Dinner With Friends

We had a delicious dinner last night over at Dan & Eileen's house = ) Avery had tons of fun with her future babysitters!

The Big 2 Month Mark

Yesterday was Avery's big 2 month birthday! That is...I'm assuming those with a birthday on the 29th celebrate on March 1st ; ) This was a big one because last night was Avery's big move to her crib and nursery!! And the results are in...we have the best baby in the world = ) Avery slept 7 hours in her crib, ate a little night time meal at 5am and then went back to sleep until we woke her up for breakfast. I knew this move would be harder on Mommy than baby! She may have slept like an angel in her own room but I couldn't sleep at all ; ) Today's job is to work with the baby monitor system to get the volume just right. I think I had it up a bit too high last night so I could hear every wiggle. Tonight hopefully I'll only hear the important things. Honestly though...I don't think the volume was my main problem...I think I just couldn't sleep b/c I was worried about my little girl sleeping all by herself a whole room away from me, haha!

And on another fabulous side note - little one is a morning person! Thank goodness she takes after her mother ; ) I love waking up to her smiling up at me from her crib, ready to start the day!

A Slow Return...

I made it back to my Lobo League team last Saturday night to a pretty horrific display of volleyball skills ; ) Apparently I have completely lost my vertical, have zero timing, and by the end of the game I was so out of shape that I couldn't even convince my legs to move to the left to pass a ball! I actually had a blast getting back on the court but I feel so bad for my poor teammates. We actually had a head to nose collision during the game which sent two of our best players to get stitches/heal. So...we ended up playing 4s against a team of 6s. To be honest it was more like 7 on 3 since I helped out the other team more than my own, haha = ) A little more practice and I'll be back in the game ; ) I played with my old sand team last night and at least it wasn't quite as bad as Saturday. I'm definitely not as sore today as I was Sunday!

I'll be fly fishing with you in no time!

Big Wave Ave

Avery got a bath this weekend immediately followed by a delicious meal. I guess I must have been holding her with one arm b/c her hair dried with a huge wave to one side. We couldn't brush it down so we figured it should at least get a great name and some pics = )
