One of my favorite parts of each day - seeing my girl come prancing off the elevator with her Daddy.
And prancing right past me down the hall...
Avery Claire made herself right at home.
Starting School
We took pictures at the Microtel to commemorate our first day of school/daycare 2011. One was taken in the morning and one was taken right before bathtime that night. Bet you can't tell the difference! :-)
Love my Instagram app, by the way...
We spent one more weekend in Clay County before moving in our house that Sunday. Thanks for all of your help, family, that day!!! I know you were all worn out!
Moving In/Getting Settled {and trying on things we discover - like fall shoes}
I want you to pay attention to the mess, for once, because I want you to see how far we've come when I show you updated house pictures soon.
Decorating & Organizing
Mema and Nana came last weekend to help us. We got a lot done and our house began to look like our home!! Thanks so much for your help, Nana and Mema!
Gettin' Crafty
I did this the last week of summer, and it's still not finished. I still need to wrap the rest of the wreath, but I thought it turned out cute. I made the fabric flowers, which don't look great, but they'll do for my first try.
College Football begins
We were anxious for college football season to begin this year. We watched the Bama game Saturday. Avery Claire played and loved throwing her arms up when she heard "Touchdown!"
Excuse the hair.
She wore this last year as a dress!
Saturday night, we went to Outback and our big girl sat in a booster seat for the first time. She did quite well and even stayed put!
Any suggestions for removing ink? I've soaked it, scrubbed it, washed it, and there are still faint purple lines.
Today, we are playing and trying to clean out the garage. Doesn't she look so grown up with her rolled up jeans?!

Y'all have definitely come a long way the last three weeks. Brooke, I am so happy that you are feeling like you are getting more organized and settled into your new home and classroom! I love your wreath! Avery Claire looks so grown up in these pictures! She is adorable!! Loving those cute jeans and Bama outfit! We miss our Davis family! Love to you all!! Nana
Roll Tide Roll!
Wow!! Good job on the wreath!!!! Love it!
I am so glad you finally had time to do a blog. I have missed seeing what is going on in your life. I know you have been very busy, but I miss seeing how busy Avery Claire is and what she is doing. She is really growing and is getting too grown up to be 17 months. I love all of the pictures. I love the one where she got off the elevator like a grown person. Avery Claire, you are growing up too fast.
Love Grandmother Joann Hope to see you before too long.
For ink stains, spray it good with aqua net hairspray. I have done it several times, and it does work. I have to say I love Mema's hair! Love the new place! Are the floors concrete? Hope things start to settle down soon! I know yall have had one crazy summer/beginning of school! AC is growing like a weed and is as cute as always! =)
Don't worry about the ink stain! It is a memory that will always be there after she is grown out of the "what else can I write on" stage. Alex has learned to write her name so well that I noticed her name was written on the back seat of my car. :-/ Love your house! And if you have time, make me a wreath! I'll buy one from you! ROLL TIDE! Love you all! Rana
