I am WAYYY behind in posting.
A few weeks after we said goodbye to Chewie, we ended up adopting another dog from the shelter. We are crazy, I know. Joe was really depressed his best friend was gone and he is still really young (a year and a half old) so we ended up adopting a 9 month old puppy. His name is Buddy and we were told he is a shepherd/beagle mix. He is definitely nuts and makes Joe look like an angel because he tires him out since Joe was used to running around with a 9 year old dog, not a 9 month old puppy. He had a few accidents the first week or two with us but has been great since (besides chewing stuff).
We have a Kindergartener! I cannot believe it. Avery now goes to Kindergarten full-time, Monday-Friday from 9:00-3:30. She will be in a general education class for social things like music, art, parties and talking about day of the week/weather. She will then be pulled out into small groups (2-3 kids) for subjects such as math, reading, etc. We had met with the school in the months prior and we all agreed this would be a great option for Avery. She needs the social interaction with other kids but requires greater assistance with other things. Kindergarten has been an adjustment because she has been exhausted. She was used to only going to preschool for 2 ½ hours and getting a nap at daycare. I asked her if she likes school though and she always says yes. Also anytime we see a bus she says “yellow school bus” and points. She rides the bus to and from school.

Avery turned 6 on August 30! I cannot believe we have a 6 year old. She is so sweet, funny and makes us laugh everyday. She is awesome and we love her so much!
