I've been a bad blogger this week...oops....here is a run-down of what Avery has been up to....

***Avery had her 6 year old appointment on Monday. Yes, the dreaded "kindergarten shots" appointment. I made daddy come with us, which also meant that Liv was along for the appt too. Surprisingly, Avery has gained a couple pounds. She now weighs......35 lbs! :) WHOO HOO!! She's now up in the 3rd % for her age! She is 25% for her height, so she's still managing to stay on the charts!

She did pretty well with the shots. She had 4 of them, plus a finger poke. The nurses (all 3 of them that helped to give the shots) said that she was really good. I can only imagine what they go through having to give shots to kids! Imagine kids who are royally ticked off, and in the 100% for their weight....try holding them down! geez....

**Avery started her "level 1" swimming lesson through the park and rec department. The best part...she's the only one in level 1, which means she gets ONE ON ONE attention from her teacher! We have had 4 lessons, and so far she has not improved one bit. I'm getting a bit frustrated, but I'm sure it will come with time.... Here are some photos of her in her class...

"C'mon Avery....try to blow bubbles...look how fun it is", says Matt, her teacher.

"Umm, it looks like fun, I'll try. How 'bout I just do pretend bubbles instead?", says Avery.

"Mom, take a picture of me to show your blog friends that I got my hair wet today!"
