I love lazy Saturdays! Jeremy was such a wonderful husband this morning and took Ashtyn so I could sleep in. Sleeping in now a days is 8:30...Ha! I remember when sleeping in was 10:00 plus....those were the days...Will those days ever come back? Oh well, the early bird catches the worm...or whatever that saying is?
So thank you to all of you have told me similar stories about leaving babies, or locking babies out or in...they make me smile ( not to leave our babies, but to know that I am completely normal)!
My house is the napping house right now...Jeremy, Tess and Ashtyn are all napping! I love that! I love to look at my family as they seem so at peace. God is good!
Last night was yet another crazy night with Ashtyn's new schedule. I don't know what is worse...her never sleeping through the night or her recently discovering she doesn't have to sleep through the night! It's almost like I wish I didn't know what it felt like for her to sleep. She is waking up around 3 or so and ready to start her day! Last night was her first night rolling over in her sleep. She didn't like it and boy did she let us know! She is also starting to reach her little arms through the cradle when sh cries and talks. I swear when she cries she makes noises that sound like she is saying mama..I know she isn't doing this on purpose, but when she is crying mama and reaching through the cradle my heart breaks!! I think it is time to start putting her in her own room. I can't believe I just said that!!! Hmmm...why is that such a difficult transition? I know it is what is best, yet I am so reluctant to do it! I'll keep you all updated. Speaking of updates, my tooth is already feeling better! Yahoo! I thought I would never be able to eat again. Not that that would be completely bad..I need to loose more baby weight! I seem to forget that I am not pregnant anymore and can't just eat what ever I want!
So one year ago today is the day we told our families that we were going to have a baby! I remember it perfectly! The whole dinner I was so nervous!!! We invited Jeremy's parents, my parents, Josh and Kristy and the boys, and Jessica and Sean. We barbecued in our backyard to celebrate mother's day. After dinner we gave each mom a gift and inside was a picture frame that said grandma....It was so exciting. We then brought out a cake with 2 paci's on top. I was so glad to finally tell people! At this point Jeremy and I had known for a few weeks...and boy it was the hardest secret to keep!
The moms opening their gifts...I love my mom's face!

Jeremy and I..... the secret was out..FINALLY!I loved that night and will never forget the feeling. It's crazy to see how quickly time is going. We had no idea what was in store...all these hopes and dreams and now they are becoming a reality..our reality! Well on that note, Ashtyn is waking up and I need to give her a bath. Back to reality! Ha!
This was one of the best days of my life! My heart was beyond excited. I loved her from the moment I read that card! I for sure was the most excited!
