What a fun time we are having!! Ashley is changing by the minute, Trevor is changing by the day and we are just trying to soak it all up!! For example, Ashley finally learned how to grab onto the star on her office and take a big bite. We can remember like it was yesterday the day Trevor did this (and has the exact same picture!)
Trevor and Ashley can't get enough of each other. It really is precious. Earlier this week Trevor made sure his little chair was positioned right next to her office so that he could read books to her and play with her. Love the expression on her face here....she doesn't want to miss a thing when big brother is around. What's that she seems to say!
Other happenings include Ashley trying out the old sippy cup that Trevor used to use. Although it came out much too fast but boy was she proud grabbing onto it and using it!
Ashley has been known to flip over and sleep on her tummy...and is content doing so...until she wakes up and realizes she is on her tummy and is then very pissed off. Lazy one won't roll herself back over. She'd much rather fuss and know that Mommy will rescue her :)
Speaking of the sucky sippy cup, we got our princess a new sippy cup that seems to work much better. And it's pink. Every girl needs a pink cup!
Trevor loved helping her with her new cup and Ashley sure didn't seem to mind the help either. 'Lazy'
But anyhoo, about the weekend. Boy was it busy and fun! On Friday we celebrated Fiesta Friday with our neighbors - about 15 kids and 14 adults. All from the 7 houses around us! We had always heard about our neighborhood Margarita Monday parties but had yet to actually see one since we moved in so we decided to host our own party! Plus a party on Friday is way better than on Monday in our opinion. Celebrating Cinco de Mayo was in order so we had tortillas, pulled chicken, taquitos, chips and salsa, churro puppy chow mix and lots of Corona. People brought dips and margartitas and overall we just had a great time in our courtyard.
On Saturday night we had an impromptu dinner with Grandma Pauline and Papa John and of course that is always a nice time. Trevor doesn't want them to leave so lucky boy gets to stay up a bit later than normal on nights like this!!
On Sunday we talked to Uncle Jim since it was his birthday but also enjoyed brunch with Mike, Nicci and boys. We were going to go to their house but last minute switched it to our house so the boys could go swimming. Nicci brought over a wonderful egg bake and caramel French toast that was out of this world. Must get that recipe pronto!!
