Collin & Avery Funnies

5k & the FUN RUN

2008-05-16T19:38:00.004-05:00

My friend & I ran in a 5k. After the 5k, they had a 1 mile Fun Run. So my friend & I ran with the older boys & the dad's pushed the little ones in the stroller. Tony even passed us while pushing the stroller near the end. Collin got a little winded & we had to walk. :)

Christmas

2008-05-16T19:26:00.003-05:00

We had a great Christmas. The kids had lots of fun opening their presents and eating their candy. Of course Collin was the first one up & of course he woke up his sister. Then he had to patiently wait for us to get the camera's out & all of that good stuff. Avery ate tons of M&M's & smeared chocolate on the carpet (chocolate handprints that is). Oh well, it will eventually come out!

Collin's Birthday Party

2008-05-16T19:19:00.003-05:00

Collin wanted a sleepover for his birthday party. He's been planning his birthday for about 6 months & I'm not kidding when I say that! So we let him invite 5 friends to spend the night. They played Legos, had a Wii Bowling Championship, watched movies, ate pizza & cupcakes & ice cream, opened gifts, played pin the tail on the donkey, made a craft and decorated cookies. I kept them busy to keep my sanity! They actually all had a great time.

Thanksgiving in Utah

2008-05-16T18:57:00.008-05:00

We had a great time (as usual). We went to the Dinosaur Museum, High School Musical on Ice, had the kids pictures done, had a nice Thanksgiving meal & MORE. We were glad to go visit, but glad to come home to Tony & Stan. :)

Collin's T-ball

2008-05-16T18:49:00.004-05:00

Collin played Fall T-Ball again & LOVED it. He got to play on the same team as one of his friends in his class. He also played on the same team with a little boy a few houses down from us. He was very excited about playing with his 2 buddies.

Halloween at the Turner House

2008-05-16T18:43:00.002-05:00

It all sounded so much better in theory. I wanted Avery & Collin to coordinate in some way with their outfits. I knew that this year was the only year I would be able to do it because next year Avery would pick out her costume. So my choices were limited when Collin wanted to be Bobo-Fett from Star Wars. So Avery was Princess Leia (honey buns and all but she wouldn't wear the honey bun hat), & Stanley was Darth Vader.

Our Little Bulldog

2008-05-16T18:40:00.002-05:00

Game day is so much fun for us. The whole family gets on our Georgia Bulldog gear. We are definitely "fish out of water" living in Florida when it comes to football season!

Stanley

2008-05-16T18:28:00.005-05:00

Well we got a puppy. We had to put the cats to sleep. They were old & each were having problems. That day was hard but we (or I rather) survived. Anyways, our puppy is a beagle & is 6 weeks old. He's a little cutie. The kids & Tony just LOVE him & I tolerate him. He's a lot of work.

First Day Of Kindergarten!

2008-05-16T18:22:00.002-05:00

Collin was excited to start Kindergarten. His class has a little mouse & 2 frogs. He was very excited that they had class pets. :) When we got home from taking him to school, Avery was looking for him & kept pointing to the door saying "Col Col." She was so excited to see him when we went to pink him up.

Tony & the kids

2007-08-11T21:30:00.000-05:00

Party like a Rock Star

2007-08-11T21:28:00.000-05:00

Avery has discovered Collin's sunglasses. So now she wears them ALL THE TIME. It's so cute!

We are cooking Avery for dinner!

2007-08-11T21:02:00.000-05:00

Avery is constantly taking pots and pans out of the kitchen cabinets. I will "find" them in her little play kitchen, in the family room, in her room, you name it. Well on this day I found her sitting in front of the TV in the frying pan! :) She's so cute!

Camping Trip

2007-08-11T20:55:00.000-05:00

Tony decided to take Collin camping last weekend. The campground was not far from the house so Avery & I went to help them get set up. The campground had tent sites, cabins and tree houses. Tony asked Collin where he wanted to sleep & of course he said treehouse. When Avery & I left them, my car thermometer read 95 degrees - it was HOT! They had fun fishing, eating junk food & roasting hot dogs & smores. At 9:00 that night, I hear the laundry room door open & see Collin. They didn't even make it the night! Collin was playing with the flashlight & saw a bug in the treehouse & freaked out screaming that he wanted to go home. So Tony packed up & they came home.

