The Munchkin Is 1!!

I can't believe it has been an entire year, the time has went by so fast that I am amazed. Ashley has been a wonderful addition to our family and we couldn't imagine loving anyone more.
Here is just a little look back at Ashley's first year.

1st Thanksgiving

Well, Ashley enjoyed her first Thanksgiving with some turkey and she even tried some mashed potatoes and cranberries.
But, Thanksgiving was here and gone and we had to spend the rest of the weekend getting all those last minute birthday items. The count down is on, Ashley's birthday will be here in less than a week!


I love this picture, she has a look like what on earth am I supposed to do with this. Of course she didn't eat the leg, but we thought she would look cute holding it!!





And Savannah was standing by just in case she dropped it.

Poor, Poor Izzy

Ashley is obsessed with Izzy's cage. Here she is tyring to coax Izzy in.

Then here they are sitting together. Shawn took these pictures so you can see Izzy looking back at me like "please Mom, I don't want to go in there". And then like always it ended with Ashley trying to get in Izzy's cage herself.

Again, I have to state, thank god Izzy is a patient and loving dog!

Happy Birthday Alex

This past Saturday was our neighbor Alex's first birthday. Ashley and Alex are exactly 2 weeks apart in age and the really funny part about that is that Alex's mommy Suzie and I had due dates that were exactly 2 weeks apart and then both had our babies 10 days early. Not that either of us were complaining, I say as soon as it is healthy get those babies out of there!

So, Shawn, Ashley and I went to Alex's birthday party.

They played a little.

Then Alex being the gentleman that he is gave his lady a ride, no woman of his will have to walk.

And Ashley was more than happy to get a ride.

Just Like Daddy

No posts lately because Ashley has been sick all week. It started Monday and finally today she is feeling better. She has a double ear infection coupled with congestion and a high fever. Thank goodness the fever broke last night and she is on the mend. But, that has meant that mommy has had to work from home all week and decided to just take the day off today. It was getting to hectic, even with daddy here helping most of the week.

But, anyways, here is a picture of Ashley that for some reason reminds me of how her daddy drinks....

Let's Go

No blogs lately because poor little Ashley has been sick. So, no time to blog. I think she is feeling better today but we will have to see what the day brings.

Ashley loves to hold onto Izzy's leash if I take her out with me when I take Izzy out. When we were getting ready to leave the house the other day she picked up Izzy's leash and looked at us like, what, she can't go to? Then of course Izzy was upset because she thought she was going outside. These 2 are already making trouble together.

A Big Night

Well, Ashley had a big night last night, she took her first steps. Here is a picture of her standing and getting ready to try to walk. She has 2 steps down, but past that she falls on her little behind. She also gets distracted and tries to reach out for Izzy or grab a toy and then ends up falling! She is just practicing so she can walk at her first birthday party!!

One Big Pumpkin

Ok, one last picture featuring the giant pumpkin that Ashley's Grandma got her. I like these b/c you can see how big it is or I guess how little Ashley is.

Happy Halloween

Ashley survived her first Halloween. And Mama's little monkey had a great time. We went out in our neighborhood with Alex to show them off to the neighbors.

Here is Ashley getting ready to leave for daycare, they put their costumes on there.

The monkey and mommy.

The monkey, daddy and Izzy.
