Aveyn isn't walking quite yet, but she is close and despite her 'limited' mobility, she is an active little thing. Lately she has been pushing herself into a standing position without any help, but of course, only if that gets her more attention than standing on her head with her little butt in the air!
We bought Cael a hula hoop for his birthday and over Thanksgiving, I am pretty sure almost everyone tried to 'hula hoop' at least once. Makenzi was the only one who was actually able to do it, but I think Aveyn is trying to give her a run for her money!
She is also a bit of an action junky and loves being thrown into the air, being held while we chase Cael around the house or pretending to fly with Nana.
In an effort to keep her occupied one night, we gave her some ice in a bowl and she LOVED it (thanks Nana) so we have since purchased a sand/water table for her for Christmas (shhhh, don't tell). I swear it is the simplest things that keep them occupied. Between ice, bowl and tupperware drawer, we are set!
Last, but not least, this child is obsessed with Simba, my mom's cat, who we are watching for the winter while she is down in Yuma. Simba is currently residing in our basement and when he comes up for a visit, Aveyn can't focus on anything other than the cat. However, once she gets near him, she immediately seeks the comfort of Mommy and Daddy (or Nana), but if you try to remove her from Simba's presence, she throws a fit (go figure)!
She is certainly a cutie and most definitely a hand full, but we are having fun and that is all that matters!
