Avery made it through his first day yesterday. he doesn't go back till next Monday and he will be there every day from then on.(hallelujah) When I picked him up yesterday, I asked him how his day went and he said that it was the best first day of kindergarten EVER. He can't remember any of the teachers or the friends names or even where he is suppose to go when he goes back on Monday. The one thing he does remember is that he can have chocolate milk EVERY day for lunch.( hooray). oh to be a kid again!!

so today is a great day !!! All I have at home now is Tellis. Avery started school this morning and he was soo excited and as you see so am I. I hope Avery does fine at school. We have been having a problem the past couple of weeks with him. He thinks EVERYONE gets on his nerves and just wants everyone to leave him alone. I have been telling him all this time ," just because people get on your nerves doesn't mean you can yell at them or choke them or even think about doing any of those things". He tells me he will count to 10 before he does any of that. So needless to say I am sitting at home waiting for the teachers to call me. Chris and Bailey were the picked on and now Avery and Tellis are the bullies. I guess you can't win for loosing. wish me luck!!

Saturday my sis Caitlin and me and my boys went with the Quillers to something that we thought was a cool free thing put on by McDonald's. it was free and it was cool, but this is the only part of McDonald's that was there.

As we stood in the lines for the rides we listened and could hear church music playing.Casey started looking at the handout they gave us and seen the 50 or so churches that were sponsoring this. We stayed till about 11:30 when they put a stop to all the rides and decided to do an ILLUSIONS show. It was time to go. As we were leaving people were flocking in to see this. Casey stayed for the first half until she realized it was really a revival. yea not our cup of tea so needless to say they left as well. The boys enjoyed the snow cones and popcorn and of course the rides. (Now that I think about it I should have been tipped off to what it really was when we saw the big thing you climb in and bounce in , it was a church with a cross on the top). Any way it got us out of the house. It was fun Casey!!

PUZZZZLES



So Avery has these 5 puzzles and no one ever wants to help him put them together because they are all dumped into this box together. Irwin gives up once and a while and does one with him as he gripes at the end because one piece is always missing. I got to sleep in this morning because it is Irwin's day off and I get up andIrwin and the boys have done all the puzzles together and boy was Avery proud.

Our New addition( and it's a girl)


Bailey decided he wanted a hamster or a fish, so ofcourse every time the boys want something and they have to ask permission for it, they ask me and if I am ok with it I tell them to ask Irwin. Ofcourse he can't make anything simple, so he tells them to write a letter telling him why they think they deserve this. Anyway Bailey ended up taking care of our dog Harry for a little while to show us how he could do. So this is our new addition and It will all be ok as long as it stays in it's cage!!!( Chris has already threatend to squish it.)
