My Growing Girl

I'm a little behind on updating the blog, so get ready for picture overload.  Ashley has grown up so much over the last month, it is amazing how quickly time is flying!  She is so much fun and brings so much joy into our home.  Here's a quick update on all her latest activities.

She loves to play in the exersaucer (and mom loves it too)

She now eats solid foods, and I can't get it in her mouth fast enough

 

She LOVES winnie the pooh

 

She loves to "read" her books, they keep her entertained for quite a while

 

We went swimming for the first time with Ashley a few weeks ago.  She had a great time in the water.

 

She grabs at EVERYTHING in front of her

 

She loves to hang out with mom :)

 

She can almost sit up on her own

And she is so dang cute I can't handle it!

 

I can't believe my little girl is 6 months old already.  We had her latest check up this week and she is  growing like a weed.  Ashley now weights 15 pounds and is 28.5 inches long.  Just a tall and skinny girl, but healthy as ever.

Grandpa's in Town!

My dad had work in Dayton last week and once he was finished, decided to spend the weekend with us.  It was so much fun to have him in town for a few days!  We took advantage of the extra set of hands and installed a few ceiling fans, fixed a couple of pipes, and hung pictures on the walls.  He was a great sport to help with our house projects during his time off! 

And, of course, we had to take him to have famous ribs at Montgomery Inn while he was here.

 

As much as I'd like to believe he came to see Tyler and I, I know he was most looking forward to seeing his grandbaby and she was excited to spend time with her Grandpa!

All Moved In!

After four months of anticipation, we closed on our very first home on August 2, 2012.  We are so excited to finally have a place to call our own!  It has taken a little while to get all settled, but it has been fun for me to put it all together and I think after a month it finally feels like home.

Ashley was in good hands as we were busy with the house.  

This is her first tea party with the cousins!

Thanks to all who helped with the move, especially Ty's family for help moving and watching our little Ashley!
