This is how I roll...

This is Averys outfit the second week of pre~school...
We all woke up late that morning and I was SCRAMBLING to find something for this poor child to wear. I grabbed this shirt, threw it on her and she looks at me and says, "I get to wear pirates today?!" LOL! I said YES! If only you could have seen the pure excitement on her face!

In the bottom of this picture you can see Tito licking her hand :) This is a rare occasion and am happy it was caught on camera!
Avery GQ pose is entertaining to say the least.
LOVE you Aves c:

Going Private

Sunday Morning Thoughts

Harley left for Florida on Thurs. morning...
I'll admit I wasn't super excited about him going on this trip; mostly because of the whole idea of riding a motorcycle across the country bit ;)...

This little girl loves her daddy so much....it's been rough on her without him :(

It's been only a LITTLE different without Harley around. I'm doing a big project while he's away to keep myself busy...I'll post pics when I'm done! (If I can get it done in a week)

I'm really happy fall is here! I'm ready to start playing Christmas music! (don't judge, I know it's early and lame) but, I have so much to be thankful for and this time of year always reminds me of that!

My Little Scientist

Last week Avery had her first day of pre~school and they played the 'hot lava' game...

Harley has been wanting to re~create a Volcano with Avery for a while now so........
We did it! I went outside and got some dirt wet, dug it up, put it in
a casserole dish, brought it inside and molded it in the shape
of a volcano...

Here's the masterpiece! I added baking soda, vinegar, dish soap, and red and yellow food coloring. Avery FREAKED out when this thing started bubbling.
Then I touched it and she REALLY freaked out! SO funny! She kept screaming 'You're
going to get BURNED!
I love that she's in pre~school and learning so much...
I love her :)

Bitter Sweet!

Avery started pre~school today!!

My little girl is getting so big.
She was really excited to get to go to school!

Here she is in front of her pre~school with her bff, Kensie :)

Now it begins :'(...They grow up WAY too fast.

I think it's time to start a 'school work' folder, yeah?
I need to keep track of all her wonderful papers and accomplishments!

Learning about FoSsiLs!

Aves is CONVINCED you look through Binoculars through the large end.
.
Crazy kid :)
.

....So, one of Avery's Dinosaur library books has different 'experiments' you can do to 're~create' certain things pertaining to Dinosaurs...

So, we decided to re~create how fossils were/are formed :)
SAFETY FIRST!
(she loves magnifying glasses)

Following the steps in her library book

The look of pure concentration..

On to digging some holes to bury the sponges...

We'll dig them up in 2~3 days to find them solid as rocks with a 'crystal~like' appearance to them..

...At least that's what the book says :)...
Like her apron?? We got it at The Dollar Tree.

I'm helping because she's awesome and I love her ;)

I love how excited Aves gets to learn/try new things. She's so busy that it can be difficult at times to keep her from getting bored...but, it's amazing at what entertains them :)

Averys New Back Pack

When you decide to have children you really don't think of the things that they're going to like/enjoy. What they're going to be interested in doesn't really cross your mind. You're more concerned that they're going to come out with ten fingers and ten tones and all their vital organs working properly...

.

I ended up with this....a complete Dinosour JuNkIe!

Aves is starting pre~school the week after Labor Day and needed a back pack...

I went out to my parents so my mom could tag along.

We found ourselves at Target...upon entering the store I wasn't sure what to expect...then again it's going shopping for Avery where one never 'really' knows what to expect.

My mom and I showed Avery every pink/girl back pack they had and ZERO reaction from Avery. Until... I showed her THIS back pack! She yelled literally 'I WANT THAT ONE!!!'

It was Awesome. She is AWESOME~
Love you Avery. You'll make a believer of me yet!
