Trevor had his first friend birthday party for our neighbor Addison. It was held at the Play Factory at Desert Ridge Marketplace and what a fun place to have a party! They played, had yummy pizza and cake then played some more. Needless-to-say Trevor had a long nap after that! He's already talking about having his birthday party there. Nothing like planning in advance Trevor :)
Ashley is still all smiles.....
....although she can have a very serious look to her as well. Would love to know what she's thinking!
She is also teething. She's already feeling the pressure to keep up with big brother apparently because they are on the same teething schedule. He started drooling and having his hands constantly in his mouth at 3 months and his first bottom tooth poked through at 5 and a half months.
We broke out Sophie to help with the teething. She seems to like it!
With Ashley sleeping so much during the day it gives Trevor and Mommy a lot of time to play when he's home! He was so impressed that Mommy could put his matchbox car ramp together (um so was Mommy) so we had fun racing!
Trevor is very into Legos especially the kit ones. He had been building them with Daddy for the most part but when he opened one of his gifts for pooping on the potty and saw that it was a Lego dump truck he just had to have it put together immediately. Luckily Mommy loved Legos as a child (and still does) so she put this together in no time flat. Trevor was so happy to know that both Mommy and Daddy can build Legos with him!
On Friday night we once again headed up to Cave Creek to check out the bull riding. We've come to really enjoy our Friday tradition. We saw the most interesting bull ride - the guy stayed on for over 8 seconds and this bull kind of went after the rider so he jumped the fence. Then the bull spied the rodeo clowns and kind of charged after them so they hopped over the fence. Then this bull just stood in the middle of the ring glaring at the crowd so as to say 'who else wants some.' You could just see in his eyes what he was thinking. Shortly thereafter though he was led back in the corral without difficulty.
In between bull riding sessions they have kids riding sheep. This one kid got on a sheep that just shot out of the cage and the kid held on like no one's business. He definitely got a prize - longest sheep ride ever!
Now that Ashley is 3 months and has great head control we brought out a new toy for her...her office! Just like her brother her favorite thing is the turning wheels.
We also got out the Bumbo that our good friends the Crains gave to us once their kids were done with it. She isn't so much a fan right now but we'll see!
Ashley is very into grabbing onto things. One of her favorite toys at the moment is this blue shaker ball. She gets her proud face when she grabs it and shakes it. She is definitely very inquisitive and seems to be focused on figuring out what everything is and does!
