My Little DARE Devil

Avery is getting really brave lately. She has realized that she can climb on everything. The other day I was talking to Andrew about posting this blog and as I was talking Avery climbed up onto the love seat with him and proceeded to climb OVER the couch. If Andrew hadn't caught her she would have falled right on her face; of course she thought it was funny that we were making a big deal out of her "abilities".

This is how I found Avery recently. She climbed onto the ottoman in her bedroom and I watched her as she jumped from the ottoman to the rocker. . . she thought she was so funny. I ran to grab the camera. I got back into the room as she was going to jump back to the ottoman. I snapped the picture and ran to catch her before she fell on her head! It was close. She laughed though!
In our apartment our window sills in our apartment are very low. Every 6 months we get a notice from the landlord about installing window guards, now we know why. Avery learned a new trick. . .

Doesn't she look so cute looking out the window?

How about now? Climbing on the window sill. . .


Ok - not only does she stand and lean on the chair, but she swings her leg around and climbs into her seat, turns around, and sits down (I was too afraid to try and get a picture of that; I wanted to be close to catch her). She is crazy! It really amazes me how big she is getting and how much she is learning and trying. I love to watch her. Be on the look out, we may post a blog later titled "our trip to the ER"!!
I love my dare devil.

I'd rather have a Dare Devil child than a wimp. You go Avery!
