"Firsts" for our girls

Over that last couple of weeks both Ashton and Landry had memorable "firsts". Here are some pictures of them...




Ashton's first sleepover with Macy

While Landry was in the hospital for her jaundice, Ashton got to have her first sleepover! Here is how it happened...the first night Landry was in the hospital was Friday. Ashton had a girls night with her Mamo (Bobby's mom) at the American Girl store. Bobby and I thought we were being good parents by having Bobby go home and stay with Ashton (since her week had been kind of crazy and the hospital thing happened all of a sudden while she was at school) and I would stay with Landry in the hospital by myself. When Bobby was putting Ashton to bed she started crying and said "Daddy why are you here, my mommy is in the hospital all alone and I have my Mamo here, you should be with my mommy!"

Bobby's mom was leaving on Saturday afternoon and our wonderful friends, Jodi and Bill, offered to let Ashton spend the night with them. We knew she would have a blast and we also knew this time would eventually come (just not under these circumstances or this age). Anyway, she took a camera with her to capture the fun. This is a picture Mr. Bill took for her. Aren't they sweet girls?!

Tummy Time

Landry started tummy time for the first time when she was 2 weeks old. At first she didn't like and it is still not her favorite thing to do. We are hoping that the more she does it the more she will like it! Ashton was so hoping that tummy time meant Landry would actually do something...she was kind of disappointed until we explained what the purpose of tummy time is.

Papo and I were getting ready for the day when a thought suddently struck us---Wonder if the site has been updated?! We rushed to the computer and YIPPIE! it was! What a couple of cutie pies! I think I heard them saying, "We can't wait to go see our family in Alabama!" Your family in Alabama can't wait to see you! Love you all, Mamo and Papo
