Cowboy Day and Mismatch Day

Today was "Cowboy Day" at Andrew's preschool! Wearing a hat borrowed from his Aunt Amy, Andy was ready to go :)

Andy makes a darn cute little cowboy!

As Spirit Week continues, today is mismatch day for Avery. I think she did just fine - nothing matches!

Crazy Hair Day!

It's Spirit Week at Abiding Word School! Yesterday was jammie day and I forgot to take a picture :( But, today is way better - Crazy Hair Day!! I put 12 piggy tails all over Avery's head with different colored rubber bands and put different colored clips on each one. Then I braided each one. We had to get up extra early for all of this!! Anyway, she loves it and here are pictures from school this morning:

Front view

Back view!

I told Avery that it might be a bit painful taking out all of those rubber bands later :) Watch out tomorrow - it is mis-match day and that should be another fun one!

6 Months, but who's counting??

Wow! It's been almost 6 months since I posted pictures, so this is a VERY LONG post - Enjoy! Isn't it odd that I found out that I was pregnant and haven't posted since then? Coincidence? I think not :)

Here is Avery helping me make french bread pizzas for dinner one night!

Andrew and his goofy mask!

Here is Avery and the pumpkin she picked to take home.

One guess as to who it is behind the pumpkin........

(It's Andy, but you should have known that!)

We finally went to the downtown aquarium! Here are Avery and Andy posing with an owl.

Waiting for the train at the aquarium.

And now it's Andrew's turn :)

And Avery! You can see the freeway behind her :)

Avery and Daddy on a ride - it took you up to the top and kept dropping you down over and over. Andrew would NOT ride it!

Avery and "Edward Scissorhands". Yet another picture that Andrew would NOT be a part of!

Posing in the hay and pumpkins :)

Andrew's first day of preschool! He went to the KO preschool last year and will "graduate" this year!

A quick picture with Avery before she had to go off to school herself.

Andrew at AW's Fall Festival - he is a Ghostbuster!

Forget the inflatable proton pack - Daddy had to make him one that looked more like the real thing!

Miss Hannah Montana herself!

Here she is performing :)

Andrew playing a game at the festival.

I believe this was our first fire of the season and Andrew is fresh from the bath enjoying it!

Early November - Avery lost her first tooth! Daddy was at school, so mommy had to suck it up on this one!

Avery at the Hannah Montana concert in November. Thank goodness Wade took her!! She was ultra excited :)

Here she is showing off her Hannah Montana tattoo.

Rocking out as only a 6 year old can.....

Making a funny face for Daddy!

More jammin to Hannah Montana!

Andrew can fall asleep when you least expect it! Here's a nap on the couch.

Oops! Avery was asleep too!

Andy and Nathan chillin out!

Just a cute pic of my favorite nephew :)

Since Avery got to go to the Hannah Montana concert, Daddy took Andrew to a big car show. Here he is posing in front of a cool car!

This was probably Andy's favorite - the actual "Bumblebee" from the Transformers movie!

Another favorite - Lightning McQueen from Cars!

And now for Daddy's favorite - a Delorean!

Christmas time! Andrew posing in front of the tree.

And now Avery :)

This picture went out on our Christmas greeting.

This is just plain CUTE. We watched Nathan on a Saturday morning while Rob was at work and Jen took Avery and Sadie to Christmas practice at church. Uncle Wade hogged the little guy!

Tooth #2 for Avery! Daddy worked long and hard to get this one out. The new one was already halfway in!

Avery and Andrew are all ready for Aunt Amy and Jan-Morgan's rehearsal dinner! Don't they look adorable?

Ok - I think I am pretty much caught up for now! This took almost 2 hours to do, so I think I will try to stay more caught up in the future :)