Video Games

2007-08-11T20:46:00.002-05:00

Well it's no surprise that Collin loves video games seeing that his daddy loves them, but now AVERY is following in their footsteps!

Playing in the kitchen cabinets

2007-08-11T20:44:00.000-05:00

Collin and Avery love to hide in my kitchen cabinets. Here are some cute pictures of them playing.

4th of July

2007-08-11T20:23:00.000-05:00

Tony told Collin he would buy fireworks to set off for the 4th. So we took a trip to the Firework Stand and bought a huge box of fireworks. Collin was THRILLED. He was so excited to watch Dad set off fireworks.

Avery & her ear tube surgery

2007-08-11T20:14:00.000-05:00

Avery had tubes put in her ears the first part of July. She did great! She was very tired and cranky for a few days, but after that she was her usual busy little self. Big brother went on a vacation to Ocala for a few days to visit Nanny and Papa. He had a fun time & got to eat lots of ribs, hot dogs and drink Coke. ;)

Disney World - Magic Kingdom

2007-08-11T19:47:00.000-05:00

Mom and John took the kids & I to the Magic Kingdom in June after the Family Reunion. We had a BLAST. Collin rode ALL of the rides (even Space Mountain) and told me that he wanted to build a Space Mountain ride in the backyard. Avery was a little angel the whole day. The only time she freaked out was at lunch when the Winnie the Pooh characters made their rounds to our table. She got very upset and tried to kick Tigger! All in all we had a great time! :)

The new house!

2007-02-06T21:37:00.000-05:00

We found a house to buy in the same area that we were renting from. We LOVE it and can't wait to get into the new house. Collin has picked out which bedroom he wants and of course it's the biggest bedroom. Good thing Avery's not a little older or they would be fighting over who gets the biggest room. :)

Tennis anyone?

This is one of Avery's many cute outfits. :)

Sweet little Avery

2007-02-06T21:14:00.000-05:00

Here are a few cute pictures of Avery crawling around by Tony on New Years Day. She just LOVES her daddy!

Avery's 9 month bear pictures

2007-02-06T21:05:00.000-05:00

Santa Claus came to our house!!

2007-02-06T20:46:00.000-05:00

Collin was SOOOO excited on Christmas morning. He came in our room at 7:30am (we were dreading that he would wake up early) and said "I think Santa Claus was here." He patiently waited for us to get up & then he went to town opening up his presents. Avery was so cute while we opened presents. Santa brought her some new paci's in her stocking. So she sat there and tried to suck the pacifiers through the plastic case that they came in. It was so cute! Here are a bunch of pictures of Christmas morning.

'Twas The Night Before Christmas in the Turner House

2007-02-06T20:35:00.000-05:00

We had a little photo shoot by the tree & had the kids dress up in a nice outfit and then in their pj's and take some pictures. Just like before, Avery HATED the hat but tolerated the bow.

Unhappy Avery

2007-02-06T20:28:00.000-05:00

Tony got some free tickets from his work to go to a hockey game. It was a few days before Christmas, so I decided to dress Avery in her Christmas outfit. She was OK with all of it EXCEPT for the hat. She screamed & screamed. Once I put her bow in her head, she was fine. Collin thought he would be silly and wear the hat instead.

Video Game Mania

2007-01-13T19:53:00.000-05:00

Collin got a Star Wars Video Game for his birthday. He got it so that "My Dad and I can play a video game together." Here is a picture of Tony & Collin playing the game together.

Collin lost a tooth!!

