Ashlyn is One!!

We officially have a house with two toddlers!!  Ashlyn turned the big 0-1 a few weeks ago!!


We just had a small party at home for her.  She had a great time, looked absolutely adorable and got some great gifts!!
 
 
 


She took her first steps at 11 months, but just started using walking as her main transportation mode within the last couple of weeks.

She says "da-da" and we're working on learning some signs.  She still nurses a lot and is *mostly* sleeping through the night.  Sleep has really been a struggle with her.
 

Ashlyn loves music and shakes her little booty whenever she hears it.  She absolutely loves her brother and really enjoys playing with him.  

She is an eater!  This girl is constantly on the lookout for her next snack.  If you don't want to share, you better eat in the closet :)

She is Oliver's biggest fan and loves to give him hugs.  Oliver is learning to be more and more lenient, but he can only take so much :)

Ashlyn - you are so much fun!  I love the way you light up and run for your daddy every day when he comes home from work.  You are a handful, that's for sure!  You are constantly trying to find things to climb up or get into - we have to watch you like a hawk :)  I'm amazed at how much sleep you don't need - you sleep less than your brother!  But, you are such a happy baby.  Even without sleep :)  We get to spend a lot of quality time together in the early morning hours - you're an early riser!  You are SO full of love!  Always up for kisses, hugs and cuddles.  Whenever you're told "no", you instantly tremble your bottom lip and begin to cry (you get that from your mommy).  I love how you rest your little head on my shoulder and wrap your arms around my neck.  You are curious, independent and absolutely beautiful.  We love you so much and are so grateful for everything you bring into our lives!  Love you baby girl!!
