eyes of a child

watching a child grow and discover the world around them, has got to be the greatest gift God could have EVER given me.

Avery's personality has just blossomed. And to think a year ago he was maybe rolling over! He does new things everyday. He also thinks he is hot s#@$ when he does it!

I love his laugh and when he goes on and on with it. Keith was making him laugh, which in turn makes us laugh.

He truely is my son...I was making dinner and daddy wasn't home yet. I wasn't sure how well this was going to work out, but it worked for the most part. Well he saw the green pepper sitting on the counter. He kept pointing to it, so I handed it to him. He proceeded to walk around the house chewing on the pepper. He didn't eat much, but he actually took bites out of it. I love eating raw peppers...daddy not so much. Then he got the red one, but threw it on the floor!

Before dinner, I walked over to the counter and as I turned around I watched him climb ever so gracefully onto the couch. He grabs the remote and in true guy form, he points it at the tv and changes the channel. I walked over with the camera of course, and he is sitting there with a big grin on his face. Like haha mama! He then stands up and proceeds to jump on the couch. I say no and sit him now...yeah loosing battle. Luckily he never fell, but came very close, if I wasn't there he would have fallen on his head...maybe i can hang the couch and love seat from the ceiling?

He is just getting so big, so fast!