2007-01-13T19:40:00.000-05:00

Collin's tooth has lost his first tooth. It told us a few weeks ago that his tooth felt loose. Then one afternoon, he says "Mom, I think I lost my tooth." Sure enough, he lost a tooth! He was so excited to put his tooth under his pillow for the tooth fairy!! :)

Avery's Coat

2007-01-13T18:51:00.000-05:00

Avery is so small and petite that her winter coat just swallows her up. It was in the 30's when these pictures were taken. She looked like Maggie Simpson. The coat was so top heavy that she after I sat her on the floor, she fell completely back. She couldn't get her balance. It was the funniest thing! Collin enjoyed watching this & kept sitting her up hoping she would fall back again. Well she figured out how to balance & didn't fall again.

Collin's Christmas Program

2007-01-13T18:41:00.000-05:00

Collin's class sang "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" at his school Christmas program. It was so cute! Here are some pictures of Collin & Avery before we left and some pictures of his performance. He is wearing the grey Rudolph shirt.

Pictures of Avery

2007-01-10T20:49:00.000-05:00

Here are a couple cute pix of Avery. The first 2 are of her sitting in her high chair with her leg all propped up. She LOVES to sit like that. It just shows her relaxed laid back personality.

The next 2 pictures are of Avery playing in the laundry basket.

Daddy's Girl

2007-01-10T20:41:00.000-05:00

Avery is turning into a little Daddy's Girl. She jsut LOVES her daddy. When she sees Tony, she gets all excited and waves her arms and squeals. It is so cute!

Collin's Birthday!!

2007-01-10T20:25:00.000-05:00

We just can't believe that Collin turned 5 this year! Where has the time gone? Collin started off his birthday by waking us up asking if he could open his presents. He got a Hot Wheels toy that he had been eyeing, some Star Wars figures, books, a DVD, a pair of Cowboy Boots, clothes, a Santa Claus hat and a gift card. He used his gift card to buy a Star Wars video game "so daddy and I can play a game together." Just like his daddy, he loves video games!

A little boy in Collin's class got some Cowboy Boots a couple months ago & ever since then all the boys in the class have wanted a pair. He wore his new Cowboy Boots to school & was very excited about that. Halfway through his school day, Avery and I showed up with cupcakes, drinks, Cars party hats and giftbags. We sang Happy Birthday and played some games. He had a great time celebrating his birthday with his class.

Avery's 8 month Bear pictures

2007-01-10T20:10:00.000-05:00

Here are Avery's 8 month Bear pictures. She is growing more and more each day.

The cousins at Thanksgiving

2007-01-10T20:02:00.000-05:00

Here are a couple pics from trip to Brian's house at Thanksgiving. Collin had so much fun with the cousins (especially John). He couldn't wait to see John and "play Star Wars with him."

Collin bungee jumping

2007-01-10T19:40:00.000-05:00

At Thanksgiving, we went to the mall and they had one of those indoor bungee jumps. Collin was **DYING** to try it & was begging and begging to do it. So I let him jump. He had a blast. Once he figured out how to do back flips, he just kept flipping and flipping. Afterward he told me that at first his tummy was a little nervous, but then it stopped & he had fun. Here are two 15 second video clips that I took with my camera along with some regular pictures from my camera.

Miss Leopard Princess

Our trip to The Zoo

2006-11-12T00:27:00.000-05:00

We got invited to go to the Zoo with a couple moms & kids from Collin's class. We had a great time. The boys all play together like they have been old friends. Collin has been bugging me nonstop to see if they can come over & play.

Here are some cute pictures of Avery crawling around.

The Jax Fair

2006-11-11T23:59:00.000-05:00

We took the kids to the Jacksonville Fair last weekend. It was very cold that night (in the 50's) so we had to break out our coats and bundle up. Avery was bundled up in so many layers and then wrapped in blankets. She looked so cute! Collin had a blast playing the cheesy games & riding the rides. Tony took him on some fast rides. When they got off Collin told Tony "that made my tummy a little nervous." It was cute. We also went and looked at all the animals and agricultural stuff. Collin got to shuck some corn (which he thought was pretty cool). We had a great time.

Halloween!!

