Lunch with Grandpa Dave

On Friday, Ash and I took Grandpa Dave out to lunch at Bob Evans for his birthday. It was delicious!!

Ashley Eating Puffs

Chris decided to try feeding Ash some puffs last night. She did much better than the first time we tried. We were at Target and I thought I was going to have to do the heimlich. I couldn't figure out how to flip the video around. She is getting so big so fast.

My Little Gymnast

As everyone probably knows Ashley loves her DVD player. I sat her on the floor to watch it and she moved into the splits. Doesn't look very comfortable. Such a silly girl!!!

Not feeling so good. Poor sick baby

As most of you know Ashley got admitted to the hospital Sunday afternoon with RSV. We took her into Med Check Sunday when she began having trouble breathing. When we got there her oxygen level was only 80%. The immediately started her on breathing treatments and steroids and as soon as she was stable we went to the ER. There Ash received more steroids and breathing treatments, chest xray, oxygen and was then given a bed on the pediatric unit. During the night Ashley dropped her o2 once again and had to have more oxygen. Today she did much better and they allowed us to go home!! They sent us home with a nebulizer so we can do her breathing treatments as needed. She is doing much better. It is so scary seeing your baby so sick. Chris and I are so relieved she is doing better.

Skating Party

Ash and her big sis

Ave and her sister Edin. This was the third time I took the pic because Ave kept closing her eyes. I think Edin was tired of smiling :)

Last night we met up with Averi's sister Edin and her fam to go skating. The girls had a blast!!! Ave has already asked to go back again this weekend.

Ashley's new personality

My mom always said when I had kids I would get my pay back for being such a turd!! Well, the first six months of Ashley's life I thought I was definitely in the clear. Well, now I know I wasn't as lucky as I thought!!! This past week she has developed a new little personality!! She wants to be held constantly and screams if she can't see you. Maybe it's the teething?? Although she is a stinker just like her mommy we still love her to death!!! Daddy's carefree personality would have been nice though. Oh well.....

Ash, Grandma, and Grandpa

Say Cheese!!

Ash hanging out with crazy Grandpa Andy

She just thinks he is hilarious!!

That might be because he acts the same age!! Yesterday Ashley and I went met my mom and step-dad for lunch and then went to visit my dad and step-mom. Confusing, huh?

Another Clarian Kids Outing

Cooper sleeping the night away!

As you can see Makayah takes after Kim. Instead of playing she preferred eating!! Makayah, Charlotte, and Averi sliding down the inflatable slide.

Kim, Melinda, and I met up at Snapperz last night with all of our kiddos. We all had a blast. The kids played until the place closed. We will definitely have to go back!!!

My little santa

The outfit Chris bought Ashley for Christmas.

I am sure everyone is wondering why I am posting pictures of Ashley in Christmas apparel. Well, Chris made me this adorable clay frame with Ashley's hand and foot print for my Christmas present. The frame has a spot for a picture. I totally forgot to take one of her at Christmas to put in the frame. So I guess better late than never. Although she wouldn't smile. She is such a little stinker!! LOL....
