She is a precious, sweet, baby girl, but she also has a strong personality and knows exactly what she wants. She will take a toy or whatever from Alex and look him dead in the eye as he cries or yells and when he reaches for it she will snatch it back. She will tease him with something he wants-she will pretend like she is going to give it to him and then she will pull it back. It seems like she does it for the pure joy she gets from terrorizing her brother. I see many fights in our future and lots of punishment! Please pray for us.
She says "mama, uh oh, and da da" and she tries to make animal noises but only if you know what she's doing do you really think her "quack" sounds like a quack. The other day I swear she said, "yogurt" but John doesn't believe me. She loves yogurt by the way! Anytime I offer it to her she sucks it down with a straw. She also loves to eat my spaghetti, french fries, chicken nuggets, bananas, oranges, blueberries, green beans, cranberry salad, cheeseburgers and waffles. There are other things she likes but she may eat it one day and then the next she won't like it. She loves to dip food into anything she can get-ketchup, honey, ranch, etc. I know the above list is not always the best foods for an 18 month old to eat, but when she sees her brother with these things she thinks she is a big girl too and wants to eat it all by herself. Her burger may be sliding off of her bun but she will not let you help her feed her self. Stubborn, you think?:) Avery is a good snuggler at bed time. She almost always will let you read her a story but sometimes she wants to turn the pages herself and she skips half the book. When you sing her a song she loves for you to pat her leg or arm and she'll usually pat you too. She loves to dance and when she does her booty usually gets low to the ground. Needless to say, we don't want her going to any dance clubs!
If she doesn't like something she will lie down on her stomach and cry. When she doesn't get attention for that she will get up and carry on with life. She will sit in her high chair at a restaurant when the food is there but if she's not eating she thinks she should get down and play, so restaurants are not always so fun with her.
She usually goes to bed about 7 and wakes up anywhere between 6:45 and 7:30am. She wears a size 4 diaper. She loves to brush her teeth by herself. She loves watching her brother and will try almost anything he does. She loves to pick things up and put them in bins or baskets. Alex usually has her pick up his baseball players and put them in the bucket for him. She is probably going to get her first hair cut soon!
