Ketchup

So... I have been so bad lately about updating the blog. I am just going to quickly write about some of the things that we have been up to lately and post a few new pics.

Last major thing that we did was tak a trip to Florda for Memorial Day weekend. Both Alex and I had off of work Monday and we always like to try and take advantage of those free three day weekends. We didn't actually get to do much while we were there, in Orlando, but a short getaway is always nice - even if you can't or don't have time to do much. One thing we did get to do though was drive to St. Augustine and see my oma and opa at the beach and spend the day with them!

It was not a long drive and Avery got to see his great grandparents, aunt Vanessa and uncle Mike AND he went to pool and the beach for the first time. I am not sure he is crazy about the beach yet, but he does LOVE the pool. We had SOOOOO much fun visiting with the family and spending a wonderful day in the sun. Thanks to oma and opa for having us and for feeding us!! We love you!!

Also in BIG news... Avery has eight teeth now, he wants to eat everythig that I am eating and he will stuff as much as he can into his mouth until he looks like a little squirrel with big cheeks!! :) He is crawling completely on his knees now. He wishes he could walk but he's still afraid to let go if hes standing up. He pulls up and stands and bouces on everything he can reach and he's already trying to get into everything. He loves to get his hands on our cell phones or lap top, but one his favorite things is pulling items out of a box or basket looking at them or playing with them for a few seconds and then moving on to the next thing in the pot. He is a HUGE flirt and will literally look a girl up and down as she walks away..... I am wondering who taught him that.... He is doing just great.
As for Alex and I, we kicked it into third gear this summer and we're busting our tails!! So, we should both be done with school in December. I will have my Bachelors and Alex will be finished up with his Associates in Business and if things turn out the way he wants we will be moving to Orlando, FL for Alex to finish his degree in the hospitality field. Who knows where we'll be after that...... :)
