Avery Is Now Introduced!

Alright, I know I am behind on blogging and also doing it a little backwards. Her actual birthday was the day before her party so we let her have a little piece of cake since that is what they do back in the states! They don't do that here so we just had a little celebration her at home on the actual day of her birthday!
She wasn't real sure what to think about the cake at first. The cake here is very different though. Darin doesn't like it at all. He says the icing is fake! 

Cooper tried helping and showing her how she needed to eat it. Cooper doesn't think the cake taste different at all. Cake is cake to him! He loves anything as long as there is sugar in it!
Avery started enjoying a little more and we even got to skype with her Baga (my mom) and her GG (great grandmother/my grandma), so they were so thrilled to watch her. Avery also liked them cheering her on! I was so happy the Lord blessed GG with another year to see Avery's first birthday and pray for many more!
After Cooper gave one bite she was ready for more!
And then again, she loves the praise coming from the computer! She won't know what to think when she actually sees them and sees that they are real people. Not just faces on our computer!
You just got to love that face!


Happy First Birthday Avery!
I know there is no stopping this girl now that she has been introduced to the rest of the family's weakness...........SWEETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
