Christmas Program

Ava had been practicing  for her holiday program at home. She would show us her dance and singing skills. Then one day Ms. Diana (their Spanish teacher) told Ryan that we don’t want to miss the show. That Ava was the star. Of course he didn’t ask what that meant. So I was thrilled to attend and see my baby girl in action. She knew all the words, dance moves and best of all she kicked off the program for Pre K 2. She stood up at the start and had a solo piece. I was one proud mama! I was smiling ear to ear, beaming with happiness.



Fun at Mimi and Gramps

The kids and I spend time with my parents.

Ryan and Ricky went to Huntsville to see the Bearkats. They Won!!

Pictures with Santa

Nathan was real tough waiting in line, but when he saw Santa it was all over. However, his sister made him sit there while she asked for a Schnauzer, Bike, Trampoline and a green bean bag for Nathan (only so he doesn't sit in her purple one anymore.

Once again Gramps is the best. He went to Bass Pro Shop early to get us a ticket to see Santa. He kept our place inline as the kids and I looked around, colored, make a list for Santa and I chanced Nathan.

Christmas PJs

The kids slept in their Santa PJs and woke up in a good mood, so I took the opportunity to get a few pictures before they started fighting with each other.

Dentist Appointment

I took these babies to the dentist. Nathan's appointment was more of a meet and greet.  The dentist counted his teeth and watched him brush. Ava on the other hand....I thought we would get a clear bill of perfect teeth BUT nope. My babie has 3 cavities. I was in shock! She will need to get them filled. I had a one on one with the dentist because I just couldn't believe it. We brush teeth, she doesn't eat a lot of candy, no sodas, etc. The dentist ask what Ava's favorite foods/snacks were and asked about mine and Ryan's dental history. Well come to find out she takes after me! My mom said I had cavities AND Ava's favorite snack is yogurt and smoothies. Both of which are full of sugar, thick and bad for teeth. So no more for this household.

Cheer Pep Rally

Ava wrapped up her Fall Semester with a Pep Rally at school. I left work to attend and Gramps took off work to surprise Ava (he is the BEST). She was so excited to see us.

They were all set up in the gym when we got there. She was front and center. At 1st I thought, its probably because the is the tallest....but once they started I realized its because she knew all the moves! I was one proud Mommy. My baby was on point (well as much as you can be at 4), loud, and smiled the entire time. The performance lasted about 30 minutes. They were introduced, did jumps ("T", tuck and star), cheers/chants and a few dances. Ava totally rocked it! Afterwards they all received a certificate.
