Avery's party

 Last weekend we had Avery's birthday party in Katy (Colton's niece).  My aunt had bought Korbyn this super cute outfit that I couldn't wait for her to wear.  Colton had a fishing tournament that morning so we were waiting on him to come home so we could head out, well he ended up being an hour late so by the time we actually got to Katy everybody was already swimming.  So we literally showed up and changed into our swimsuits, poor thing didn't even get to strut her new outfit :(  Naturally she had a blast in the water.  It was so funny because every time I would lean her toward me where she was almost laying on her tummy in the water she would just automatically start kicking her legs like crazy and start squealing!  I can't wait to go swimming with her again.

After the party we went to Bass Pro (of course) and I wish I would have gotten a video of her watching the fish in the big tank, it was priceless.  I set her right next to it and it took her a while to realize that there were fish in there.  Well one started swimming right next to the glass right in front of her and it must have caught her attention because all of a sudden her eyes got real big and her mouth just hung open watching that fish go by!  Then she realized there was an entire tank full of them and she just kept staring at them. 

We were in there for quite a while and we wandered over to the kid section where they had an entire rack of all these different kinds of stuffed animals that made noises.  They had almost every kind of animal, even flamingos (I had no idea flamingos made noises like that!).  Colton wanted to get her one so he started grabbing every single one, would squeeze it and let her listen to it then go on to the next one.  Every time he would squeeze one she would just look at it and didn't really have a reaction to any of them.  WELL...he pulls a quail and it starts making it's noise and she goes crazy!!!  She starts reaching for it and kicking her legs and squealing all at the same time.  We both just looked at each other and were like "ok, I guess we're getting the quail!"  She loves this thing!  Even when Colton was putting her back in her car seat in the truck she was straining to look where that quail was.
 It was dark on the way home so the pictures didn't turn out very well, but you can see her holding her precious bird.  I told Colton, "what a little tomboy, she had the choice of all these pretty pink, red and blue birds and other really pretty animals...and she chose a QUAIL!"  The girl knows what she likes that's for sure!
