It's been a while!!

It's been a little while since my last blog entry! Time has gone by so fast and Ashlynn is growing up so fast! She'll be 3 months on Tuesday and it still feels like I had her yesterday! She really enjoys daycare! For about the first 3 weeks, she was the only little one in her group! She really got spoiled by her teacher Ms. Carrie :) They loved to love on her and hold her. Hardly ever did I walk past the daycare windows (daycare is in my school) and she wasn't in someone's arm. She was so young when she first started...6 1/2 weeks old! Now, Cooper, Collin & Holden have joined her. Cooper came first! Ashlynn was "smitten" by him. She smiles A LOT at him. She's a silly goofy girl and Cooper is a little more stern and serious. She loves to look at him. I'm going to consider him her first "boyfriend". Ashlynn and Cooper were together for about a week and half and then they were joined by my principal's twins, Collin and Holden. Ashlynn seems to like Collin. :) I don't think she's seen too much of Holden yet. My baby is the only girl in there and they call her The Queen Bee. So cute!! I will have to get some pics of the kids at daycare. THey are so cute!

I really think I made the best choice when I decided to enroll Ashlynn at they daycare at my school. I can see her just about whenever I feel like it. Sometimes I see her when Ms. Carrie takes her on their afternoon or morning walk. It's so cute! Ms.Carrie is a Godsend! I think it must be in her nature to care for infants and newborns.

Ashlynn is able to do so many things now! She's able to grasp and hold on to things. She loves her pink rattle! She laughs and loves to smile. She loves trying to stand up (with Mommy's help of course). She's so calm and nothing gets to her....oh...funny story...we had a fire drill at school and when they have them, all of the infants/newborns in one crib and wheel them outside. Sirens are usually going off and lights are flashing. You would think that it would startle or scare a baby...not mine! She's in the crib smiling and laughing!! Her mobile is keeping her occupied! Nothing seems to upset her. Well, being hungry, sleepy, or when I'm trying to clean her nose. Anyway, Poor Cooper...he didn't handle it as well!!

Ashlynn still sleeps in the bed with me. Mostly on my side, but every now and then I put her between Trice and I. Not often because Trice is a very heavy sleeper! Pretty soon, she will have to get out of our bed. We are working on getting her in her crib. Just this afternoon she slept there for about an hour and half.

At her 2 months shots she was such a trooper! She cried for about 2 seconds and then she was done. However, she was very sleepy for about 2 days. I'm anxious to see how she handles her 4 month shots.

We are now battling a stuffy nose, the sniffles and the sneezes....poor baby!

I'm really loving being a mom! It's one of the best feelings in the world!
