Avery will be 7 (gasp...7...YIKES) on Sunday.

we decided that Avery gets to open a gift each day until her birthday (someone bought her a lot...)


today she opened one of the "big gifts" from mommy, daddy, and Livie.



we've been telling her over and over again that we just can't afford to buy her any more of the big American Girl dolls, so I think she was super excited when she pulled this out....



KIRSTEN!!!!

(excuse Avery's lovely hair and clothing...she has decided that she needs to open up her gift each day in the morning...before she's in clothing or has brushed hair!)



Uncle Jon and Aunt Holly also sent Avery a gift today, and she squealed a lot when she opened it!



Aunt Holly sure is a good mind reader of what little 7 year old girls are into! THANKS Uncle Jon and Aunt Holly!!! She LOVES it!
