We Have A Little Work To Do ...

Really good opening, but even better improvisation in the middle!

Father's Day!

Hope you enjoy Ashley's gift to her Daddy for Father's Day! And a very happy Father's Day to our dads! (Please excuse the HORRIBLE resolution! The regular file was too big for the site, so I had to compress it!)

Too Early?

I was painting my toenails tonight and a certain someone was very annoyed that she was not having HERS painted! So...



(This can't be the gateway drug to a toddler beauty pageant, can it?!)

Fakers

Chillin' With My Homies

Big Ashley, Nina and Ashley hanging at the park.

(I've heard about mixing patterns, but my child is dressed in an obscene amount of stripes!)

In other news:

• Ashley went pee-pee on her big girl potty chair last night! Well, actually she started peeing on the floor and we rushed her over to it and she finished going ... but it played a big song for her and she got very excited, so we are optimistic!
• Ashley finally gave up her bottle. (She also refuses to drink milk out of a cup, but she will eat it with her cereal and has plenty of yogurt and cheese to make up for it.)
• She can sing her ABC's all the way to "G" which I think is pretty darn good. She also sings along to "The Wonder Pets" theme song and "Wheels on the Bus." If I can get her to sing the hook to the Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow," I think we'll really be getting somewhere.

She continues to amaze me by pointing out "airpanes" in the "ky" and tells me it is "winy" when there is a breeze and that she is "code." She talks about any and everything and I can barely keep myself from bolting out of the office to get home to her sweet little face. AH! I WANT TO EAT HER!!!

Just Got This...

I was just sitting in a meeting and our nanny Claudia sent this picture to me. I love it! That's my girl!!! Love the shades!

So Much Happening...

We seem to be so busy lately that I have no time to update the blog. Between our travel schedules for work (thanks to Grammy & Grandpa for being amazing helpers!) and a little vacation (thank you Gigi and Papa for hosting us on a fabulous Kauai escape!), it seems that life is just flying by ... Here are a few videos to keep you up to date with Miss Ashley:

I see some cousin-based peer pressure in our future!


Dancing is a lot of fun ... until your tummy gets in the way.
