Ashlyn Happy First Birthday!!

On Sunday, August 29th, Ashlyn turned one year old! Hooray for her!! She is such a sweet and fun little girl. On Saturday we were able to have a party for her. It was such a great time. My mom has a timeshare in Scottsdale and so we decided to have the party there. We made up some kabobs (SO GOOD!) and we were able to use the pool. It was so fun and I know Ashlyn will not remember this special day but everyone else will!

I made Ashlyn her very own little smash cake!

Brian got some pictures of Ashlyn from under the glass table.

Singing Happy Birthday!

Put a stick in it, it's done. Forget the cake GIVE ME ICE CREAM!!!

Not loving the Birthday Crown.

I love this picture of Rayle. He was not posing for a picture but just having so much fun on this blow up shark!

Thanks Aunt Tracy for the blow up toy for Ashlyn, she LOVED it!!!

Nice moves Teagan!!

We were not able to go into the pool for awhile, they needed to treat the water. Ashlyn kept running to the water, she wanted to get in so bad.

Ashlyn went to the doctor yesterday and here are her one year stats:

She is a light weight at 16.14 1/2 pounds (3-5%)

She stands at 28 1/4 inches (27%)

Her head measures 17 1/4 inches

She has 6 teeth out all the way (four on top and two on the bottom) and she has her top one year molars showing and the bottom will show any day now. LOTS OF TEETH!!

Ashlyn started walking right before she was eleven months. She is getting better each and every day. She walks well with shoes on and she can stand from a sitting position.

Ashlyn is very independent, but I think it's because she has two older brothers that like to pick on her. She has even started throwing tantrums, HELLO I thought I would have at least another six months until that happened. She arches her back and screams. She has also started biting, thanks to Rayle. What do you think will happen if you put your fingers in her mouth???

She loves to eat! Like I mean all day long. Not sure where the food is going since she is so skinny!

She only says a few words like mamma, dadda, and uh oh. She waves and loves to give kisses. She shakes her head yes and no when we ask her questions. She also LOVES to laugh. She has many different kinds of laughs which I think is hilarious. She has her regular laugh and then she has this laugh that you know she is just up to no good. It has this little evil twist to it. It is hard to explain but so funny to hear. Ashlyn likes to play with balls and most of the boys toys. She loves to push things around and carry purse like items. She is so FUN!! We love you like crazy little girl of ours!!! We are so happy to have you in our family!
