Always on the run

Photos are below today. A lot has been going on lately. Avery is keeping me very busy. She never wants to be sitting still. Friday May 4 Avery and I went to Athens so that we could go to Canton. We got to Athens and found out that a tornado hit Canton and there were tornado warnings all around Athens. We decided to wait for a little while before leaving. It cleared up and we left Avery at Mother's day out and went to First Monday. When we got back to the house with Avery she wanted to swim. It was pretty cold, but my dad got in with her. She loved it. She would sit on the edge of the pool and reached for my dad. He would grab her arms and swing her in the water. She would just giggle. She has really gotten pretty good at kicking her legs. We are hoping she will be able to float and swim a little with the arm floaties. She finally got out and we had dinner outside on the patio. Avery was distracted by all the things outside so she really didn't eat. She was so funny, my dad sat in her chair and she said "no popee my chair. Popee chair" and pointed to the chair he had been sitting.
Saturday we went to the park and had a picnic. There is a seat thing at the park that spins around. Avery wanted us to spin her around and around and around. She had so much fun. Then we went on a walk down a nature trail. Avery picked wildflowers as we walked. That evening we went to meet Mi Mi to eat.
Sunday my parents and Chris's parents came over to work on the swing set we have had since February. They got a good bit done, but there is still more to do.
Monday we went to G-mom and G-dad's house and visited with them. Avery played with the other kids. She enjoys playing with other kids, but of course she wants what she wants. She will say "Mine, or Avery's or Avery's turn". We haven't gotten the whole sharing thing down yet.
Tuesday Avery took her baby on a stroll. She got a stroller and she wanted to take the baby walking. So we walked down the street and Avery pushed her baby in her stroller. Then we met my mom and we went to Pump-it up (it is a place that has a bunch of moon-walks in it). She loves going there and playing. She goes down the slide over and over again.
Wednesday We had MOPS and played around the house.
I will write more later about the rest of the week.
