A Birthday Party!

January 5th- We were able to see some more friends that we met in Baltimore last night- The Sorenson's! Kolby and Ally's little boy is turning 1 this month and since they were in town this week they decided to put together a little party for him while they were here. We had lots of fun catching up with them and seeing Camden DEVOUR his cake. Happy Birthday Camden!


Sharing.

January 5th- If Keaton has a car Aisley needs a car. This boy is such a good brother. He is learning patience in sharing with this little girl.




Yay for friends!

January 2nd- We were able to meet up with our best BFF's the Spicer's while they were in town for Christmas! It was so great to catch up and of course see Annalise again! (She has grown so much since the last time we saw her!) We love our best friends!!!

An Aisley UPDATE! (a month late...)

Aisley at 15 (almost 16) months old!

The Facts:

Aisley is not only a pro crawler and cruiser, but she also has learned how to go up and down the stairs without scaring me half to death! She's not quite walking yet, but it won't be long!

Aisley still only has her 2 bottom teeth, but we wouldn't be surprised if any day now her top 2 teeth poke right through her swollen little gums.

She DOES NOT enjoy eating. Her list of things that she will eat is quite short, but yogurt covered raisins, egg nog, pastry crisps, jello, and Milano Christmas cookies are amoung the few things she will almost always eat. At least lately.

Aisley usually wakes up 1X (sometimes 2X) a night now and I attribute that to hunger. She drinks a bottle and goes right back to sleep. She simply just doesn't eat enough during the day to keep her belly full all night long. During the day she usually takes 1-2 naps that are right around 2 to 2 1/2 hours long each.

She loves to talk! Most of what Aisley says is jibberish, and it's soooo cute! But, she also knows quite a few words- "Mom," "Dad," "Keat," "Hi," "Bye," and "Yay!" Her little voice is so cute and we just love hearing her respond to the world around her.

Aisley loves singing "If you're happy and you know it!" (Actions included! She claps her hands and raises her hands high above her head to shout "Hooray!")

She can sign "more," "all done," and "thank-you!" (Thank-you is the newest sign she has learned and she looks so cute when she signs it over and over and over!)

Aisley adores her big brother and wants to be just like him. When he plays with his cars, she wants to play with his cars. When he is downstairs in the play room playing she wants to be right by his side playing with him. It makes my heart happy.

Our Miss Aisley Pearl is tiny. She just started wearing 12 month clothes, but can still fit into most of her 9 month clothes too!

Aisley is most certainly a "momma's girl." Especially if she is sad or tired. This girl has me wrapped around her little finger and I fall for her sweet little cuddles every.single.time.

Mostly, Miss Aisley is one happy, smart, silly little girl. And, oh how we love her! We are so blessed to have her in our family. We love you Aisley Pearl!
