My accomplishments: I can say dog and banana, but only when I want to. I wave bye bye, and give headbutts, I run, I can climb down the stairs, I like to think I can eat with a spoon. I can screw and unscrew loose tops. I like to bounce on beds and pillows and have had my fair share of bumps and bruises. I think it's fun to spin around in circles until I fall over. Mommy's most happy that I'm a big little girl who no longer nurses and sleeps consistently from 6:30pm to 7:00am and yes I still take my nap sometimes 2 of them.

Ashley's 1st Birthday Party

Ashley is a little girl who loves, loves, loves her teddy bear Troy. So we had to have a teddy bear picnic to celebrate her turning 1. We had the party on Saturday. We had sandwiches, teddy grahams, gummi bears, teddy bear picnic cupcakes, and Ashley had her own mini teddy bear cake. Of course the party was held outside at a park. She made it through lunch then was done! She cried through the pictures, she cried while singing and stopped just for a moment to taste the cake, then it continued. We didn't even try to open presents there, we did that at home after she took a nap. We had fun though and thank you to everyone who came to celebrate with us. We can't believe that she's no longer a baby but a toddler.

Sticker Frenzy

Rachel loves to put stickers on Ashley and this particular afternoon waiting for dinner Ashley was only in a diaper- the perfect sticker canvas.



While going through pictures I came across this one taken when Ashley was only 2 days old!
