Play time with dad....


Ashlyn was having lots of fun climbing all over her daddy.



Even poking him in the face.

Into everything now at the office....

So I had just finished changing Ashlyn diaper and left her by the bathroom door. I knew she would follow me to the front by crawling and so I went a head and sat down at the front desk and began working again. Well I noticed Ashlyn still hadn't made her way to the front and then I heard this noise of things falling. Well this is what I found when I came around the corner.
She enjoyed getting into the supplements and products on the shelf. So now it looks like I'm going to watch more closely.

Dad gets the first kiss....

All he said was give me sugars and this is what he got.

IMAX Monsters vs Aliens

So while the Andersen's where here in Utah visiting from Colorado. We decided to take them down to the IMAX theatre and see a 3D movie. Ashlyn was the best ever. The movie was 1 1/2 long and for a hour straight she sat back against her dad and watched the movie with her 3D glasses. Then after that time had passed she was good eating her MUM MUM Treats for the rest of the movie . No noise or crying through the whole movie. Boy! were we lucky.....

Ashlyn got sunglasses...

After the IMAX we went to Target and the Andersen's bought Ashlyn sunglasses.



She was ok with them for the first 15 minutes and then her dad put on the head bow that came with the glasses and then she had a melt down.

Look how brave she has become.....

We got home from the IMAX theater and I put her down to play with her toys while I unpacked the things I got at Target and when I turned to check on her this is what she was doing. She has been working on her balance on her knees a lot lately but never flat footed and standing up.

Ashlyn is officially crawling.......

So we have friends in town this weekend from Colorado and so Ashlyn schedule has been changed a little. So tonight I went to lay her down for bed and 10 minutes later she was crying and just not wanting to go to sleep. So Jared went up to check on her and then a few minutes later here comes Ashlyn and her dad down the stairs. Of course, she had a big smile on her face because she has her dad wrapped around her finger. Anyway, he put her down on the ground to play with her toys and then before we knew it she was crawling on all fours. So I guess she wanted to show us she could crawl tonight before going down to sleep. She only played for maybe 15 minutes and crawling around and then she was offically ready for bed.

Ashlyn 9 Month Pictures

Ashlyn didn't do well with these pictures. She just wasn't in the mood today.

Ashlyn finds her feet tasty.....

I had given her some crackers to eat and so when I went to check on her, I found her trying out her toes. What ever keeps her entertained is fine with me.

Ashlyn favorite time of the day....

She loves crackers and her water.



She loves to show you what she is eating these days.

Ashlyn playing with her toys and office supplies...

We feel really blessed to have a child who will entertain herself while we try and get things running in the new office. She will play and scoot around that office for hours before she either is ready to eat or time for her nap.

Ashlyn has her 1st Tooth.....

We have been noticing when she smiles the white under the gums. She's never complained about her gums bothering her, so this morning as we were getting ready for work we noticed that the Tooth had broken through. Unfortunately, everytime we try to hold her lip down to take a picture she sticks her tongue out and we are unable to get a picture. So no picture at this time to show off her first tooth. The one next to it is almost ready to break through as well.

Ashlyn loves her dad's books.....

Now that Ashlyn is scooting around she tends to get into things when you aren't expecting her to. I was working on things at the front desk and she managed to get to her dad's office and get his books off his book shelf.

Ashlyn enjoying her MUM MUM Treats

So when Ashlyn has had enough with playing with toys and office supplies, she tends to start getting a little fussy. So we now just put her cover over her car seat and give her water and Mum Mum treats and she loves it. Of course you can see she got mad and was trying to get out of the car seat but thats because she ran out of food to eat.

Sunday Afternoon Walk

We made cookies for the Bishop's wife since she had taught our Primary class when we were out of town. So we decided we would walk them over since they lived right up the street. Needless to say they lived all the way up the street. Lets just say I'm difinitely not in shape with this pregnancy. As we continued up the street I became more and more short winded and out of breathe, but once we looked back towards our house we relized that the street is very steep. It ended up being a very beautiful and sunny day and figured we would make the most out of it. Ashlyn really enjoyed the walk.

Went to Make Bows at Mindy Greene House....

I met Mindy at our New Ward in Utah and she has a daughter who is around the age of Ashlyn. So I met up with Mindy at her house today and she taught me how to make hair bows for Ashlyn. This is one of the bows that Mindy made. I'm truly thankful that Mindy showed me how to make bows. Thank you.....
