What a week - part 1

Too much happened this past week for one blog entry! Wednesday, Scott was sworn into the NY Bar!! Avery and I attended the ceremony at the Appellate Court and watched Scott become an official lawyer! YAY! Avery was the best-behaved child at the ceremony and fell asleep while we waited for her Daddy to sign the book of NY attorneys.

Thursday, Avery turned 3 months old and spent the day with Grandma and Grandpop at the Brooklyn Promenade! Where did the time go already?? I guess that’s what happens when you are sleep deprived!

Friday morning, we hit the road for St. Louis and Aunt Lisa’s bridal shower. Avery was terrific on the plane and was in relatively good spirits for most of the trip. Sometimes a house full of the Eckert/Toybes/Dirks/Kleiner clan caused for a meltdown, but she was passed around like a hot potato and she was full of smiles and laughs. She especially loved meeting her cousin Tillie (more to come on video in part 2)!!!!

Saturday afternoon we finally made it to Aunt Lisa’s shower (and she was certainly showered with lots of gifts!). Saturday night was a 2nd bday party for Tillie!!! Avery’s 3 month bday was also celebrated, but somebody was being rocked in her stroller to fall asleep and missed the festivities.

Sunday was brunch at Grandpa Mush’s house and lots of kisses and hugs goodbye. Avery was pretty calm again on the plane and seemed thrilled to be home with her toys and crib.

The new lawyer and his girl!
