She's growing up!

I thought Avery looked very grown up in this picture, not as much a baby but a little girl. She's growing so fast it's crazy. Her latest words are pizza and make up. Really she's repeating everything we say, which means we have to be really careful when choosing our words. Last weekend I went with my Mom to Spokane to see Phantom of the Opera, which was fabulous as always, and to do a little shopping. It was a blast, we left Friday and ate at PF Changs before the play (best mongolian beef ever) then we hit World Market before checking into the hotel and taking off for the show. On Sat we shopped some more hitting Cabella's and the outlets and See's Candy and of course Toys R Us. Then we stopped in MIssoula to eat at El Cazador on the way home. I forgot how much I love El Cazador. It was a quick trip but I just didn't think I could spend a second night away from Avery yet. One night was nice but I still missed Avery a ton by Sat. She was pretty excited to see us when we pulled up and kept pointing and yelling "nanna" as we unloaded the car. I bought Avery a pair of snow boots at Toys R Us and she loves them. She had to put them on and ask to go "side". It's funny when she asks to go outside she turns her head sideways and says, "side". Then gets really pissed off if we don't take her out. I'm kind of hoping this new fascination with outside goes away before the real cold weather hits but I'm not keeping my fingers crossed. I have a feeling we'll be "side" a lot this winter.
