It's Doctor Now!!!

My brother-in-law did it. He graduated from medical school. He is now officially a Doctor!!!! Now I have another doctor I can bug with questions lol.
We left for Galveston on May 30 and finally got there about 4:00. We got into the hotel room and changed into our swim suits and headed across the street to the beach. Avery has been to the beach before, but not for a while. She loved it. She had no fear of it. I was surprised how far out she went. The waves would come and she would squeal and say "here it comes!", "nother wave". She didn't even mind the waves splashing her in the face. I was very impressed. She is a little water bug, but I thought the ocean might be too much for her. My younger sister and Addison went to the beach with us. Addie is about 6 months old, but she seemed to enjoy it too.
We didn't stay at the beach too long because we had reservations at 7:30 so we went back to the hotel to get cleaned up. Avery and Addie took a bath together (well Avery sat in the bath while we rinsed Addie off). We finally got to see the new doctor and his wife. We hadn't seen them since Easter. Avery still calls her Aunt Meana (Amanda) and Uncle Bake. She also calls Mallory Aunt Ma or Aunt Meow (don't ask how she came up with that name and if anyone needs to be called Aunt Meow it is Amanda, she's the crazy cat lady LOL).
We went to dinner at Fisherman's Wharf. Of course they sat us down right beside the silverware. Avery kept trying to go get more. My parents kept trying to get her to sit with them. She would have none of that. She wanted to sit on the other end next to baby Addie. After we ate she was getting restless so I took her outside where she proceeded to dance and walk up and down the train tracks (not used anymore) saying 1,2,4 (she skips 3, I don't know she learned 3, but now it is 1,2,4. Even when she counts 3 things it's 4 not 3). Amanda was brave she took Avery and Addison down the train tracks.
We got back to the hotel and Avery decided she was going to be a baby. She sat in Addison's car seat (head and legs sticking out) and then asked for a "flower" (pacifier). She got one and stuck in straight in her mouth. Chris then picked the carseat up with her in. She that was hilarious. She kept acting like a baby because she got attention. She was really cute though.
May 31 was Blake's graduation of course Avery didn't make it through the beginning. Daddy took her to the car and watched Mickey. We ate at The Spot were Avery took her shoes off and danced around the floor. Her feet where black, but she was happy.
We stopped at Chris's Aunt and Uncle's house on the way home. There two daughter, son-in-laws and grand daughter were there. Delaney (the baby) is about a month and a half old. She was precious. It was nice visiting with thme. Avery, daddy, and Uncle Robert went on the mule and looked around the property. Avery loved it. At one point the baby started to cry and Avery said "Baby crying" and stated that the baby needed a flower and nap.
