Avery's Birthday Party!!!

Avery turned 3 today!! I can't believe how big my baby girl is getting :) We had a Little Mermaid birthday party yesterday at ASI Gymnastics and it was a blast. Avery loved every minute of it, especially the trampolines! The girl loves to bounce :) Her adorable shirt is one I ordered after seeing a similar one on my friend's blog. The website is here. Thank you Cousin Sage, Kella, Chase, Amaia, Aitor, Erika, Margot, Becca, Bella, Jack, Lillian, Evelyn, Cousin Logan, Baby Rowan, and Baby Maylee for coming to help us celebrate!!!

Ready to party!

State Fair!

My parents are in town this week, and today we went to the State Fair! The weather was a little warm but not too bad...and it wasn't very crowded at all. The kids enjoyed the petting zoo, hands-on farm, and kiddie rides, and of course we got to see Big Tex and eat some Fletchers corn dogs :) My mom got the fried frito chili pie and we gave it two thumbs up! We rode the Dart, and Avery passed out in my mom's lap on the way home. So early bedtime tonight, and tomorrow is her birthday party!!

Soccer Pics

Here are Aidan's soccer pics! Tomorrow is his last game (actually there's one more game but we'll be out of town) and he's had a blast on Team Hotshots!!

Enjoying the Weather

Last week we met some of our friends at Firewheel for some playtime. Then we ended wading in the creek, and by wading I mean getting completely soaked!

Arboretum Fun

Here are some pics from our trip to the Arboretum with friends this past week!

The Night of Bad Choices

A Few Minutes Unsupervised + Baby Powder = Extended Time Out. We are still finding baby powder upstairs. What a mess!!!

My Date with Aidan

This past Saturday Daniel took Avery down to Waco for the Baylor game. I stayed home and took Aidan to his soccer game, then the two of us went to Amazing Jake's, a huge indoor playplace. We had a pizza buffet and then go-karted, played miniature golf, laser tagged, rode a few kiddie games, and Aidan even climbed a rock wall (well, a couple feet).
