My parents visited for a week in mid June, so we were pretty busy, thus why there have been no blog entries in awhile. Of course, I happened to take a ton of pictures then so this could get long!
Here’s the rundown: Ashlan has learned to put her arms up when she wants you to pick her up and it just melts my heart every time she does it! She learned about a week or so before my parents got here (about two weeks ago) and so she also used it on them when they were here. It was really cute. She is also so close to getting up on all fours! In addition to that, she is starting to lean on her elbows when she’s on her back, so she may be able to pull herself up to a sitting position soon. She can hold herself sitting up for long periods of time now. Feeding herself the sippy and bottle is going well too. Also, she managed to learn how to put the binky back in her mouth!!! That also started about a week before my parents came and she is very good at it now. In fact, she recently learned how to do it at night as well, so that is great for us! I've started to scatter a few around her crib at night so she can find one easily when she wakes. One last thing, she started to say, "mamama" in the last few weeks and actually just uses two syllables in more than a few instances...I am SO happy to hear that!!! :) Guess all my repeating is paying off, haha!
Enjoy the pics!
She loved my dad's beard!
Nana had her laughing.
This was in the early morning, when Ashlan likes to get up, which is why it's so dark inside!
She loves to dance!
Impromptu pic at a restaurant in St. Augustine. We really have to watch her now when she's on our laps and we're eating...she grabs everything in sight!
Her saying "mamamama".
Nana holding Ashlan while she eats...Ashlan was holding the bottle herself though.
Such a happy little girl!
Bedtime story.
Giving daddy smiles.
Love this pic with her tongue and belly hanging out!
"No more sitting, Nana! I want to dance!"
Funny girl!
Enjoying a morning by the pool before it got too hot.
She LOVES to "read"! I think she'd rather do that than play with her toys.
Trying the pool again...happy so far.
Loves to splash her feet in the water.
Definitely enjoyed it this time! Of course, the pool was much warmer at 90-some degrees!
She wanted to touch the water...splish splash.
