the pictures above were at bear creek park last week. brian let avery steer the car around the park since there weren't many people around. she also learned where the horn was and that occupied her attention more than steering. poor tatum is still in the backward-facing car seat, and i can only imagine what the poor girl was thinking while avery was driving the car!!!
at brian's baseball game yesterday, we were playing our rival, so there were lots of fans and some very loud high school boys sitting down the row from us heckling. avery just watched them very carefully for the first few innings, and i wondered what she thought about all that. finally, around the 6th inning, she cupped her mouth with her hands (she's never done this before - she just learned it from the boys) and yelled in her little voice "You don't know what you're doing out there!". i told brian about it afterwards and he nearly fell out of his chair laughing. i still chuckle every time i think about it.
tatum, by the way, loves the games. she just crawls up to the fence, pulls up on it, and watches the game from her little vantage point. i rarely have to scold her, except when she tries to eat old peanut shells.
