Avery Rose is 5 months


Avery turned 5 months yesterday, and her personality is starting to really come out. She's rolling over....stomach to back only since she's not a big fan of being on her stomach. And laughs at the strangest things (must be a Dirk's thing). Today we had a play date with Avery's friends Jovin and Patrice. Jovin's Mom Amber let me borrow his sit and play jumper, and Avery went crazy. I've never heard her laugh, giggle, and squeal more. I video-taped her tonight playing in it, and once I figure out how to attach it to the blog, you can all enjoy the moment as much as we did. Here are a couple photos of her in the jumper, and the other one on her 5 month birthday yesterday.

New Year, New Events for the Dirks



So one of my New Years resolutions was to try and keep our blog updated on a regular basis. Its Jan 12th, and yesterday we had the first event of 2009...Avery's Baptism. She was such a good baby through the whole thing and only cried when being immersed in the baptismal font (or dunk tank) as my sister kept calling it....funny girl. Happy 2009!
