Grandparents Day

Friday was Grandparent's Day at Arlington. Allie was so excited to have the grandparents come to school. The kids did a little program and the grandparents visited their classroom. Chris' mom came and my parents came too. My niece and nephew that live in Alabama were on Spring Break, so they came down with my parents. We were really glad to see them. The weather was terrible! It rained the whole weekend, so we really didn't do anything but hang aroung our house. I got some good pictures if the kids with grandparents. (Thanks to Jackie.) I actually forgot my camera, but she let me use hers.

Anna took a cute one of Allie and Avery.

Times Are Changing

So I can't believe Avery is 2 and 1/2 already. She has been asking for a big girl bed. So, I decided to take the rail off her crib. So she was very excited about her "big girl bed". Which is actually the same bed, but with a small rail. Anyway, She has done really well. She went right to sleep the first night. It was kind of weird for me the next morning. I heard her wake up and then in one minute she was standing in front of me, very proud of herself. She didn't take a nap today, but she stayed in her bed until I told her she could get up! We will see if that lasts. I am sure in a few days she will realize she can get up and ask for water, potty, to get in our bed, and all the other things her sister asks for. We will hope she continues to do well.

All ready for bed

Silly faces!

She asked if Allie could sleep with her. "No way"

Don't you just love sleeping children? These are some of my favorite pictures. They look so sweet and peaceful.

Update

I thought I would give some updates about what is going on here in the King house. Allie's cheerleading has ended for the year. She is enjoying kindergarten and I can't believe it is almost over. I am amazed at how much she is learning. Avery is now potty trained! We are very happy about that, but now we have to visit every bathroom in every store. We are about to make her crib into a big girl bed. She is growing so fast. Chris has been really busy with school lately. Arlington boys and girls basketball teams won the state tournament this year. We were all very excited about that. But the biggest news is that we will be having another baby in October! We are all very excited about this too. Please keep us in your prayers.
