Twinkle Twinkle.....

Aves has turned into a little singer. Singing songs has become an all time favorite of hers. It's hard getting it on video b/c she wants to be in charge of the camera, but I was able to get a sneak peak.

We were taking turns (working on that ) singing Twinkle Twinkle and so I decided to get the camera out. The first few times didnt work because she wanted me to sing. ha! Not on video. So you will see her say NO... ENJOY!

Playdate fun

Aves is a little ham. She will dress up girly girly, but will also get crazy with the boys. This is her playing with her friend Jude at the Vines house. Jude decided he wanted to wear Aves bow and was proud to do so. Too funny. Aves has meet some really good friends at her MDO program. I am so glad I decided to put her in this year. I have seen how much she has grown over this year. My little baby is just growing so fast. Love you my sweet Aves.

Tumble Time

At the end of every month at United Dance, where Aves takes tumble they let the parents come in and watch. This is Aves doing her thang at the end of January. She loves going every week to tumble and will do a flip about anywhere, especially off the couch. She is a very active 2 year old. Keeps her mama on her toes. Wouldnt have it any other way!

Theres a witch in Aves bed...

Every night before I go to bed I make sure to check on Aves. This is how I found her the other night. Reminded me of the Wizard of Oz...too funny. She is all about putting her pillows over her head or sticking her head under bumpers.

After I covered her. Sweet dreams!

Cowgirls

Aves MDO had western day and so I had to take a picture of her is her cowgirl wear. The first picture is of Sophie, Aves very good friend that rides with us to school on Tues/Thurs. Everyone thinks Sophie is mine too. They could pass as sisters...they love and fight like they.

Our busy Christmas

Christmas...was a wonderful holiday. Christmas eve we all made cookies for Santa and then made a birthday cake for Jesus's birthday day. I think Aves ate more cookies then she decorated, but it was a lot of fun. Christmas morning Aves got up and was so excited about her horsey that she ran straight towards her new kitchen. TOO FUNNY! I think she was a little overwhelmed at first with all the gifts. We slowly opened as she played with her new toys. My dad and Amelia came over and we had brunch and Christmas with them....then off to Henderson. Yes, Christmas is so busy for us since not all our family lives here.

We had Christmas with Austin parents and then got up Sunday morning to head over to my moms in Tyler to have Christmas there. I can say we had plenty to eat within the 48 hours of traveling we did. Sunday evening we headed back home and unpacked all the wonderful gifts we recieved. We are very blessed to have the family we do. Thanks everyone for everything!
