Finally News and Pictures!!!

I't was sunny and bright, but you can see my Big Belly!

Ava being silly girl!!

Water Babies... her first dunk!

In College Station!

In her Big Bed!

Yeah!! We are in our new home and we LOVE it. Today the Atlas truck came and picked up ALL of our empty boxes....we are officially FINALLY unpacked, but still organizing. We were so ready for last Thursday-- we were no longer guests at the College Station Town Home Suites, it was the longest 2 weeks ever!
As well as moving we have also started Ava in swimming lessons everyday( w/ daddy...well i do go but just watch) and Kindermusik (w/ me) on Thursdays. We have had the opportunity to meet several little friends and parents.

As far as Baby Ashton he is definatly there...I'm sure he is just gonna be thrilled to meet the person who is always laying on his space, it is getting harder and harder everyday to hold Ava because of my big belly. She gets frustrated because she can't sit close in front of me to read books like she used to :)

I took the last picture today...she has her own new Big Girl bed and she actually fell asleep while talking to herself. Also as you can see in the potty pictures she wants to sit on the potty any time she toots, pees or poops she'll say "mama poo-poo potty" . So I guess when she is ready shell let me know! I will post more pictures of our house as i get it organized.

We miss you all in Longview, would love to hear from you!!

Moving Day!!

Today is moving day...we were up bright and early with our movers ready to pack up our things.

We will be staying our last night here at our Longview home, and then we are all headed to Pittsburg to be with my mom until Sunday. I will probably not have a computer to post for awhile so keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we start our new journey in College Station.

I love being a MOM!!

This is the best part of being a mom watching Ava change and grow everyday!

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL!!

Our New Home!

YES! It is all coming together we have signed the final contract on our new home. We are so excited. We will be leaving Longview on the 18th. I get sorta sad to know that my family and all my friends are here, but we will be back many times to visit for sure!! I will have the baby there. Ya'll are all welcome to come visit us!!

Good Times @ the Great Wolf Lodge!

This weekend was a BLAST we experienced the INDOOR Great Wolf Water Park in Dallas. The kids loved it!! Anytime Ava has a chance to be with her older cousins she acts so big.

Samantha is 6, JT is 3 and Ava 16 months!

It is official Thomas has started his new job down by College Station and we have sold our house. This is VERY exciting for us!! He loves his new job and we are now busy looking for a new home!

Ava with her cousin Samantha :)

Poor Roxy!!

Home and at the end of the day!

Ava in Action!!

Three Easter egg hunts later and Ava was a professional!! She knew exactly what to do, how to hunt for them and how to eat the goodies inside :) Can't wait to see her in action next year teaching her little brother!!

Happy Easter!

Ava wasn't sure about this whole experience it was too colorful not to be eaten. Of course she broke one and decided she was ready to eat, or get real messy... and so Mom and Dad finished dying the rest :)

Something to Talk about...

Ava loves to hang out in MY bathtub...today I found her just talking away.

Here is some of what she can say. Enjoy!

Hippoty Hoppity Look at Ava GO :)

Today was Ava's Easter Party at school. I went to her Easter Egg Hunt this morning and boy was she eager to fight for those eggs and keep her basket close to herself. She didn't want anyone stealing HER eggs. She has the hang of it... and we get to go to another one tomorrow.

The Easter Bunny is in Town...

Ava just adored the Easter Bunny! She did not want to leave the mall :) This age is soooo much fun Thomas and I enjoy laughing at her repeat what we say at times, and just her happy self. We couldn't ask for anything better. Thank you God.

SNOW in March!!

Today we woke up to SNOW! This was taken at 7:45 am and as you can see in the pictures Ava still looks asleep :)

We love our Little BOY!!

We are thrilled to announce we will be having a baby BOY!!!

There is absoulutely no doubt!!
