Live....Laugh....Love

I really enjoy being a mother! Ashlyn is becoming SO vocal and is trying very hard to communicate with Blake and I! She is coming up with all kinds of noises and sounds and of course of few actual words... Her favorites include "No No No" - "Bebe"(baby) - "Go" - "Hey" - "Sssss" (shhhh) - and "Ohhhh" (Uh-Oh)... It's so fun to watch her as she learns to play with other kids, she likes to play chase and of course wants whatever they are playing with. I had to share a few pictures that were funny - I heard Ashlyn coughing while waking up from her nap and when I went to get her she had spit up all over her face, it was pretty gross and she was a trooper while I snapped a picture. Another is of her wearing fun necklaces at my friends house, she is such a girl and knows exactly where they go! On to our weekend, Saturday Blake participated in a Mini Triathlon and did the swimming part of it! We had an early morning to get there on time and we had a great time watching everyone in all the events! That evening we went to see Melissa and Gregg to celebrate Melissa's birthday with her family and had a BBQ! Later that night we met up with my grandma (dad's mom) and my aunt, I hadn't seen my grandma in over 2 years as she was away on a church mission in Mexico City - Ashlyn's middle name is after her so it was fun to have them meet for the first time! I love spending time with family! Happy November...

Oh yuck!!! I have a picture just like that one with Aidan when he was 6mos old. He was on his hands and knees and spit up - put his face in it and looked up at me. Kids are so funny!
