The Kitchen!!

Well, as you can see from the pictures, Avery got a play kitchen for her birthday!

Avery opened her presents from us Saturday morning because we wanted to make sure that Al was going to be home. Al and I got the kitchen put together on Friday night so that when Avery woke up Saturday morning it was all ready.

She was so excited! At first it was like she couldn't believe it. She just stood and smiled for the longest time. Then she went and opened and shut every door. She just couldn't stop smiling.
We also gave her some play food and dishes. When Avery opened the play food she got so excited she was stomping her feet up and down. So cute!!

I made chocolate chip muffins for breakfast and then we got ready and went to the Mills. Avery likes to go to Cabela's to look at the fish. Then we went to the toystore to play with the Thomas the Trains, which Avery absolutely loves. After that we played on the playground, had lunch, and Al took Avery on the carousel. We went in a couple of stores and I got some really good deals on some stuff for Avery for next winter. It was the perfect day!

After Avery's nap she came downstairs and it was like she saw the kitchen again for the first time. She just smiled and smiled. We had a gift certificate for TGIF's so we went out to dinner that night. Avery had a lot of fun and so did Al and I. It was a great start to being two.
