Check up

Ashley had her 6 month old check up!
Weighing in at 14.10 lbs
Height at 26in

So she is still growing and she is growing tall. She is growing and learning so much lately. She can not do a army crawl and get her where ever she wants to go. She is a very happy baby and I am very thankful for that. Skin problem has almost completely cleared thank goodness.


My check up took us to a fun filled afternoon in the ER. I got a sore on my foot and did think anything of it. It showed up at the beginning of the week and it has begun to get worse and worse. I work for a Dr so he started me on some antibiotics thinking that was all that was needed. Nope woke up and my foot was swollen and you could tell I had an infection on my foot. So I got sent to the ER to get it cleaned out. I got a big needle put into my foot which hurt so bad. I would rather have another baby than go through that again. The opened up the spot and cleaned it out and cleaned it up. I left in just as much pain as I need entering the hospital. It feels much better now and I am glad I finally got it taken care of but man did it hurt. Feet and Needles just do not go together well. Ashley just laughed the whole time she was there with me in the ER. I think she knew I was getting paid back for all the shots she had gotten.

No more Doctors and no more needles for a while at least.

Happy Late St. Patricks Day

Night Time or Play Time?

Well Ashley has gotten the stage where she knows that it is bedtime but she does not want to go to bed. Last night like every night almost all week! Ashley gets really tired and starts to rub her eyes and gets a little upset at everything. That is our sign to put her in the bath and get her ready for bed. (she loves her bath and she can be in the worst mood and a bath makes her happy.) I brought her downstairs and feed her and she was out. I carried her upstairs like I always do which wakes her up a little! Which is good so than she can roll on her side and go to sleep again in her bed! So not last night though. She rolls over and laughs. I get to where she can not see me. I was waiting to see what she does and weather she will go to sleep? Nope starts to get mad so I get her out and start to rock her back to sleep and calm her down. Nope not Ashley she would not stop laughing. I take her down stairs, where Tyler is watching TV. She continues to smile and laugh the whole time and for another 30 min. Tyler and i did not look at her or play with her. She just keep laughing. Finally she just laid down and feel asleep and I was able to take her and put her in her bed. Tyler and I laughed after it was all over. I am grateful for a happy baby.

6 Months

6 Months Old Tomorrow

I can not believe she is 6months old. She has grown so much over the last months and has changed is so many ways.

• She can sit up by herself most of the time. She gets so excited about her feet and tries to eat them and starts to fall over.
• Hair is coming in a lot more lately. It sticks up everywhere but it is growing.
• She had grab a toy and move it from one hand to the other.
• She still loves to take a bath but has tried many many time to put her face in the water. She loves water and it does not bother her to get water on her face at all. It will be fun to be able to take her swimming.
• She talks all the time. I think she tries to sing when ever someone else is singing. During church and we are singing a song is when she really gets excited and starts making noises the most.
• She had roll and boy does she love to roll. She thinks it is funny to roll right as you are taking her diaper off. Something about not having a diaper on really starts to make her laugh.
• She has move in her walker. She pushes herself backwards until she can't anymore.

(so the hair behind her ear never stays down it makes me laugh every time I see it)

I love this girl and Tyler and I are so thankful for the wonderful spirit she brings into our lives.
