Avery....1 month old!

Oh my goodness, I am waaaay behind!!!

Avery turned one month old on Monday, the 26th!

Time has flown by!!

She is quite the little peanut.....

Complete with chubby cheeks and a head full of hair!

Here are the stats for her one month check up:

Height:  21" (55th percentile)

Weight:  8 lb. 15 oz. (42nd percentile)

Growing like a weed!

If I were to predict, I would say she will be tall like her daddy!  :)

She isn't doing too much these days, just hanging out and taking in the world.  Sometimes she is really nice to her Mommy and sleeps for 5 hours at night before waking up to eat!  Of course, she wants to be held more often that I can sometimes manage, but we made do!

She did have special visitors on her one month birthday though:

Auntie Phyllis and Uncle Elzie came and just snuggled her to pieces!

Landon had to be in on the action too, though!



So, happy one month Little Lady!  Before we know it, it will be happy One Year! 

So Long, Red Chair....

Every man has a "Man Chair". 

You know, the ones that are non-negotiable when you are first married and moving in together.

The chair that matches nothing, but must go in the living room because the butt imprint is perfect.

Usually, this chair is a hand-me-down with a million miles (and memories) on it.

And every stain/hole/rip/creak is "character" for this chair.

Adam's "man chair" is no different....

It has been with him a loooooong time!

**It looked pretty nice back in the day!**

But, after several moves, several "put back togethers", and TONS of use, the red chair finally had enough.

It no longer stayed upright, but leaned so far back, you only had a view of the ceiling.

And it was a killer on your back!!!

So, what is a guy to do if his beloved "man chair" bites the dust???

You go shopping for a new Man Chair!!

Here is the one Adam found:

And do you know what made him forget all about the red chair???

The heat, vibration, cup holders, cubbies, and cooler (yes, folks, a COOLER!) in the arms of the new chair!

Already, the chair has made several memories, with many more to come.  :) 

Ones like this are my favorite...

So long, red chair.....

Maybe one day Landon will move into his first apartment with this chair after it has hit its prime...

Some would call that a rite of passage!

Momma Moo

Conversations in this house have gotten quite interesting recently.....

We have a new baby, and I am breastfeeding.

Sometimes I pump as well.

With that said, this short conversation about brought me to tears....

Landon: Mom, beebos??

Me: Yep, Mom has to feed Avery with her beebos.

Landon:  Mom, cow juice? 

Me:  Yep, it's like cow juice (milk) but it's baby juice.

Landon:  Momma, moo?? 

Oh the innocence of a child!  I suppose I have a lot of similar characteristics as a cow these days....
