Avery and Great Grandma Dolores


Avery loves going to great grandma's retirement apartment. We always have the best time there.

Avery Cakes- Typical Little Girl

Avery, loves to run, jump, swim in the "big" water. Like all 3 year olds she is learning to text before calling and loves to play animals on an ipod touch. She loves her cousins, friends, grammy's and grandpa's. She really loves her sissies, and her brother mama and dad. This little girl has done quite well, better than average we'd say. We are so thankful for her and how well she has done. Blessings from above and prayers answered.

All dressed up and no place to go!

Avery Girly loves to dress up in relatively nothing. She will often have swimsuits and summer wear on around the house. On this day the was undecided as to where she wanted to go. Loved the mismatched socks and the backwards gloves.

One of my Favorite Pictures!

Avery's sullen mood her captured. Not Avery's typical mood, but captured none the less. Now this is just precious to mom.


Avery Elizabeth Loves Christmas. How fun to see the excitement in a child's eyes. Yes, they are just beginning to learn the real meaning of Christmas at age 2 and 3, but they really get the spirit of giving and receiving. It's magical to see her eyes light up as she delivers a card she has made or a present to her siblings, friend or relative. Christmas hugs and snuggles, playing the the snow and having family time is the best. She is almost 3 here. Looking into the tree to try and find the "Birdies" she thinks she can hear them. This chair is almost attached to her hip. She carries it around and gets into all sorts of trouble with it. I have enough pictures to make up a story book of Avery and her little red chair!
Simply Adorable!

Hynes Christmas!

What more can I say...we had a Splendid Christmas. 64 people in attendance in our home. What a fun way to celebrate Christ's Birthday.

Where has the time gone?

Avery Cakes is 2 and a half and moving and shakin all around the town. What a fun and beautiful little spirit this child has. We all feel so blessed that she has joined our family and all would feel a void if she not with our family. Avery will tell you she is crazy- she loves to be silly and goofy. Avery loves coloring, tea parties, playing ball and loves goats and cows- go figure. She is a real lady too dressing up in tutu's and fairy wings...sometimes coming to the dinner table in just those items..ehm ehm... well she does a good zooloo to so watch out for naked babies in the House. Avery is STILL a mama's girl, but has managed to not be ballistic in the care of others. She has a recent and special affinity for Miss Angela and her friend Mark, Megan, and Oreo. She now only cries for a little bit when I leave her with her sitters..which isn't very often. She loves her big brother and sissy's - she calls them Guys... Hey Where are the guys today?She is already dreaming of one day riding the big school bus. Avery's speech and development has been leaps and bounds and she is doing soooo well. Her speech lacks any sort of nasal leakage and her pronunciation is amazing. Many answered prayers were sent our way. We continue to pray for her and all those who are affected by some anomaly. I am going to try to post more often- for Avery's sake and my memory. This blog has been a wonderful account of Avery's growing up....thus far. :O) We love our little sparkler and are trying not to spoil her. She's winning!

About Me

Saint Michael, Minnesota
Capturing life's moments has been a long time passion of mine. Taking photos of people should not only capture what they look like, but it should also capture what they are thinking & feeling at that particular Moment In Time.

Funny Kids!

  • Hayden sees me with my pump and a bottle of pedialite and says to me " Hey, I didn't know you could make apple juice" He was so serious and so cute!
  • Gracie Kate says to me.. mom did you always want kids.. my answer was yes... she said Well, now you got them...lots of them.
  • Hayden leaned over me in bed as he, avery and I were snuggling and said..." Is it just me or is Avery pretending to be an angel" My heart melted.
  • Maddie said that attending face to face confession with our priest was like sitting with God. You feel so close to God- It's awesome!
