Jaeden's 1st Gormation

Jaeden wanted to make her own baking creation, her secret recipe, so I let her go to town. She added flour, salt, LOTS of sugar and asked me to put in an egg and a few other things. She is so proud.

We baked her secret recipe and when they were finally done, she wasn't quite sure she wanted to eat it. She was very hesitant and tried to get Avery to eat one with her but Avery refused. This is her first and only bite.

I asked her how they tasted and this was how she replied. She cracks me up but I love that she wanted to try.

Labor Day

We went to Pflugerville Park for a picnic with Grandma and Grandpa Haynes, Grandpa George and the Brocks. I wish I would have taken more pictures of the fun. We were so happy that Grandpa George came to visit too, we love you!

Avery's 3rd Birthday Celebrations

For Avery's birthday, she wanted to go to gymnastics. She decided this months before her birthday and asked about it everyday until the day finally came. The girls could hardly wait for the birthday friends to show up.

Their pre-playing stretches
Jaeden is a little monkey. She climbed this rope all the way to the ceiling with no effort.

All the cute friends

Avery had intense concentration and walked the whole way without falling. She did a beautiful little jump off the end too.

This is gymnastics sledding :)

Avery wanted a barbie princess cake. It looks like a Dora Princess. My incredibly awesome friend Rushell came over the day before and put it together and frosted it for me, thank you so much!!

I love the cheeks

The following pictures are from the birthday party we had with Dan's parents and Grandpa George. We were so excited they came up from San Antonio and spent her actual birthday day with us. We had so much fun. Dan's sister Jackie and her family joined us as well for most of the fun. We went to Kiddie Acres for all the fun rides and then off to Gattiland for dinner and more fun and games. We loved it all! Afterwards we headed back to our house for cake and presents.

Such handsome men

I just LOVE her!

The girls were so cute playing with Avery's new doll, brushing her hair together.

Our cute little fairy princess. Oh, and by the way.... Avery and Jaeden both got their ears peirced first thing in the morning. My camera died right when we got to Claire's or I would have posted about that too. Jaeden went first and told Avery it wasn't bad so she got up on the chair and was not a happy girl until the lady put a mirror in her face to show her how beautiful her new earrings were. She was instantly pleased. :)

Happy Birthday Avery

Sept 5, 2006, 2:51 pm Avery graced us!

We are so excited to celebrate Avery's 3rd birthday! She has grown up so much and we wanted to share some pictures of her. She keeps asking and even praying for her ears to get peirced for her birthday, we'll have to let you know if that happens. We love our beautiful Avery so much, she brings so much fun into our home. Happy Birthday little girly!

Kindergarten, WOO HOO!!

Jaeden is all ready for her first day of school.

The whole family walked down the street together to take her.
Avery wanted in on the camera action too.

I couldn't resist taking her picture at her new desk(well table really)

She was so excited despite the screaming classmate. It was hard to leave her but successfully their was no tears (for either of us).

Jaeden and Audrey

We came and picked her up from her long day of school. She said she was so tired and hungry. She kept telling me all about her day and how much she loved it. I can't believe we have started the world of school but Jaeden is so smart and ready for it.

Kindergarten Party

We thought it would be fun for Jaeden to be able to play with as many of her friends that were starting Kindergarten one last time before school starts, so we had a Kindergarten party. The kids came in their swimming suits and we had a slip n'slide, a cool shark pool (thanks Lara) and a fun sprinkler (thanks Abby). When the kids were starting to get bored with that Rushell brought a fun waterballoon game to play. We had lunch and then crayon popcicles. We had a great time, lots of fun!

Surprise Shower for Janelle

Rushell and I made this carseat cover for Janelle. It was our first time, Janelle may be the lucky one to have the one and only original. It was fun to make.

Janelle, Rushell and her mom Kathy

Rushell picked me and Janelle up for a girls night out to Cheddars for dinner a few weeks ago. We had a little surprise for Janelle when we got there with all these fun ladies to celebrate Janelle's baby girl, Ainsley who is due in a couple of weeks. She got lots of adorable baby girl clothes and other fun baby items. It was so fun and we are excited to meet this cute baby girl.