2006-11-11T23:48:00.000-05:00

Collin was so excited for Halloween to come this year. His school had 2 Halloween parties (one on Monday & then one on Tuesday). He couldn't wait for Tony to get home to take him trick or treating. Collin wore his Spiderman costume and Avery went as a UGA Cheerleader. Avery stayed at home with me and passed out candy. Her bedtime is pretty early, so she wasn't up for much of the festivities. Once Collin filled up his bucket, they came home and we let Collin hand out candy to the kids.

Jacksonville Air Show

2006-11-11T23:36:00.000-05:00

The Blue Angels were in town for the Jax air show. The 4 of us went, but baby & I left after an hour or so. It was just way too hot out there and baby needed to go down for a nap. So Tony and Collin stayed and looked at all the planes & then watched the Blue Angels. Collin had a great time. Of course his favorite part was the toy airplane that Tony bought him. The airplane is a little replica Blue Angel plane. Collin refers to it as his "Blue Agent." I told him it was a "Blue Angel" and he sternly told me "No Mom, it's a BLUE AGENT."

Miss Sassy Pants sticks out her tongue

2006-11-11T23:25:00.000-05:00

Avery's latest tricks are to stick out her tongue. I think she just "found" her tongue and has learned how to stick it out. It is too cute!! She will also make a snorting noise by blowing air very enthusiastically thru her nose. We have made it a little game where we will do the snort noise to her and then she does it back, etc. It's always cute when she "starts" the game because she will have this cute little smirk on her face. It cracks us up!! She also likes to shake her head no. We will ask her a question and she will shake her head no - TOO CUTE!!

Our Little Georgia Bulldogs

2006-11-11T23:11:00.000-05:00

Our family was all decked out for the big Georgia Florida Football Game. We went to Sam's Club prior to the game starting and everyone kept commenting on how cute Avery was in her cheerleader outfit. Her bow is just adorable and arrived from Nana JUST in time to be worn on gameday. A few people came up to me and said "She sure is cute but would look even cuter in a little Florida Gator outfit." I told them that her daddy would not allow her to wear anything in blue and orange.

Collin's first day of school (again!)

2006-11-11T23:01:00.000-05:00

Collin has started school!! I found a PreK for Collin to go to. He goes to school Monday thru Friday for 3 hours per day. He LOVES it. His class has 10 kids and 8 of them are boys. He was so excited to be in a class full of boys!! He loves his teacher and has made so many friends. Prior to Collin's first day, the teacher told the kids that there would be a new student and his name was Collin, etc. So on his first day, the kids were all like "Collin come sit with me" and introducing themselves, etc. It was so cute! A few of the moms told me that their child had been telling them "Collin will be starting school in a few days."

His teacher "evaluated" him and said that he is in an advanced group for reading as well as math. She was also impressed that he knows all of his letters, the sounds they make and that he is trying to form the words to read. Tony and I were very excited to hear that news. :)

Pumpkin Patch pictures

2006-11-11T22:44:00.000-05:00

The kids and I went to Ocala to see Nanny & Papa for a few days. We had a great time visiting. While we were there, we went to a little pumpkin patch. I didn't get very many "good" pictures of the kids as neither of them wanted to smile, or naturally when was was looking the other wasn't, etc. But needless to say, here is what I was able to get.

Sweet and Adorable

2006-11-11T22:37:00.000-05:00

These are some of my favorite pictures of our Little Princess. She was busy showing off her moves crawling and standing up. She has the cutest little smiles and expressions. We just love her so much!!! There's not a day that goes by where Collin doesn't say "our baby is cute" or "she is adorable" or "she is a little darling" and he is right - she is ALL of those things!!!

Miss Priss is standing up & crawling!!!

