18 months!

Avery's now a big 18 month old, saying lots of words - Up, More, Crackers, Moo, Quack, Neigh, Mama, Dada, Bye, Hi, Hot, Cold, No, Bath, Bubbles, Push, Banana, Eyes, Nose, Knees, One, Two, Juicy, and more.

She can get up and down off the couch by herself, open and close doors, play with a bucket and shovel at the sandbox and pet her cats Missy and Monty (although she calls them nah-nah).
She is also increasingly independent, wanting to brush her own teeth, or feed herself with a spoon or fork.

Here are some new pics... and we'll do another update after our vacation at the beach!!!
