HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY ASHTON!!!!



Happy Birthday Ashton. We love you so much and are so glad you are in our family. We love how you laugh and say funny things to us all day. We love how you love to help baby and how you tell us everything she is doing: baby's awake, baby's happy, baby's playing with that. And how you help her go up and down the stairs and give her hugs and hold her and give her her bottle. We love how when someone is sad or hurt you pat them on the back and say "okay?" for are you okay? It is so sweet. We love how you love your bunny and like to take her everywhere. We love that you love to go to the store and to the park and to grandma's house and to all your cousins houses. We love how you are so independent and can get anything you need by yourself: diapers, wipes, shoes, suckers, juice, milk, crackers, oatmeal. We love how you say your cute words. We love how you have very little fear. How you climb to the top of the highest ladders to get to the tallest slides. How you jump from the table on to the Lovesac and you want me to "fluff it" so your landing can be really soft. We love how you love Papa and love to wait up for him. We love how you love to take a bath many times a day and how you would rather not wear clothes, but are great at putting your shoes and pajamas on. We love how you color and paint and make "tandy" (candy) with playdoh. We love how you like to wash your hands and put your clothes in the washing machine and how you climb in the dryer, and how you love to play with your kitchen and dishes. We love how you love to sing songs like: jingle bells, snowman, itsy bitsy spider, popcorn, happy birthday, and the temple song. We love how you like to watch elmo and barney. We love how you like to sit in the smallest space possible next to us on the couch and how you somehow fit. We love to cuddle and get hugs and kisses from you. We love your curly hair. We love how you like to watch basketball and golf and say "go in the hole!" We love how you like to dance and spin to any type of music, you really have rythm. You can shake your booty rival to any music video. We love your happy smile. We love how you are learning so many words. We love how creative you are. We love how grown up you are becoming. We love how social you are, how you say hi to everyone, how you love to go to preschool and wear your "packpack" and you don't even mind when mommy leaves. We love your insides and outsides, we love you from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet. In every way, every day, WE LOVE YOU ASHTON!!!!

What a cute post! I loved it! She's such a cutie. I seriously can't believe we have 3-year-olds. We are WAY too young for that! :) Happy Birthday, Ashton!

That is CRAZY that she is 3 years old already! it seems like yesterday Loni was feeding her an entire pack of ritz crackers in the backseat of your car. It is crazy how time flies - she absolutely a beautiful child. I am very happy she is part of your family and in turn, is part of our family. Love you all and can't wait to see you in 3.5 days!

Super cute. Happy Birthday Ashton!

BTW, don't worry about planning the girls night in April around me. I will only be there until april 6, and the few days leading up to that we are celebrating Andrew's birthday and I probably won't be in the mood for much! Thank you for inviting me though!

Cute Little girl! They are such joy in our lives. Although I will admit, there are days were they make me want to pull my hair out. Ashton is a doll. I can't believe how much she looks like Dan's sisters. What is you e-mail?

We are thinking about doing something on the Oregon coast this summer - i know summer is a busy time for all of you but do you think you would be in? Miss you tons...talk to you soon!
