Happy Birthday Ashlynn Bug

My heart is so full this day. I can’t believe that Ashlynn is 2. It seems like just yesterday at this time I was in the hospital holding a bundle of joy and now I am getting ready for a birthday party. I can’t begin to explain the joy and fullness Ashlynn has brought to my life. When I think of her the words pure joy, delight, kindness, happiness and giggles come to my mind. Ashlynn is such a doll. She touches everyone’s heart. She is such a smart little girl. She remembers things after only hearing them once, she can repeat everything we say including words like Mississippi, hippopotamus, we are still working on Mary Poppin’s famous line-haha, I shouldn’t make her say what I can’t spell. Ashlynn is able to speak in sentences, complete lines in books, tell stories, sing nursery rhymes, say her ABC’s, count to 10. I am so proud of her. She has a sweet disposition. She loves to be outside. She is truly a princess. She is a great big sister. She is fast to comfort her brother when he cries saying, “Don’t cry Huddy” or “Happy Hummus.” She loves to sing to Hudson and tell him the story of the three little pigs. Ashlynn loves the water. She loves a bath, loves to do the dishes, is obsessed with washing her hands, loves to dump soap into the washes, etc. Ashlynn has recently started saying, “I love you Mommy and Daddad and Hummus.” This is my favorite thing of late. Ashlynn loves to help in “Mommy’s kitchen.” She would bake cookies, sweep and do dishes all day if I let her. She will be such a great wife and mommy someday☺ I love you my precious little bug.

Congratulations!!

Barry passed his last set of National Dental Boards with flying colors. Whooohooo! Good Job Barry! I am so proud of you!

My Valentines

These are the loves of my life. Need I say more.

Advice Anyone

So I've kind of half heartedly started potty training Ashlynn. Any useful advice would be greatly appreciated. I have no clue what on earth I am doing.

Shower Time

I am so blessed to have met so many wonderful friends here in Las Vegas. Last Thursday Hollie and Tara threw me a baby shower. It was so fun to get together with my girlfriends. We met at Bucca Di Beppos and had some awesome Italian food. We all sat around a huge table in what the place calls the "Pope Room." There are pictures of the pope on all three walls and a huge statue of him in the middle of the table. One of the funniest parts of the night was when Whittney walked in and said, "who is this guy?" Thanks to everyone!
