Well I haven't posted in quite a while...I know....but part of the reason is that our camera has been out of commission for at least 2 weeks. Had a little incident and it drowned in Diet Dew. Oops...don't ask!! Anyway, new camera is ordered and hopefully we'll get it soon so we can start taking more pictures of our growing little girl! Speaking of her...Ashlyn has been somewhat of a little spit fire lately. She is happy one minute and the next not so much. She had gotten a cold about a week ago so she may not have been feeling well and then we noticed that she was getting 4 of her molars in at once! This girl likes cutting teeth in multiples of 4, which is not fun! She seems to be doing better now and is basically over the cold so hopefully we'll continue on a more happy road :) We're still making progress in the walking department but haven't took off running yet. Occassionally she will try to stand up on her own in the middle of the floor but then falls to her bum. She cruises along furniture and walks between the couches and I even caught her taking her hands off the couch the other day and she actually took a step without hanging on. So maybe she'll walk eventually!! I think she thinks crawling is working just out just fine and is content with that. Last weekend we went to Colby's H.S. football game in Altoona and got to try out our winter gear. Ashlyn stayed nice and toasty all bundled up and even fell asleep and took a little snooze during the game. Everyone said she was so good just sitting on our laps and then falling asleep! She did do very well. Then on Saturday mom, Ashlyn, and Auntie Stacy and Kayla headed up to the Cities to meet cousin Kim and the twins! We went to the MOA and visited...it was great to see them...Ashlyn and the twins had fun looking and pointing at each other and babbling whatever it was that they were saying :) So it was a very nice weekend!
3 sweet little girls! Mya, Isabella, & Ashlyn. I don't think Mya and Ashlyn know what to think about their new baby cousin!
Ashlyn turned 15 months old last week and that mean time to go back to the Dr. Amazingly the shots and whatnot didn't go too bad. She keeps getting better and better with those as she gets older. She weighed in at 24 lbs 12 oz (75th percentile) and was 32 inches long (90th percentile). So still on track where we've been for months. The pediatrician said she looked perfect. We are so lucky for that!!!! Ashlyn has been taking off walking more and more over the last couple weeks, but "walking" on her knees and crawling is still her preferred method of transportation (or in mommy's arms)! She is been a little babbler the last week too and 2 nights ago we could have sworn that she said "shotzy" as she pointed at her...it sure sounded darn close!! Mom and Dad are heading to Mexico for a little vacation this Saturday and we miss our little girl already, but we know she will have an awesome time at Uncle Darrin & Aunt Stacy's and with Grandma Debbie!
