Deliciousness

13 Weeks

13 weeks and still growing! She is such a ray of sunshine! I couldn't ask for a better baby!

Adam's Coffee

Adam brought me these and said "Mommy can you make some coffee for me?" I'm not sure where he has ever even heard about coffee since we don't drink it and no one else around us does, but it made me laugh. 

Another Spiritual Visit

The bathroom spirit has struck again. I guess he was unhappy that I removed him from the toilet paper roll and threw him on the floor last night. 

Bathroom Spirit

After tucking all the kids in, while enjoying my peaceful and quiet evening, I found a present that Adam left for me in my bathroom at some point during the day. Normally the trail of toys he leaves laying around the house leaves me endlessly frustrated, but this one left a smile on my face. 

The Thumb

I think this habit is here to stay!

I've never had a baby be such a big thumb sucker! She'll take her binky when it's given, but anytime she's stirring and nobody is there to offer the binky, in goes the thumb. She is still sleeping in my room so I'll wake up to her thumb-sucking sounds during the night or early morning. It is the funniest sound! She is so perfect!

Memorial Day

Our Memorial Day weekend started on Saturday afternoon as we headed up to Pinetop. We stopped in Payson on the way, when we saw this crazy-looking bird that was making this crazy sound. I was surprised and pointed it out to everyone. I asked Trevor if it was a turkey. Jacob surprised us all by informing us that it was a Guinea fowl. Sure enough, he was right.

We are baffled as to how he knew this.

 

We went on a few hikes together. Ashlyn enjoyed her place in the baby carrier on Daddy's chest. She took in the sights and didn't make a peep.

I was able to coerce the boys to pose for a family picture. After a few that didn't turn out, I begged them to try for one more. Thanks for adding some character to it, Hunter.

Ashlyn was as content as could be with her Daddy wrapped around her little  fingers.

 

Ashlyn's thumb sucking made a more prominent debut and has since been a constant soother when her binky isn't available. I was a thumb-sucker for a good part of my childhood so I finally got one of my kids to follow suit. She was AMAZING the whole weekend! She slept so great and was just happy and content for the most part. We are so lucky to have such an angel!
