Christmas 2010

Bow Overload 12/2010

So one day I decided to clean up and try to organize her room to get a better idea of what I have in the sense of girl's items. She saw her bow bucket and I decided it couldn't hurt for her to play with it to help her stay preoccupied while I continued. She had other things in mind, when she started asking for every bow and headband on possible.

20 Week Pregnancy Photo

Well I decided it was finally time to post a pregnancy picture. I meant to take a picture the day we found out the baby's sex, but sometimes life gets busy as you all know.

First Time Finger Painting 12/2010

So I finally broke down and let Ashlyn try her hand at finger painting. I knew it would be messy but I also knew that she'd love it.

It's a Girl!

We found out we are having another girl! She looks great. We didn't get a good profile picture because every time she would turn it was towards the back of my spine. Also I'm unable to post ultrasound pics due to the fact that we can't find our software to scan images. So far we are thinking Emma or Brooklyn for names. If anyone wants to give suggestions let us know what you are thinking. It's fun to think about how similar and different she'll be from Ashlyn.

Halloween

So this was the first year that we took Ashlyn trick-or-treating.She went as a Pirate Princess. The night before we took her to Boo at the Zoo along with Josh's sister and her girls. Halloween night took her to our hometown trunk-or-treat and to the grandparents. She loved it! It was so cute, her pumpkin was so full that she was having trouble carrying it but refused to let us help her.

Family Addition

Baby #2 here you come! We are so excited to meet you and hear your little heartbeat in the next few weeks. You'll be a great addition and we will all love you! We'll take lots of pictures of the coming holidays and your big sister's b-day so that when you come you'll see what we were up to while you stayed cozy baking in my tummy.

Colorado Trip 2010

So the last few days Josh, Ashlyn, and I were able to spend time in Colorado. We helped Neil and Jess move all of their things to Neil's mothers. They treated us to Water World and the Butterfly Pavillion. Both were so much fun. We had so much fun and even have talked about going back to visit if they are still there. Thanks Jess and Neil for a great time and please tell your mother thank you to. Below are some pictures of our trip.

Pictures and Videos of Ashlyn

So Josh and I have been doing a little bit better at getting pictures of Ashlyn. In the mix we got some really funny videos to. We just wanted to post a few of them for yours and our enjoyment. Next time we go see the ducks I promise to take the camera. The first two pictures I took today since mom and I cut Ashlyn's bangs and the others are from a few days ago. The video was from this morning.
