Avery's Last Day of Pre-School

Now that we have our computer and internet back up and running, I can finally get caught up with all of our pictures. Here are some from Avery's last day of pre-school. As emotional as she is, Avery was not upset, in the least, to be done with pre-school! She knew that it meant she was moving on to kindergarten and she could not be more excited about it!!!!

We Are Big Kids Now!

I am very proud to announce that Sierra is officially potty trained!! We have been working on it for the last several weeeks, but last week it just clicked. She is now wearing her Dora and Ariel underwear all day and she goes all by herself whenever she needs to. She still wears a Pull-Up at night, although I'm not sure why because she is dry every morning. She even got up the other morning and went potty all by herself and then went right back to bed. So I am sure we will be ditching the Pull-ups any day now! Yeah Sierra!!

Avery also had a good weekend last week. At soccer, she scored seven goals! She was so excited. I did think to try to get her to pass the ball to her teammates but they just kind of stood there, so I just let it go. We did explain the term "Ball Hog" afterwards.

Then, on Sunday, she tried riding her bike without the training wheels! She did great for her first time! Her balance needs a little work. And we have a little bit of a focus problem. She was more interested in watching butterflies and bugs fly around, than paying attention to what she was doing. But she had fun and she didn't fall, so I think we might be trying again soon.

Avery's Kindergarten Carnival

Last weekend, Avery had a Carnival at her new Kindergarten. They have it every year to welcome the incoming class and say good-bye to kids going off to First grade. It was lots of fun! There was a Bounce House and tons of games and activities where the girls won so mant great prizes. Avery got her face painted and both her and Sierra got balloon animals from a silly clown. And we all had some yummy popcorn, hot dogs, and sno-cones. We had a great time!
