Last of Feb and first of March

I think to catch up I'm just going to do it month by month...Be ready for picture over load and little words...and keep in mind I'm doing this with a sleepy 6 month old in my arms and a almost 3 yr old running around!

 

I love this picture of Ava holding Jacob!

 Meeting Amber!

 Snuggle time with daddy

 Tummy time is always more fun with sister!!!

 During spring break Daddy had to play catch up in school so we went to Sassy's house to get out of the way.  We got to spend lots of time with Grammy helping her out after surgery and lots of play time with Sassy.

On Jacob's 1 month bday we got to go meet his great granny (Michael's mom)

 Sassy got Ava her very first ice cream cone!

 Jacob's 1 month bday party!

 Of course Daddy facetimed in with us!

 Ava took LOTS of bubble baths in Sassy's big tub...I couldn't believe it she started putting her face in and  not screaming to death with her hair being washed!

 Play date with Isaiah

 One of my best friends from high school got married in March so we braved it and took both kids to it!

 Jennifer and Jacob

 Ava and Daddy danced the night away...she didn't even want cake b/c she was dancing so much!!!

 Ava couldn't wait to meet the princess!!! She was GLOWING when she got to dance around the dance floor with Princess Chelsea!

 Group picture!!! (me, Jennifer, Chelsea, and Molly...we missed Joanna)

 After driving back home from Irving, I went to change her diaper and she informed me that she didn't wear diapers anymore just panties!!! (keep in mind we hadn't even really talk to her yet about potty training) So we went with it and she did AWESOME!!! She even pooped in the potty a few times...but then stopped that part...Feel free to comment on how to get her to poop in it!

Baby shower!

Hello blogger world...I'm back and we will see how long it last this time! LOL.  Lots of catching up to do.  Lets start back in January...  My wonderful friends Janaye and Amber had a baby shower for me and little Jacob.  Mustache theme. We even made a super cute scrapbook titles...Jacob I "mustache" ask you a question. Each guest made a page with a question on it. Each year you ask him the same question and see how they change over the years! Super cute!!!

 Ava and Carlee (Allison's daughter)

 Janaye, Kelsey, Kelly, and Stacy

 Ava working on her page, I believe hers says "what is your favorite thing to do with your sister"
(side note look how straight her hair is!!! It's now SUPER curly)

 My besties!!! Janaye and Amber

Ava's first performance

A few weeks ago Ava had her very first school performance!  We even checked out a fancy camera from the school library to document this occasion...too bad it couldn't zoom with the lens it had and I didn't really know how to work it....plus I can't edit them till I have my computer back...but at least they are up on the blog!  They also have updated blogger since the last time I used it and I don't know why or how to get the pictures to not be so crazy.  I'll take the time to figure it out later.  Hope you at least follow them!  The picture to the right is just the stage/screen

This is April, Rainbow Bible School's director. She has done such a great job and has worked with our schedules so much!

 Me and my boy!  You can tell how much he enjoyed the show...I guess we should of gotten him baseball cards after all! (that is what my brother got to keep him entertained during my dance performances)

 Ava Kate and her boyfriend Cannon.  (Cannon is my friend Allison's aka my twin at work, little boy)

 Attempt at a family  picture...I promise Ava's hair looked better than this when she went on stage...They were all pretty hot and sweaty when we picked them up out of their rooms after the show.

This is Ava's group...she is the end of the bottom left row.  They painted their shirts (the kids did the backs and teachers did the front...pretty smart if you ask me)  They sang 3 songs, "I'm a little blue starfish" --tune of marry had a little lamb,  "my God is so big", "if I were a fishy"  and a song about a monkey in the tree, but I can't remember the name of the song. 

 This is me not know how to work the camera, I moved closer to get better pictures and managed to focus on this man's bald spot instead of Ava! lol

 This is the next group.

The 

sailor's were by far the best/funniest group. This one kid kept everyone pretty entertained! 

Sorry for the far away pictures.  We couldn't get much closer...I guess it's a sign that we need to invest in a better camera  so we can zoom and know what we are doing!  Ava was by far the best little star fish.
