Catching up...

It's been a busy couple of weeks, but we haven't been up to anything too big, so I just have a lot of random pictures.

For Valentine's Day, Jon and Avery went to a Daddy/Daughter Dinner Dance. It was so adorable. He even brought her a corsage. She was more than excited. He was too. I so wished I could have been a fly on the wall, just to see all that cuteness...a bunch of sweet little princesses with their daddy's!! Avery's highlights of the night were eating lots of candy hearts and dancing to the Chicken Dance!

Around the house, Avery and Collin have been playing together more often. Actually, Avery just plays and Collin follows her around. Or Avery just pushes him around....

It snowed the other day! A whole 1/4 inch!!! The kids were so excited! Avery and I made a 4 inch snowman, Collin tried to catch snowflakes on his tongue, and Avery made snow angels. Then the snow melted about 20 minutes later...

Avery called me into the family room screaming one day that she was stuck. I came in to find this! Avery and Collin love to wrestle around, but Avery has about 2 more minutes until he's really going to be stronger than her...she better watch out!!

One of my favorite things to see is how Collin gets lost in books already. He will go to the bookshelf, grab a book, take it back to his seat, and "read"...then repeat over and over. So cute!!

Avery has really been using her imagination non-stop lately. Every night we are either a family of penguins or we are teachers and students. Heaven forbid I call her Avery at any point in any day anymore...."I'm not Avery, I'm big sister penguin"... Today she was playing princess ponies, so she decided to build a family of ponies from giant leggos. She's holding baby sister pony...

Collin has been feeding himself really well. He can even drink from a cup without the sippy lid (not that I am that big of a risk taker at home, but that's the only type of cups they use at his school). Of course he still has days where face painting with yogurt is just so much more fun...

Although we've been super busy, I finally got around to putting Collin's 1st year frame together! 10 months cracks me up!!
