8 - 5:30

Ashlyn slept from 8 to 5:30 last night! It was great, although I freaked a little when I woke up and realized she hadn't gotten up at her normal time (3:30-4:00). Hopefully she continues to sleep that long, and it would be nice if she would sleep until 6:30. Just in time to get up and get ready for daycare. Although, starting the 23rd she will be going to our neighbor Becky's house for daycare. That will be so nice! Chad can just take her across the street when they are ready in the morning.

Congratulations Sarah, Steve and Aidan!

Sarah had her baby boy yesterday afternoon. His name is William Joseph Schmidt, born at 12:13 pm, February 9th, 2008. He was 8 pounds 3 ounces, 22 inches long - same size as Ashlyn! I can't wait to go see them tonight after work. I forgot my camera, so I won't be able to post any pictures, but I am sure Sarah will have pictures on her blog as soon as she can. Congratulations Mommy Sarah, Daddy Steve and Big Brother Aidan!

Steph and Jen's Baby Shower

We had a baby shower for Steph and Jen this weekend. We had a good time and they received lots of nice gifts. Steph is having a baby girl, Ella, in March and Jen is having a baby boy, Charlie, in April. How fun would it be to have your sister pregnant at the same time as you!

The baby belly's - aren't they cute!

My masterpiece Diaper Cakes

Ashlyn had a busy day at the shower!

Drinks at Rounders after......

Bad Blogger

Ok, I know I have been a bad blogger. I get annoyed when people don't update their blogs often and now it has been a few weeks since I have done mine.

Not much has been happening lately. Ashlyn is doing great and growing like a weed. She is going to run out of clothes that fit if it doesn't start to warm up soon! She has started using the jumparoo at daycare so I brought ours upstairs yesterday and she loves it! She doesn't really get the bouncing part, but she likes being able to see what is going on.

We tried cereal a few nights and she is starting to realize that the spoon is not a bottle and that rice cereal tastes really weird. She hasn't had any the last two nights, so tonight we will have to try again.

She has been taking a bath in the big bath tub and she definitely has more fun than in the little baby tub. She can kick and splash like crazy! I had to drain the water and refill it one night because she was in there so long the water was getting cold, she was having so much fun that I had to let her play longer.

She also has learned how to blow bubbles, so now her shirts are usually soaked by the end of the day. It is really cute though. I will have to try and get a video.

Tomorrow I am taking the day off and Ashlyn, Taylor, Lisa, Amy and I are going to spend the day with my Mom for her birthday. That should be fun! We haven't seen them all since Taylor's birthday.

Ok, so I was going to put some pictures on with this post, but it is not letting me. I will have to try again later.

Happy Birthday Taylor!

Happy 2nd Birthday to Taylor!

Lisa - you should update her website! ;)

3 Months

I am a little behind, but Ashlyn turned 3 months old on Sunday! She is growing so fast!

At 3 Months......

-She weighs 13 pounds, 3 oz

-"Talking" all of the time

-Very smiley

-Starting to maybe think about rolling over

-Chewing on her hands and drooling like crazy - teething? Maybe.

-Growing out of a lot of her clothes

She also slept 8 1/2 hours last night! 8-4:30! However she did not want to go back to sleep at 4:30 so here we are sitting here wide awake at 6:15. Of course she will probably fall asleep as soon as she gets to daycare, but oh well. I at least got some pretty good sleep last night. Daddy of course is still in bed. That must be rough.

Tummy time and Bumbo time!

Here is my first attempt at a video. It is not the greatest, it was taken with my camera.

Pictures and stuff

No time to write, so just some new pictures.....


New carseat cover and matching hat!

Playing with my rattle.......

Mmmm.....I can chew on it!

So pretty!

Buddy likes the wiggle worm gym too!
