Everything is Great

I have been a very bad blogger over the summer. To get you caught up everything is going great. Ashtyn just got potty trained and is doing an awesome job with that. She is such a big girl now. Caden is crawling everywhere and pulling up on everything. He also just got his top two teeth. They are both soooo sweet!!!

I just started school again, and Curt just started another aggie soccer season. Here are some photos from over the summer.

Caden sleeps & Ashtyn movies

Caden is such a good baby. He is so chill and laid back. People keep telling me that you learn from your first, and I have learned. He can fall asleep on his own, which in my opinion is huge. I just put him in his crib swaddled and awake, and he falls asleep. Knock on wood that this doesn't change. He can take a bottle, and it doesn't matter to him if it is breastmilk or formula. He starts daycare over Spring Break, so that he and I can get in a routine before I have to go back to work. I am going to miss staying at home with him.


Ashtyn has a new favorite thing to do..... watch herself on tv. For Christmas I got a flip cam, and have been filming the kiddos all the time. My new hobby is to make DVD's of the kids. With that being said, Ashtyn wakes up and says, "Mommy, I wanna watch Ashtyn." Bye, bye Mickey and Barney, and hello Ashtyn movies. Maybe she'll be a movie star someday. Here are some recent pictures of them.

Ashtyn always wants to hold Caden, bounce Caden, and kiss on him. They are so cute together.
Me and my two babies!!!

Growing Boy & Ashtyn's Counting

Caden is a little over a month old. He is an awesome baby. He rarely cries, and if he does he stops as soon as you pick him up or fix whatever the problem is with him. He does grunt and snort a lot though. I call him my lil piglet, because of all the funny sounds he makes. He has already outgrown his newborn clothes, and is tipping the scales at a little over 10lbs. Here are some pictures of him.
This is his first bath in the tub. We learned very fast to cover his wee wee up when changing diapers and giving baths.

Ashtyn is doing great, and is talking in complete sentences. She has almost mastered counting. The other day we were reading a book together, and I asked her to count the bubbles on the page, this is what I got,"1,2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,teen,teen,teen,teen,teen,teen,teen,teen,teen,teen,teen, and she kept saying it over and over again. I told her that was cheating of course, and since that day she now has added the number 3. She loves to hold Caden, and she kisses him all the time. She has drank one of his bottles, and gets a hold of his paci and puts it in her mouth all of the time. Crazy girl.
