Let it Grow!

Okay...so I admit Ashley's hair gets a bit crazy sometimes, but really...when I put in those beautiful bows it's not that bad! Brian wants to cut her bangs, but my argument is they need to grow out so she can have long flowy hair! It's still baby hair, for goodness sake! I'm afraid if we were to trim those bangs, we would turn her 'do' into a mullet...business in the front, party in the back!

I'll keep making the bows!

When the cat's away...

Ashley will play!

To say it's not easy trying to get things done around the house with a mobile toddler...is an understatement! Not only is she mobile...she's FAST! I can't believe how much her walking has improved these past few weeks...you turn around and she's already on the other side of the house! I couldn't resist taking some pictures the past few times I caught her entertaining herself!

This evening...I was in the kitchen preparing dinner. I usually have a pretty good grasp on what Ashley is doing, but she slipped this one by me! It took Brian coming home from work to see...

SHE STOLE MY STARBUCKS!
(Note: The cup was 3/4 FULL when I put it down, and also...pinky is in the air!)

Rainey wants in on the goodness!!
Here is her reaction when it was taken away...This is another night I was getting dinner ready...at least she stayed in the kitchen!!
She was able to climb into the cabinets, I unfortunately wasn't fast enough with the camera. Hopefully I'll be ready next time!

And here's my favorite...if it wasn't for the trail, I'm not sure I would have thought to look IN the tub!

Brian's 31st!!

Still catching up on posts here...Brian's 31st birthday was a few weeks ago and we partied hard!! We spent the evening with all the family over for dinner (and if I do say so myself, it was GOOD!). For entertainment, we then watched Ashley's favorite DVD...Mary Rice Hopkins! Oh how times have changed, but with that said...we wouldn't change a thing!
Not sure what they're looking at...but it sure looks interesting!Cousin Kristy came out from Idaho to help celebrate!!
Homemade with love, chocolate cake

Brian had help blowing out his candles!
The next night, we had a little "date" and went to see Avatar in 3D!

We kept the glasses as a souvenir!

Happy Birthday Brian...we love you! From your wife...still in her 20's!!
