Sweet Boy

I see you! Ashton was playing with his bunny and kept putting the ears over his face and then I would move them and he would just smile. So precious!

Don't you just want to squeeze those cheeks! I just love him!

Ashton's first time in the pool. He just sat there and enjoyed the water.

Ashton and Cameron were in deep conversation over dinner. A moment after this picture Cameron gently reached up and touched Ashton's nose. I wish I would have gotten the shot. They are starting to become friends.

Where's Ashton?
"Be vewwy, vewwy quiet. I'm hunting wabbit."

Smiling at Daddy!

In Loving Memory...

...of Kazzey. My parent's and brother's dog, Kazzey, was very sick and had to be put to sleep yesterday. She was a beautiful, amazing dog with a heart bigger than any human. Always ready to go for a walk, never ready to stop playing. Water...she was in it. Ducks (or any small animal that moved in her presence)...she was chasing. A lap...she would try to sit in it if there was any room for her to wiggle into. Forget about personal space...she was in it with a head on your shoulder ready to listen to whatever good things you had to say about her. :) She was one-of-a-kind that you would have been lucky to know. She was very loved and will be greatly missed. Kazzey, we love you and will never forget you. You have blessed our family.

Ashton's Antics

Here's my mischievious little man! Well, this is how the story goes. We were playing on his playmat all nice and content being in his diaper. Well, Sam (our dog), being very old, had peed on the tile floor and Mommy had to clean it up before the already 2 ft. diameter puddle turned into a 6 ft. puddle following the highways of grout. It took about 5 minutes to wipe up and mop. Ashton is still playing in his room like a good little boy, so Mommy thinks. Not my baby! As I return to the room to continue our playtime, I find my little mover halfway on his way to his dresser. "Got bored on my playmat, Mom. So, I thought I might make my way around the room and check it out." Needless to say, Ashton is on the move and seems to enjoy his new found ability. :)

More videos!

I found another video clip of Ashton bouncing. He's quite the rambunctious one here. (I was talking on the phone in the background)

I thought everyone might get a kick out of Ashton eating. He absolutely loved the apples and bananas I was feeding him. He was like a little bird when the spoon came to his mouth. It was the first time since we've started foods that he was waiting for another bite. The banging noise is his feet hitting the highchair tray because for whatever reason he gets his little legs going a mile-a-minute when he eats.

The doctor gave us the okay to start trying some new foods so,...we started with carrots. He did pretty good with the new taste, but I wish I would have gotten a picture of his face on the first bite. It was priceless. Overall, he liked them okay.

Okay, Mom! I'm done!

This morning we tried bananas. He smiled every time I gave him a bite. He really liked them.

Look at me! I'm holding my bottle all by myself!

I'm just ducky!

These are just some cute pictures I got of Ashton with Daddy. They were playing on the couch as usual. They've become quite fond of each other. Ashton grins from ear to ear when he sees Daddy and starts to laugh when he talks to him. It's so sweet to watch the two of them.

Bouncy Man!

This is for Gammy. She wanted to see her little boy jumping in his jumperoo. Here he is. At this point he has been in there for 30 min. and is loving every second of it. I wish I could get all of his noises and laughs, but he becomes mesmerized with the camera when I try to record him. This was probably my 20th attempt, so I took what I could get. Enjoy!
