The NEW Year

Well I decided to throw pictures into a collage for your viewing pleasure so it wasn't a TON of pictures in a row, so we'll see how it turns out! So far this new year we have pretty much done very little! Sounds super exciting huh, but we have had a lot of fun seeing changes in Ashlyn as she takes on the "independent" role - she likes to feed herself but will gladly take a bite of
anything on our plates! She is very good at keeping herself entertained, although with molars coming in she has been extra whiny and needy. She has become really good at playing with her cousins, especially Charlotte who is 2 and Maeley who is 2 1/2. She has started mimicking most everything anyone does who is near her and is starting to blow kisses with her hands! Recently Blake was changing our air filter and while stepping away from the ladder only for a second he returned to find Ashlyn climbing it at the speed of light... We also took a quick photo of my brother Greg with the nieces and nephew who live in AZ before he returned to Utah for school and football for the Utes! Another FAVORITE of Ashlyn's are HATS, any kind and size! she loves Blake's baseball hat and also a beanie hat from Uncle Robb & Dalena for Christmas - she will wear them for hours while playing with all her toys. Sometimes just one or the other and also both! She is so funny, I wish I could record every minute... One other fun thing is my new cell phone, I am now with AT&T and I have to say my phone is all kinds of fun - it slides in two directions and I have a full keyboard for all those text messages I don't send (j/k)! I love toys
