How long before Ashley will walk???

First of all, we want to congratulate cousin Brent and his football team for a 22-7 victory over Lineville-they remain UNDEFEATED and are going to the championship!!! We would also like to wish Papa Bud a happy birthday!


Will Ashley be walking soon??? I think so!!! As you can see below, she's pulling up on EVERYTHING and has even stood for a few seconds without holding on to anything. I'm so excited, but at the same time realize that my baby is slowly becoming a little girl...Speaking of, she went for her flu shot today, as well as a weight check. She weighed 18 lbs and 15 oz and was 29" long. So, in six weeks, she gained 1 lb. and 3.5 oz. and grew a whole inch! She is now in the 25th percentile in weight and just above the 50th percentile in height. She's getting to be a big girl!



We want to also congratulate Jimmie Johnson on yet ANOTHER victory in Atlanta yesterday. Here is a picture of Ashley and Jason at our brand new Lowe's store, driving the Jimmie Johnson #48 buggy!

Ashley also had fun in the bathtub with her new Froggy toys that Mimi brought her while she was here. She is saying so many new words: Maw-Maw (her babysitter), TV, love you, baby and puppy. She also finally got the hang of feeding herself finger-foods and actually getting them into her mouth! She got this help from cousin Jason, as they shared cereal/puffs Saturday afternoon.


I know, I know... It's not even Halloween yet and we've got our house decorated for Christmas! That's what we did this weekend because my best friend (the photographer), Stephanie Arnold (stephaniearnoldphotography.com) is coming this Friday night to take our family Christmas photos at our house, so I didn't have a choice... It was exhausting and I'm glad it's over!! Now, all we have left to do is the outside, but we didn't want the neighbors to think we were TOTALLY crazy, so we'll wait 'til Thanksgiving to do that part!
