Sleeping Arangement


Look who is in her big bed!





As you can see she is loving it!


It's always a worry how your baby will do in a toddler bed. If they will go to bed at night. If they will takes their naps. If they will even sleep at all with their new found freedom. At least those were my worries.

Avery has done pretty well. We have found her sleeping on the floor from what I am sure was a crazy night a couple times though. And her naps I am happy to say still happen! I just have to make sure to put her down when she is extremely tired.

It has been nice too because now Cole can open her door, because she can't, to let her out and they can play and let us sleep a tiny bit longer. Not that that always happens but when it does it is WONDERFUL, which I'm sure all you parents know quite well! Any extra sleep you can get helps.

I just can't believe how big my baby is getting!

Let's Go to the Movie's Lets Go See the Stars


Yesterday, Monday-August 9th, Cole had his first big screen experience!

We have been wanting to take Cole to see Toy Story 3 for awhile now, so we did just that! Tom took the day off and we got a friend to watch Avery.

We told Cole that we had a big surprise for him. He was so excited! I think we were just as excited as he was if not more! He was upset though that we didn't leave him at Benjamin and Michaels house with Avery but once we got to the theater he was excited again!

Just being in the lobby getting our movie musts: popcorn, candy and a soda, he was awe struck. He loved all of the big signs and posters. And of course he had to carry the popcorn.

We didn't tell him what we were going to see but as soon as it came up on the screen he knew exactly what it was, "BUZZ"!

He sat so well through the whole movie and I loved it when he would loudly call out "Buzz" or "Woody". It just put a big smile on my face.

That was so much fun that we will definitely do it again!


Boo Boo, that's one of our many nick name's for Cole
so we had to get his picture in front of the huge sign for
the new Yogi Bear movie.


Unfortunately, I forgot our camera so these pictures are a little fuzzy because the lighting wasn't all that great and they were taken by Tom's phone. But they were too cute not to post.


Thanks for a fun time Boo Boo!
we sure love you!
love mama and papa

Yippy Skippy!!

Yay! I am so excited my sister and her family are moving to HOUSTON!!

My brother-in-law, Eric, decided he wants to be a mortician when he grows up so he applied and was accepted into a school right here in Houston!

They will be here the first part of December which means we will get to spend Christmas together! I CAN NOT tell you just how excited I really am!! They will be about 45-1hr. away but that is lots better than 25hrs! :)

I'm also excited that Cole and Avery will get to know two of their cousins better. Braxton is 2 weeks older than Cole and Jayden is 6 days older than Avery. This is going to be GREAT!!

I can't wait until they get here!!
