5 months old

My peachy pie turned 5 months old last Sunday. Where is time going? Just when I can't get over she's 4 months, she turns 5 months. Time really goes by in a flash. I can't believe that 5 months ago she came into this world. She is such a happy little ginger, I can't even get enough of her.
Now she weighs in at 17 lbs! I know this cause I had to take her to the dr last Thursday since her and Mya were both sick :(
She's in mostly 6-12 month clothes.
She's still in size 2 diapers but we're just finishing off this box than moving onto 3's.
Crappy sleeper still, competing with Mya to see who can be crappier! Mya usually makes her way to our bed by 1am and when Ashley wakes up, around the same time, I bring her into our bed. I tried last week to let her cry it out when she woke up at 1am but after 10 minutes I went in to see if she was 'really hungry' or just wanted my boob for comfort. Well the kid ate for a solid 10 minutes, she was hungry! We keep saying we're going to give her a nice big bottle before bed to see if that works but have yet to do that. Gotta get on it!
She still loves her exercauser! Plays with all the toys, spins herself around in it and just watches Mya do whatever she's doing too.
She blows raspberries all the time and it's so cute.
Babbles alot, still haven't caught a mama/dada yet.
She loves playing with her toes when she's on her back but she usually rolls Right to her belly.
She's eaten a little bit, started with prunes, than we have also given her butternut squash, carrots and just yesterday tried apples. I gotta say, she's not as into food as Mya was, but she's ok. I've been making all of it so far and hope to do that as I did with Mya.
And I'll leave you with her 5 month pics.
So serious here..

than the smiles start.








I can't even take that tongue sticking out.



practicing her sitting...

I added the boppy incase she falls back...

TIMBER! But still has a hold of her toy.

Halloween weekend

This past weekend was Halloween weekend and we had a fun one! It all started on Friday, we went out for my cousin, Tony's 21st birthday. It was back in September but we all hadn't been out to celebrate yet. You know what I realized when we were out, I'm friggin LAME! It could be that I have a 5 month old and haven't had a full nights sleep since May. But still, my partying days are so over for the next few years. I can't hang like I used to. Oh well, I'll be back sooner or later, well possibly. All in all we had a great time hitting up our old stomping grounds, Raffertys following by the Moon! Happy Birthday Cuz!!!!
Saturday we woke up and I finally got my hair done, been way too long. I always love going to my girl, Chrissy cause I pretty much tell her to do whatever and she works magic! As I was sitting there around 10am, I look outside and it's friggin snowing! I know it was in the forecast but I really didn't think we'd get any. Oh well, I figured it'd be done before I was even finished there. Well it wasn't. I get home and it's still coming down, Ashley's first snowfall!!!! So you know, that justified some much needed pics of the little pumpkin bar. How pretty!

Ashley watching it from the door.


loving it

lookin at daddy



his mini me

The snow was getting heavy and pulling these branches on the tree down. I can't believe how many people lost power and all the problems this storm caused.

Saturday we had a little game night with some family. Mya all ready to cheer on the Jets in her halloween costume!!


Mya was having fun in the snow.

Making their first mini snowman of the season.

a few finishing touches.

ALL DONE!

GO JETS!

Thomas came in his zebra costume. His mom is a teacher at New Brunswick, the Zebras, so fitting.

Had to get this pic, Mags is holding Ashley!! She usually likes them when they hit about a year old.

cool cousins

Hey what are you wearing?

she had her Jets cheerleading costume on, but than decided she wanted to be a princess.

Thomas lookin at his mama like WTF are you holding that baby for? lol

Mya was dragging Auntie Shell around everywhere. They find out the sex of their baby this weekend, so excited to find out if I'll have a little niece or nephew!

We played taboo and Mya wanted to join in so bad, so we let her take a round.

and the first official snowman of the season. I think he already lost an arm.

Sunday morning all ready for church.

After church she was practicing sitting up on her own. She's getting good. Here she was about to fall over.

...about to tip over again.
