So close!

Ashlyn is so close to sitting up from a laying down position. When I prop her up a little bit with a pillow she can do it. I think she will be able to do it this week. She has really been sleeping well through the night. She usually goes to sleep around 7 and does not wake up until 6 or so. It has been heaven for Joey and I to get some great sleep! We had our family over for a bbq yesterday. Ashlyn's grandparents came down from Buena Vista. She always loves to see them! Our friends came with their daughter that is 2. She is such a cutie. Ashlyn had a wonderful time interacting with her. She even shared her prized possession: her swing! This week we are spending getting ready for our big New York trip. We are getting very, very excited! I have a lot of packing to do! This trip will involve a lot more time in planes. I just hope we don't get to delayed or have to sit on the runway for some reason. My parents are also coming so we will have their help too. Ashlyn did so great last time I hope it goes as well. Again, please pray that we have a safe trip. I am bringing my computer with me and I will have Internet at the hotel we are staying at. I am going to try to update the blog while we are there. I am sure we will have lots of pictures to share. I was really bad about taking pictures this week. Below, are a few random ones that I took here and there.

Ashlyn with her best bud!



She is practicing for American Idol.
