Zoo Field Trip

Aaron's Pre-K class went to the zoo this week. I was
able to come along (thank you to Gram for keeping
Avery).  We all had a great time-- all the kids fell
asleep on the bus ride back to school-- and this momma
needed a nap when it was over!

The class does a dance each morning after breakfast to
start their day-- I thought it was really cute.
 

On our way!

Loose Teeth!

Aaron has his first set of loose teeth. I noticed the
last week or so that his bottom 2 teeth were starting
to seperate. I checked today and both of them are loose...
he is excited... Momma is NOT! I hate this stange
of life... I hated loosing my own teeth.  I had to snap
a picture before they are gone and he looses this
"baby" mouth.

Aaron's photography

Aaron loves to take pictures with his camera we
gave him during our disney trip.  I decided to take
a few of the picture off and post his work.

 

Dress up

Aaron and Avery love to play dress up-
here are a few of their latest creations-
sports themed of course. The top picture
Avery is wearing Aaron's LSU basketball
outfit-- her brother put it on her!

Happy Easter!

 

Happening today...

In honor of Dr. Seuss's birthday this week the school
has several fun days planned. Yesterday was crazy hat
day but I forgot to take a picture. Today is crazy sock
day and Aaron wanted to wear his sister's leg warmers

 



Avery's pageant dress came in today- we just
had to try it on right away.  Avery will be in her
first and most likely ONLY pageant on March 16th.
 

Saturday Night in Alex Box Stadium

We were given some tickets to an LSU baseball game
on Saturday.  We decided to go and we actually
lasted 4 innings which was pretty good since Avery
was with us.  They also have a playground
inside the stadium so that was really nice for the kids
to play on before the game started.

Avery just being cute!

Some recent cell phone pictures

We recently attended the Family Book Fair night at
Aaron's school. Here are 2 cell phone pictures from
that night...






And my two little loves riding the horse together

Aaron saying the 10 commandments!

Aaron took this picture of Avery-- She made this
face just for him. I thought it was cute.

Family Night at Celebration Station

We had some beautiful weather on
Saturday so we decided to get out of the
house and go play putt putt golf at
celebration station.  Both kids played
for free so that was a plus!

Aaron got a hole in one and Avery threw
a huge fit when she had to give back
the ball and club!

My Avery is 18 Months old!

Avery is now 18months old! How
does the time pass so quickly!

She is about 22lbs or so and still
only has 6 teeth but I think that is
about to change because I can feel
a few more teeth breaking through.

She is a sweet spunky little girl that
loves to pick out her own bow in
the morning and loves to play with
her big brother!

100th day of school!

Jan. 30th marked the 100th day of school
for Aaron. His class did a few 100 day
projects.  The first was to collect 100
can goods for the food bank-- they collected
102! The second was to bring 100 of something
to show what 100 looks like-- we choose
pasta. And the third was to dress like an
old person on the 100th day!


Daddy popped the glass out of his
old pair of glasses and mommy drew
the mustache on him with a marker.



Here he is counting his 100 pieces
of pasta to bring to school

Happy Sunday!

Another Sunday morning photoshoot-
I love this Mardi Gras dress that
Avery has on! And yes Aaron has
a tie on with a vest-- some things
are just not worth arguing about
before church.

January Happenings

January has been pretty quiet at our
house.  Aaron is back at school and
Avery and I are trying to keep busy.
We had 2 weeks of solid rainy days
so we are so glad to see some sunshine
lately!

I took Avery to the Little Gym this
week for a free Intro class- Aaron took
classes when he was this age. She had a good
time but she isnt as outgoing as



We visited the park on MLK Day

I took a soap making class - it was fun but I
think this will be my only batch of homemade soap

Happy Sunday!

Avery's First Pedicure

I painted Avery's toes for the first
time today. She kept pointing to my
toes after I had them painted so I
decided it was time to paint hers.
She actually sat still and let me paint
them. She has been showing them off
all day.

A Look Back..

This last trip makes #5 in the past 6 years.  People
always ask why dont we go somewhere else or
why do you want to go again... the answer... because
we LOVE it! We love everything about Disney-
the ease of planning, its always clean, you know your
are gonna have a great time, and you never get the
same experience twice.  Each time we have gone its
been a different vacation either b/c at first we didnt have
kids or b/c they always have something new! Disney
is such a great place to start traditions and I hope we
have many more trips in the future!
