Happy 3rd Birthday Ava

For Ava's birthday this year we decided to have a circus party! Zach went all out as usual and got the place all decked out! We had cotton candy, popcorn, mini corn dogs, foot long hot dogs, fries, funnel cake fries, pork sandwiches, and of course cake and purple ice cream. Ava's obsessed with PURPLE!! The kids had a blast. We had a face painter come who did the cutest stuff. Zach set up some little games for the kids to play. The favorite seemed to be the parachute game with all the balls! Ava definately got spoiled by everyone!!! Thanks to everyone for coming to Ava's party!! I can't believe she is 3. They grow up way too fast!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY AVA WE LOVE YOU!!!

Ava Getting Ears Pierced

Ava decided for her Birthday she wanted to get her ears pierced. I told her if she wanted them she would have to pay the lady with all of her binkis! I was shocked she actually agreed to do it. So on our way to get them I told her to gather up all of her binkis and put them in a bag. After she got it all ready we headed to the mall. It was so cute seeing her so excited to go get them pierced. I thought when we got there she would freak out and not want to give the binkis away but she handed her the bag and sat right down. She was a pretty good sport through the whole thing she only cried for a minute right after. I don't think she thought it would hurt! :) As far as the binkis went it was a little tough that day getting her to go down for her nap! She tried stealing Lylas once and after that she hasn't mentioned them again! Thank goodness for earrings, I thought I would never get rid of those binkis!! Good Job Ava! She looks so cute and grown up with her earrings!!

Santa Claus

The last two years we have gone to the country club to see santa. Ava has been hysterical both times. I wasn't sure what to expect this year. When we got there she was a little hesitant at first and made me sit on his lap with her. After that she was fine and wanted to sit all by herself. I was very happy not to hear the screaming this year! I think Lyla is still a little young to really know so we made it through with no tears!!!

Potty Trained

We finally managed to get Ava potty trained before she turned 3!!! It's about time! :)

We have a CRAWLER!!

Lyla has figured out how to crawl now!!

Lyla loves her big sister and wants to do whatever shes doing!

They are so cute together! I love having girls so close to eachother!!

Princess's On Ice

My dad got us tickets to princess's on Ice. We made it a fun girls night out. We went down with my mom and sister and her little girl. We went and had dinner at gateway before the show started. Ava and Halle looked so cute in the dress up clothes my mom brought for them to wear. They had such a fun time. The seats were great we were on the 3rd row. It made a big difference being so close. Ava actually sat really well and was amused throughout the whole show. Thanks Grandma for the fun girls night out and for always spoiling us!!!

Happy Halloween

Ava the fairy with Cute friend Bryson the fireman

Lyla the Lion

Maybe next year I wont be a party pooper and Ill dress up with the rest of the family. Zach is looking super hot as a cowboy! That shirt is the ugliest thing ever!!!

Lyla was worn out! The lion costume worked out great! She's not the best at keeping the binki in all by herself! We had a great Halloween! Ava was fun this year. She was all about getting lots and lots of candy! If she had it her way that would be the only thing she eats!!
