Addison's Christmas Party

This year, Thomas and I were both able to attend Addison's school Christmas party.  Thank goodness for a very low key party where the kids do not go crazy!! They got to have a fruit kabob, pretzel sticks, and a juice, then they decorated a Christmas tree ornament, and then on to doing a book exchange with one of the other prek classes that is attached to Addison's room. It was a quiet, easy going time and the kids really enjoyed it!

Country Christmas

Addison had her Christmas recital for music on December 7th. They had a great variety show and then afterwards they had an awesome Country Christmas event. They had horse carriage rides, hot cocoa and cookies, decorate a cookie with Mrs. Claus, a live Nativity scene, animals to feed, really yummy wood oven pizza, and pictures with Santa. We had a really wonderful time and we hope that they will continue this great event next year!

Kendrick

This weekend we were able to go to Midland for the evening and see Tosha and Justin's sweet baby boy, Kendrick. He is the cutest little nephew EVER!! He was born November 28, 2012 @ 3:47 am. He weighed 7 lbs. 13 oz and was 21 inches long. We love him dearly and Thomas and I were back and forth holding him because we did not want to let him go. We were sad that we were not able to stay very long, but so happy that we had the the opportunity for a small amount of time to be with him. Can't wait for after Christmas to spend even more time with him! Also, I can't wait for Kendrick and Avett to grow up together and be sweet cousins!! Of course, as you can tell, Addison is the greatest big cousin and loves him so much! Congratulations Tosha and Justin! He is absolutely beautiful.

Much Love,

Bingo has officially returned to the Reynolds' Casa. He has an even bigger job this year, watching two kiddos instead of one. Luckily, Avett is a pretty easy job to take on and Addison is usually easy peasy too! Good family choice Bingo, we are happy you are here with us! Here are the first 5 days of Bingo's stay at our house. It looks like he has been enjoying himself and making himself right at home!

First Week of Daycare

Avett had his first almost full week of daycare last week! He did a really great job, mom, not so much!!! Right now everything seems to be going well and we like where he is.  He has two teachers, Ms. Livy and Ms. Austyn and one aid, Ms. Yolanda. They all seem very nice and sweet to our boy! He also had his 4 month check up this week and measured in at 16 lbs. 6 oz and 26 inches long (80th percentile for both). He also had his immunizations that caused him to have quite a negative reaction.  He went up to a 102.8 fever and did not come down until Friday night (shots were Thursday morning). He began to have drainage in his nose and left eye, therefore, no daycare on Friday. Doctor did not seem concerned unless it carried on to Monday, which it did not, thank goodness!! He is doing much better and off to daycare again this week we went.

Much Love,
