Thanksgiving

I finally got around to blogging! Things have been crazy as usual, and I just haven't had the time. I have also been really bad about taking pictures. Ashlyn went in for her 2 year checkup a few weeks ago. Her doctor said she is doing great! I don't have her stats in front of me, but she is in the 15th percentile for weight and the 70th for height. Another big change for Ashlyn is her grandparents bought her a "big girl" bed for her birthday. She is not too sure how she likes it. It has been a bit of a struggle to get her to sleep in it. We are going to keep trying.

We had a great Thanksgivng this year! I woke up bright and early and ran a 5k called the Turkey Trot. I ran it with my brother, sister, and brtother-in-law. It was a great race. There were over 2,000 people in it! Right after the race, we met the rest of my family at The Sunbird for brunch. The food was wonderful! The Sunbird is such a nice restaurant. After we ate, we headed up to Crystola for our 2nd Thanksigiving. We went to Kim's Dad's house. We had a great day watching football and having Ashlyn entertain us. Ashlyn had a blast with the dogs and horses. She actually fell asleep on the floor right before we ate. We decided to eat without her. After eating another wonderful meal, Joey and I headed back home. Ashlyn is staying with her grandparents in Buena Vista for the weekend. I miss her like CRAZY, but I know she is having a blast! I got some shopping done and already put up the Christmas tree. I look forward to her return tomorrow!


Katy, Steven, and I before the race.

She has gotten really good at saying "cheese" for pictures.

Such a little ham!