2006-11-11T22:31:00.000-05:00

Well it sure didn't take long for Avery to figure out how to crawl and stand up. She officially started crawling at 6 1/2 months. About a week later she started standing up. We think that she will be walking at Christmas. Her little crawl is so cute. She tucks one leg under and then uses the other leg to push off. Collin loves that she is crawling, but it brings on new issues. She likes to crawl to his toys & "play" with them. Collin doesn't really like her messing with his stuff (sometimes). But I think he loves to take it away from her and get onto her for playing with his toys. He is really good about putting away "choke toys" which are toys that baby could choke on. I will hear him say something like "No baby, that is a choke toy & you aren't allowed to play with it." It is cute. He is so protective of her.

St. Augustine

2006-11-11T22:28:00.000-05:00

Our first weekend in Jacksonville we went to St Augustine for the day. We had a great time. It was nice to be together as a family since the kids & I had not seen Tony for a month. We really love living in Jacksonville as there is so much to see and do. We can't wait until the spring/summer when we can go to the beach!

Avery's 6 month bear pictures

2006-11-11T21:57:00.000-05:00

Here is Avery's 6 month bear pictures. She is growing so fast!! She weighed in at a whopping 15 lbs 8 oz at her dr's visit. Which puts her in the 50th percentile for height & weight. Her pediatrician said she was "not too small and not too big" and I add "she's just right." I think she's a little keeper. She had to get 2 shots and Collin was so upset that she was getting shots. He didn't go to the appt since he was in school, but just knowing that she had to get shots made him cry. The dr was impressed that she is sitting on her own and especially impressed that she can get in the sitting position by herself. We just KNOW that she's going to be crawling real soon. She LOVES her mommy and hates to be away from me for even a second. She's my sweet little shadow.

Collin's going away party

2006-11-11T21:52:00.000-05:00

Our playgroup threw Collin a going away party before we moved. We took some pictures of the kids as well as a picture of all the siblings. We are really going to miss our playgroup, but we know we will see many of them when we go back to GA to visit.

All of the siblings.

Collin and his "girl friend" Kendall. Kendall cried for a couple hours when she found out Collin was moving. Her grandparents live in FL, so they come to FL all the time. We've already made arrangements to meet up with them soon.

Trip to see the cousins

2006-11-11T21:46:00.000-05:00

We just couldn't leave GA without going to TN to see the cousins before we moved. We had a great time visiting over the weekend. I hardly ever saw Collin because all he did was play with the kids.

Last visit to the Georgia Aquarium

2006-11-11T21:42:00.000-05:00

Before we left GA, we had to make one last trip to the GA Aquarium. We went with our good friends from Collin's playgroup. Avery was so excited seeing all the animals in the aquariums. Collin had a great time with his good friend Kendall.

Farm Day

2006-11-11T21:40:00.000-05:00

Collin's school had "Farm Day" right before we moved. They had lots of games for the kids to do as well as crafts. Everyone was to dress up like a farmer. Collin had lots of fun.

Little Princess

2006-10-18T20:05:00.000-05:00

These pictures are by far some of the most adorable shots of Avery I have taken. Her little expressions are just too cute. She is such a happy little baby & she truely spends most of her day just happy as can be & smiling.

House For Sale

2006-10-18T20:02:00.000-05:00

Collin told me the following one morning on the way to school: "Mom, when I get home from school, I'm going to make a sign that says "House For Sale" and walk around the neighborhood saying "House For Sale." It was so cute. I guess he had heard Tony & I talking about how we hope the house will sell.

Silly brother & sister

2006-10-18T20:01:00.000-05:00

Collin likes to pretend to be a baby when he is next to Avery. Hence the silly look on his face.

Collin's Sleepover

2006-10-18T19:55:00.000-05:00

Collin has been dying to have a sleepover for the past several months. Well since we were moving, I figured it would need to be done before we moved since it would be awhile until we were settled & had made friends. So I took Collin & his friend Harvey to the fair & then to dinner. The boys had so much fun riding the rides & eating cotton candy. It was so cute to watch. I let them stay up late & watch Star Wars. At one point, Harvey was playing around & got hurt. He started crying for his mommy. At that point Collin is telling him "My mommy is here, you'll be ok." And then Collin turns to me and says "MOM HE CAN'T LEAVE THE SLEEPOVER." It was so funny!

