Christmas 2009
What an awesome Christmas! God has blessed us so much with a precious daughter, great family, good friends, a home, jobs, and many other blessings. This is a good time of year to stop and reflect on all of the great things in our lives.
Avery is 22 months old...almost 2 years! Where has the time gone? She's a little mess. She is definitely an Allen and a Twelkemeier. Her hard-headed, stubborn streak is showing a little and she knows exactly how and when she wants things done. That's okay though...she's her own little person and we love her! She makes us laugh daily with her sayings and doings! Her new phrase, "I made it" now makes my heart skip a beat...until I see how bad the damage is! Today she used all of our stamps to decorate an envelope..."I made it!" And then she emptied an entire jar of vaseline and spread it all around...fabulous! These are the memories that we will cherish and laugh at in the future.
I found out this weekend that I'm going to be an aunt again! Well, not techniquely an aunt, but an aunt nonetheless! My cousin and his wife are expecting their first child. Early August is the due date and we are all so excited! It is so much fun to see our families grow!
