee table checking it out (don't ask), it occurred to me that I could make a homemade gym by taping toys to the coffee table. Well, it worked and Avery is enjoying his new toy.

First Solid Food

Look at my new toy!

Christmas came early for Avery with the delivery of his new walker from Grandma and Grandpa Davis. Once Mom figured out how to put it together, Avery loved it. He really likes the toys and has been determined to take them off of the tray. I guess that will entertain him for hours because they don't come off! Avery says, "Thanks G & G Davis, now I can explore the whole house with Mommy running after me!"

Nothing better than relaxing in a tub!

Sometimes he relaxes too much- just after this picture was taken he fell asleep!

I'm growing so fast!

This picture was taken on Thanksgiving. It is of Avery and his cousin Jaycent. They are little over 5 mos apart but Avery is almost as tall as Jaycent. He was in 90 percentile for height two weeks ago at his 4 mos appointment.

Bathtime!

I just thought that the robe and slippers were cute, so I decided to post this one.

Give me the box and I'm content!

They always say that the box is more exciting than the toy. Well, every time I get out Avery's toy box, he wants to play with the actual box and isn't so interested in the toys.

AHHH..... the wonder of snow!

3rd Annual Friends' Reunion

Each year Janna, Sarah, Irene, and I get together with our families and enjoy a weekend together. This year we stayed at an awesome cabin in the Dells. This place had 5 bedrooms and a huge great room. We had a blast spending time dancing to DDR, eating great food Todd prepared, taking a walk, laughing, playing games, and talking into the night. I think I got a total of 4 hours of sleep all weekend.