Pretty in PINK

Solid Foods

2006-10-18T19:26:00.000-05:00

Avery has been dying to eat solid foods. Everytime she would watch us eat, she would stare intensely & then get all excited thinking we were going to feed her. So I decided to go ahead & give her some rice cereal. She knew exactly what to do. So far I have fed her rice cereal, prunes, applesauce, sweet potatoes, green beans, peas, butternut squash, zucchini, pears, peaches, avocado, oat bran, soy yogurt and oat bran. She loves all of it!

Avery's 5 month bear pictures

2006-10-11T03:56:00.000-05:00

These pictures make Collin laugh so hard. He says that "Avery is trying to eat her Cinderella bear." Avery is just getting more & more animated & growing bigger every second. :)

Weekend trip to Jacksonville

2006-10-11T03:50:00.000-05:00

These are the pics we took from our weekend trip to Jacksonville to check out the city. Collin's favorite part of the trip was the indoor pool at the hotel.

Our trip to UTAH

2006-08-12T09:54:00.000-05:00

The kids & I went to Utah for 8 days. We had such a great time. We
drove down to Provo and had lunch with Carrie, Brandon & Stacie.
Then we went to Anna's and visited with Anna & Abbie the day before
they left for Brazil. Collin got to ride 3 ponies at the Thanksgiving Point Petting Zoo plus another pony at Gardner Village. Another day we scoured the city looking for obnoxiously cute baby hairbows - we were very successful as you can see. We went to a children's storytime in the park another day. All in all we had a great time. We can't wait to go back!!

2006-08-12T09:40:00.000-05:00

Here are Avery's 4th month bear pictures. She is growing so fast!!!

Here is the Mad Face pose that Collin made famous. I have been trying

for several weeks to get a picture of her doing Mad Face. But I never

seemed to be able to catch it. I caught her in full made face in this

shot!!

We have a Roller.....

Avery can now roll from tummy to back. It is so cute to watch. She is

SOOOO close to being able to roll from back to tummy, but she's not

quite there yet. Collin is always trying to "help" her by giving her a

little nudge (more like a push).

Collin & Avery

Collin is always asking to hold baby & take our picture. He just loves his little sister.

Avery saw herself in the mirror tonight at bathtime. It was SO sweet! She was smiling & all excited at herself!!

Trying to rollover

2006-07-11T20:31:00.000-05:00

Avery has really been trying to rollover lately. If she would just flip

her head & legs a little more, she could probably do it. Here are a

couple pictures of her trying to do it.

Here are some pictures that we took tonight.

Brother & Sister

2006-06-23T20:23:00.000-05:00

These 2 pictures are a couple of my new favorite pictures. I really

think you can tell how much Collin loves his sister in both of them. He

just adores her. It is so sweet. With as much kisses & hugs that

she gets from Collin, she takes it very well & never complains. He

calls her "pretty princess" or "little pumpkin." He (& we) just

can't get enough of Avery. She is starting to smile whenever she sees

his face & "talk" to him. It is sweet. She is just a sweet little

snuggler princess. Whenever she cries, he will sing "Rock-a-bye Baby" to her or he will tell her "don't cry baby, it's ok - be happy."

Avery - 13 weeks

2006-06-23T20:16:00.000-05:00

Here are a few pictures I took today of Avery. This was right before

& during her afternoon nap today. She is starting to look more

& more like Collin everyday. The last picture is of Collin when he

was a baby. You can definitely tell that they are brother & sister!!

Pictures from our Florida Trip

2006-06-23T20:05:00.000-05:00

The kids and I packed up the minivan and headed down to Florida a

couple weeks ago. We spent a few days visiting Nanny & Papa in

Ocala. We went to Orlando for a day and visited the Clifton's. Then we

drove to my friends house in Boca Raton & visited my friend for a

few days. My friend has 2 boys (1 older than Collin & 1 younger

than Collin) so the boys played, swam & had a great time. We drove

back to Ocala & stayed a few more days before coming home. We had a

great time visiting everyone.
