Playdate

This is a first of many playdates with our friends from church. I love this outside playground! Avery has just as much fun as Alexandra does. Avery loves climbing on the steps and going down the slide. She also loves to climb through the tunnels. This group of kids play really well together and enjoy each others company. We look forward to our Friday playdates!

Neighborhood Carnival

We have been so busy at the Bowen Household that I am just now getting back to blogging. A couple of weeks ago the school in our neighborhood had a carnival that we decided to go to with our neighbors. Tucker and Alexandra had a great time! So did the baby sisters! Here are some fun pictures of the carnival. It was so nice we could just walk up to the school. The big kids rode in the wagon and the little ones in the stroller. Avery was not happy in the stroller so I wore her and she was happy being with mommy! I still love that I can wear her! It never fails I get so many comments on it. It is amazing how many people approach me when I wear Avery in my wrap. I don't know what I would do without it! We saw several of our neighbors at the carnival. Thanks to Richard and Misty for going with us. We look forward to next year's carnival!!

Alexandra's Field Day at School

Last Thursday was Field Day at Alexandra's school. There were several events. Alexandra had a wonderful time especially since she got to play outside for most of the day. Avery was clapping for her big sister, Go Red Team. All the kids got a ribbon after each race. Alexandra's favorite color ribbon was orange! Her teacher said the kids ate and napped well that day. I am sure they did because as much as they ran I was worn out watching them. I think Alexandra is going to be a great athlete.

Go Alexandra!!

Avery at 11 months

I am a little late on the post but I wanted to share some pictures of Avery at 11 months. I can't believe she will soon be one year old. Avery is always into something. Curious is her middle name these days. We are having to really child proof the house. She definitely keeps me on my toes. Enjoy!

Happy girl!


Avery loves to read books!
