Swimming Class

Every winter we put the girls in swim classes just so they can stay familiar with the water. So, when it comes time to go swimming at Grammie's they are READY!!!! This was the first time the girls were not in the same class. Acelynn was still in Water Babies and Ava moved up to Fin Buddies. Next winter Ava will be in the water all by herself (aka no parent in the water).

Ava jumping into the pool to start class!

One new thing Ava got to do in her class was to jump off the diving board!! At first she didn't want to, but after seeing all the other kids do it, she wanted to try it!!

Waiting for her turn!

Walking out with her noodle!

Ava got a little scared so I had to walk out the rest of the way with her!

Ava jumping/me dropping her in!

She like it at first and want to jump again, but when we got to the end to jump she changed her mind. That is something we can work on this summer at Grammie's house!!!

Acelynn's Big girl bed!!!

Here are the pictures of Acelynn in her Big Girl bed!!!

Right after daddy put it together and made it!!!

Sleeping in it....

She has been doing awesome sleeping in her new bed. We are now to the point of taking naps and going to bed without too many issues. And getting out of bed hasn't been that big of a deal. Since we bought the bed we had to do some rearranging. The big dresser went into Ava's room because there wasn't enough room for that and the bed, so we bought 2 drawers to go under the bed for the storage we lost from the dresser. It has worked out great so far!!!!

Acelynn's Birthday Party

On Saturday March 12th, we had family and friends over for Acelynn's 2nd birthday. She wanted an Elmo theme.

Her Elmo cupcake cake and her scrapbook

I decided to make a back drop for her for when she opened presents. It turned out good since Elmo was my first try with cutting vinyl on my Cricut. It was pretty easy with the help of my neighbor Sam!


Opening presents!!!

A guitar from Papa Steve!!

A Little People horse trailer from the Womble's. Oh how we love Little People!!!

Posing with her Elmo cake. Not what I had pictured in my mind, but you got the point. I will not be decorating anymore cakes anytime soon!!!

Blowing out her candle!!!

Cupcake eating time!!!!

YUM!!!!!!!

Ava, Cameron & Acelynn eating their cupcakes!!!

We had a great time with our family and friends. Acelynn got a lot of new toys, clothes and books. Mommy & Daddy bought her a BIG girl bed, but it was not shipped in time for her party! Pictures to follow soon!
