Ashlyn started this new thing which makes us all laugh so much. She started jumping into our arms or at us if we are near her. It's quite funny! Also since she's so flexible, which if you saw her you would know just what I mean by "so flexible". It's not normal. I mean I haven't seen many babies do what she does. (Maybe I just think that cuz I want her to be the only one, haha) But really she has no need to crawl since everything she needs she can get by stretching her body very far and scooting. I wonder if she'll ever crawl before she walks. She also just found her hair. The only downside is she pulls her hair bows out of her hair. So I guess I'll have to go to elastics. Which I hate since she cries when I put them in. What else? She is very good at drinking out of her sippy cup. And is starting to get away from the whole picky eating phase. Hopefully that is just a short phase and never comes back. Ha, ya right! She's gained a good amount of weight since the last check up so that's a huge plus. Will be over 14 pounds, maybe 15, at her 1 year checkup. Yay! She'll play roll the ball too. Meaning she'll roll the ball to us and we roll it back. So fun! And she also is so close to going from sitting to standing. So close!!

So her invites for her first birthday are out. Ah...am I really ready to have a "One Year Old"? I dunno...guess it's gonna come no matter what.
