Averi & Alexxa's Christmas Performance

So I thought I would take a video of Averi performing some of her preschool Christmas program songs and sayings, but Alexxa decided to steal the show with her moves!  She just cannot stay still when there is music playing:)

A Typical Evening with Alexxa

A typical evening with Alexxa Riley includes her dancing, showing her brother some love, and driving her sister crazy:)

Maddox Charles is 3 Months Old Already!

The Amstutz's Are Ready for the ND BCS Game on January 7

Christmas Cookie Time

A few weeks ago the Amstutz's made Christmas cookies with the Schroeder's at Grandma Tana and Grandpa Dan's house.  We had so much fun and made a huge mess!

Breakfast with Santa and The Little Mermaid Cast!!!!

A few weeks ago we took Averi to East Noble High School's Disney's Little Mermaid Jr. play! It was amazing! The costumes were real Broadway play costumes and if you closed your eyes it sounded just like the Little Mermaid Movie (one of my favorites!) Averi loved it! The next weekend we went to Breakfast with Santa at the High School and The Little Mermaid characters were there. Jack ad Sam went too! We got lots of pictures with Santa and the characters. Check them out!

Averi while Arial is being introduced to the Breakfast! She was so excited:)

Averi and Luke with Ursula's Eel's!  Averi's eyes look like she is one of them!

Averi with her favorite character Princess Arial of course:)

Averi also got to meet Flounder, Sebastian, and Scuttle! 

Samantha, Averi, and Jack with Santa!

Last but not least, Averi with Santa.  When she finally got to meet him, she froze up and did not tell him what she wanted for Christmas!  Silly little girl:)

We had a great time at both events! A big thanks to Grandma Heather and Grandpa Dan for watching the little ones why we were out and about!

This is what we found when we got back from Breakfast with Santa! They love their Grandpa Dan!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Averi's Halloween School Party...Then Back to School

     I got to go to Averi's Halloween Party at School on November 1st!  It was so much fun.  Her classmates and her were adorable in their costumes:) 
     I am back to work now so this was my last chance to get to volunteer at her school and I loved every minute of it.  I am back at school now and it is going great!  Everybody has adjusted well, and Maddox, the little angel, started sleeping through the night!  Here are some pictures of Averi's party.

Averi having some Halloween treats.

Averi not looking so happy, though I promise she is...just caught her at a bad time:)

Mommies wrapping the little mummies up in toilet paper game...the little girl mummies won!  Yeah, girls rock!

Averi and her friends:)

The kids doing the skeleton dance...using the smart board!  Love technology!  Averi informed me today that she does not have a brain...just a skeleton:)  She is still figuring it all out:)

Alexxa & Maddox Just Hanging Out

Aunt Jessie & the Kiddos!

Aunt Jessie came to visit from Texas!  It was so wonderful!  We love our Aunt Jessie:)

...of course we couldn't get a picture with all the kids together with her:)  Thank you for all the wonderful gifts Aunt Jessie, but most of all we loved getting to spend time with you!  Love you!

Little Hunter

Maddox the little hunter...Daddy cannot wait to take him hunting!  Luke is going to have Averi out there soon I have a feeling!  If she will go:)

Averi & The Very Hungry Caterpillar Video

Averi loves "reading the pictures" of books! In this video she is reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle:)

The Girl's Love Their Little Brother!

Averi & Alexxa cannot get enough of their Little Bro! I totally thought they would have a hard time adjusting to him getting a lot of attention, but instead they just think he is the coolest!  They seem to be more jealous of each other getting time with mom and dad:) Here is some proof that they love their baby brother:)
