Hurry Up, Spring {with stats}

I'm getting behind again. It's amazing how quickly it happens.

We ate dinner with sweet friends Friday night. I might get in trouble if I tell you who they were because we're from different sides of the track. ;-)
But I'm gonna post the pictures of Aidan and Avery Claire doing flips and toe touches.

Aidan is a "real" gymnast. Avery Claire wants to be a cheerleader, so they got along perfectly.

 
I promise my child didn't wear that t-shirt to eat dinner. The first thing she does when she enters our house is run straight to get a short-sleeved shirt. This drives me crazy because she has some really cute clothes. All she wants to wear are t-shirts. And Nikes. Unless it's her red, sparkly Dorothy shoes. She'll wear those in a heartbeat.
 
Guess who demonstrated a toe touch for Avery Claire last week? With a little a lot of help from Dusty, I executed a toe touch like I was still in high school have just turned 30.

I do manage to talk her into long sleeve shirts occasionally. Like here.
 
I have no doubt she's watching Dora: Grandma's House again. It's her favorite. It'll win out over Max and Ruby 9 out of 10 times.
 
I never thought she'd actually sit down and watch anything on TV. She's still an extremely busy girl, but she will watch this entire episode of Dora.
 
By the way, she loves that Dora calls her grandma "abuela." She tells me "I have uh abuela."

Two words for that picture: Terrible Two's. And don't tell me three's are worse. I don't wanna hear it.

Today was absolutely beautiful. We managed to make it outside for about 45 minutes of warmth and sunshine. It was wonderful. I told Dusty it felt like the beginning of spring. He told me not to count on it. I know we'll have a lot more cold before spring, but it sure did make me excited about playing outside in the warm weather! And the groundhog did say spring was coming early, right?
 
Avery Claire is looking forward to playing outside again after school tomorrow!

Right after school today, Avery Claire had to go for a recheck to make sure her UTI had cleared up. All was well and the fiber gummies seem to be doing their job again, finally. Please say a little prayer they continue to work. If we get another UTI and constipation continues to be an issue {and causes more UTI's}, we're going to ask to be sent to a specialist. I really don't want to have to go that route! I meant to record her stats from the last few appointments, but just never got around to it.

Today's were:
Height:37 inches
Weight: 34.5 pounds
Blood pressure: 88/58

I keep meaning to do a post about funny things Avery Claire says, but I guess I just need to post them randomly or I'm gonna forget them.
Here's a couple. They won't be funny to you because 1) You're not her parent and 2) You have to hear her say things. I've got to record her "making a point." She says something really loud and stretches out her syllables to try to make us understand. It probably doesn't sound like she's being very nice, but it's funny.

We were reading a book about different kinds of trucks at the doctor's office. I was reading about the milk truck.
Avery Claire: "Milk doesn't come from twucks!"
Mommy: "Where does milk come from?"
AC: "the wunchwoom!!" {lunchroom!}

We got home and I said "Ask Daddy to come play with us. Go say "You wanna go outside and play with us, Dad?"
AC: "He's not DAD!!!! He's Daddy!!"

AC: "Mommy, when I'm big, I might dwive ewe down the wode!"
