Things are moving right along here. I am still working part-time at Mike's office. It is going well, believe it or not. We don't work together a lot so I think that helps! We moved to a bigger office at the beginning of February, and things are starting to gear up for the company.
Jake just celebrated his third birthday. (I will make a separate post for that) He is such a big boy. He has full on conversations with you. He tries to negotiate everything. I say "2 more minutes and we are going inside", he says "how about five." He sure knows what he wants. He talks so much now and repeats so may random things. It is so funny. The other day he said "mommy, guess what?" I said "what?" He said "Chicken butt!" and laughed!! I have NEVER said that to him before. I asked him where he heard it and he said "from Goofy!" I couldn't even blame it on a kid in his class, he got it from a show I let him watch! It is so cute how he is getting a sense of humor. I will give him a drink or a snack and he says "mommy is that for me? Oh, that is so sweet of me" He is such a little lover. He gives Ashlyn a kiss before bed and nap everyday. Most of the time I night I ask if he wants to give her a kiss and he says "No, I want to give her 2 kisses" He is just a sweetheart.
We signed him up for soccer. His first game is Saturday. We have really been talking it up to him. We got him a ball and have been reading books about soccer. I was not looking forward to getting him shin guards. I went and got them last night and tried them on him this morning and he liked them! I was so happy that we didn't have to battle about that. I will be sure to post pictures and movies of his first game. The game lasts a total of 30 minutes. They play 10 minutes, have a 10 minute break, and play 10 more minutes! I hope he enjoys it.
Ashlyn is just crazy. She is a happy, loud, crazy, smiley girl. She ADORES Jake and everything about him. She loves cars and trucks, but isn't afraid to wear cute shoes, rockin sunglasses and her hair in a pony. She actually LOVES shoes. She will bring you random shoes throughout the day to put on. Sometimes they are hers and sometimes they are Jake's. She could care less whose they are, she just wants them on. Jake has a pair of cowboy boots that he outgrew. I colored all the thread in them pink and glued rhinestones on them for her. She thinks she is hot stuff. She wakes up in the morning so happy. You get her out of the crib and put her down. She runs into the living room and yells "HI, HELLO" with the biggest, cheesiest grin ever!
Ashlyn is talking up a storm. She says dada (a lot), moma (not a lot), Jakie, shoe, bird, ball, car...I can't even think of everything she says. She makes all sorts of animal noises, which is pretty funny sounding.
She is never far from Jake. She really is a pain to him sometimes, but she just wants to do what he is doing. She still SCREAMS all the time. I can't wait until she really can talk and hopefully the screaming thing will stop. Jake doesn't help the situation either, because he just screams back at her!
I am going to upload some random picks from the last 4 months. I will be back to add some movie too.
The first few are from out last trip to Disney in December.


They both had these 8 inch popsicles. I think Jake looked forward to going to the parks so he could get a popsicle.


Ashlyn and I were outside playing. I was sitting taking some pictures of her. She came up and tackled me and started makes faces at me! She is too funny!

This is the face we get in the morning.
How sweet is he!
They love to do things together!
Ashlyn got this hat for Christmas. I wasn't sure how much she would get to wear it. She loves it so much, she puts it on when it is like 80 out. Thanks Aunt Donna for the hat!
