This summer was suppose to the summer where I lost weight. I have brought in and set up the ski machine. I have even been using it. In the evenings we have been walking. I do however have a sweet tooth and as you can see we have been baking. We made daddy a surprise, we love you cake. There is always room for cake. 
Today we waited for the UPS person to bring Ashe's new shoes. Of course we waited all day, but they finally arrived. So we went out as family for a bike ride and a walk. Nick rode his bike, while Steven and I pushed Ashe in the stroller. It was so funny Ashe kept swinging his little legs wondering what these things were on his feet.
Well I am all caught up on the laundry, gotta love Summer. No thanks to Ashe who unfolds all the clothes after I'm finished folding them. As soon as he isn't in my site he is causing trouble. Like now... gotta go!
The summer sure has begun. Ashe was home a whole three days and is already crawling. He is now into everything. I of course knew it would be a busy summer but chasing him from 7am until he finally falls to sleep at 8pm is exhausting. Nick on the other hand is already asking when are we going back to school. 
This Mother's Day I have two wonderful boys to celebrate. The best part of this day was all the hugs, kisses, and love. Today I was given a Java Blue, Vera Bradley tote bag and a matching wristlet for Mother's Day. If you look close you can see the monogramming. They spoiled me with a yummy dinner and I even got to sleep in this morning.
Ashe was sitting so nicely in his Boppy until he managed to turn himself around and around in circles. He ended up under the coffee table. This little one is into everything. I can't imagine how we will keep up with him when he can crawl or even walk. 
The Easter bunny left a note for Nick having him find 24 eggs hidden around the house. It was filled with more chocolate, like Nick really needs anymore candy. Nick had a basket with a movie, games, and candy. Ashe got chewy and musical toys in his basket, however he was most interested in his ducky basket.
Ashe is showing you what he did all night in his crib...SLEEP. 
Then this morning he woke up and he was 6 months old. He slept in his crib for the whole night. Mommy and Daddy didn't sleep well because we listen to the monitor all night.
Now that Ashe has a big boy tooth. Mommy makes sure he does a good job brushing that tooth. I love this picture, Ahse looks like he is studying his brother's brushing habits. This one will be another no-cavity boy. 
Ashe is now almost 6 months old. He will have his half birthday on April 3rd. Ashe has hit some big milestones. He is now sitting on his own (check out how great he is doing from the picture above . He is still wobbly but is getting stronger everuday. You will never believe what I found tonight, this was one a big milestones in his first year. I found Ashe's first tooth. It is the bottom right front tooth. I was so excited I was cheering, daddy and Nick were cheeering and Ashe was just wondering what all the noise was about and why everyone had their hands in his mouth. 
Ashe loves to take a bath. He likes to splash water all over mommy. The bath always relaxes him and helps him go right to sleep. Look how big he is, he is now sitting on the other side of the tub. The big kid side. Yeah Ashe!
