Avery's 3rd Birthday - Elmo

Happy 3rd birthday to my little angel princess baby.  (I just can't let her hear me call her baby.  She is NOT a baby, she is a big girl and she will let you know!)








It was also Hayden's birthday.  (He was a good sport with the Elmo party and all!)






Julie came and we got to meet Claire for the first time!


Pin the nose on Elmo was a lot of fun even though Tim was the only one to actually keep the blindfold on!



Brandi and Jason gave Avery 6 pairs of princess dress-up shoes, and she is in heaven!!

We retook the family picture since the one from Easter got lost.


My silly girl!





Pedernales Falls

A few weekends ago, Tim and I took a trip up to Pedernales Falls to do a little hiking around.



Hanging out in Aunt Monica and Uncle Jeff's backyard.  Empty boxes are so much fun!!

Easter 2011

I can't let a holiday go by without at least one new craft!  
Here is our new Easter egg garland.

For Easter, my whole family came over and we ate lunch and the kids hunted eggs.  I took a lot of pictures of course, but when I went to upload them, the card was corrupt.  So the reason there are no other people in the following pictures is because these pictures were actually taken a few days later.  I dressed the kids back up in their Easter clothes, and they got to hunt eggs again.  Avery was a little disappointed when she realized this time, the eggs were empty!







MOPS

This year, I joined MOPS.  Since I joined right at the end, I haven't been to many meetings, but we did make it to the Easter Egg Hunt.






Jake had so much fun climbing up the slide and sliding back down on his belly!

VERY excited about the ice cream!

Just Another Day!

This was just another day at our house.  

Avery has really been into changing clothes and dressing up lately.  She goes into her closet and pulls out a new outfit about every 15 minutes.  This time she came out with her ladybug costume from last year, and said she wanted to go outside and take pictures.  I guess she was remembering that we did that for her 2nd birthday.  (I love the dance moves!)







These are the Easter shirts I made for Avery and Jake.
