Miss Averi ~ 18 Months Old

My little baby turned 18 months old on Friday! I seriously can't even believe how big she is. I just keep thinking about how little she was when we brought her home from the hospital. She was so little in my arms and her whole body didn't even lay across my body. But now when I hold my big 18 month old she hangs off both sides of my body. 

This girl knows how to eat! Her normal breakfast looks like 2-3 fried eggs, yogurt, half a can of fruit and milk. Can you say little piggy? When we get McDonalds she eats her whole cheese burger and usually half of mine (should would be more of mine but I stop sharing), plus her fries. She also loves shells and cheese. She is a little food moocher and always tries to steal ours. 
Averi loves playing outside. Whether we just for for a walk in the stroller, or when she gets to walk around, or if it is hot or cold out. She doesn't care, she just loves being outside.

 This is what most of the photo shoot looked like. The only way we were able to get a few good photos is if we gave her a cell phone to play with. 

Averi turned one years old on July 27th! She is no longer my little baby. She is very determined and has the biggest personality. She is so curious and notices every little detail of things inside and outside. Averi is very stubborn and wants to do everything by herself. She wants to feed herself with a spoon, she has no time for diaper changes, she walks everywhere she goes now, she loves making a mess with all of her toys, she loves pulling out all of her books and reading them, and she loves teasing mommy and daddy.
