First baseball game of the season

Andrew and Aaron were given 2 free tickets to the
LSU baseball game last Sunday so they decided it was
a perfect chance for father/son time.  Aaron watched
the entire game and was sad when it was over.  They
also feasted on ball park nachos too of course! side note:
Aaron has the cutest toothless smile!!

Valentine's Day

The kids enjoyed some Valentine's Day cards from
grandparents which included Chickfila gift cards and $5!

Coloring with Great Granny

Another tooth bites the dust

Aaron lost another tooth! The tooth fairy is going
to go broke this month! This one fell out after he ran
into a pole at school... he said it didnt hurt though.

Judy pulls Aaron's tooth

Judy offered to pull Aaron's tooth this weekend (she has
many years of tooth pulling experience). At first Aaron
told her no but then she offered that Pop Pop would give
him $10 if he let her pull his tooth.  He must have been waiting
for the money offer because he quickly jumped on it.

Out came the tooth-- as Pop Pop and mommy were
cringing in the other room (we dont do teeth)!

I asked Aaron if he would like me to take him to walmart
to pick something out... but he said he had to wait until the
after the tooth fairy came to see what he got so he could
put his money together and buy something better!

Upward

Aaron is participating in Upward basketball at church-
at first I really tried to talk him out of it but I am really
glad we signed him up.  He has really had a great time
playing and our church has done a great job with it.

I need to bring our other camera to a game to get better
pictures.

He did score one goal so far this season.

Snow (ice) Days

We recently had a few days of what we
thought was going to be snow but all we
got was ice instead.  This was the only
photos I got of the kids because it was
just to cold for us! Avery wouldn't even
put her feet in it.  So we hurried back inside
and warmed up in front of our fireplace.  Have
I mentioned how happy I am that the new house
has one!!!

Cell phone photos from January

Avery's first big girl haircut...well just trim

Avery received her first haircut as a big
girl.... don't worry it was only about a
half inch. Mommy and Daddy can't part
with her long hair just yet. She was very excited
about the haircut and behaved so good.

Avery at art class

We have a local artist that owns a shop
next to Daddy's work- she offers great
art classes.  Aaron has done a few art
camps and she recently started a class for
toddler on Friday mornings.  We did a trial
class- it was fun and Avery had a good time.

Elizabeth's birthday party

We got home from Disney late on a Friday
night and then got up bright and early for
Aaron's basketball game (oops no pictures yet)--
and then headed to Elizabeth's birthday party.

This year she had a paint party and Aunt
Brittney did a great job drawing templates
on canvas for the kids to paint.

Aaron had a great R2D2 mickey head
and Avery had a Minnie head however
she just painted her whole canvas pink.

The kids has a great time!

Our last Disney Day

More Magic Kingdom day 3!

We spent most of our time at the Magic Kingdom--
we went there every day pretty much... its our favorite!

It was also red shirt day!

Breakfast in Cinderella's Castle

Every trip to Disney includes something
we have never done before.  This trip
was our first time dining in Cinderella's
castle with the princesses.  I bought
the kids some costumes to wear for the
occasion.  I thought this Peter Pan
and Tinkerbell set was cute.  Aaron loved
wearing his costume for the morning and
he actually enjoyed meeting the princesses
just as much as Avery.

Scenes from Day 2

We spent day 2 at Magic Kingdom and Hollywood
Studies in the evening.  We met Avery's favorite
character Mike from Monster's and enjoyed lots
of rides!
