BIRTHDAY to Emily! Happy
Friday! My day was spent unpacking, settling in, doing laundry, picking
up around the house, sorting through a ton of mail, vacuuming, dusting,
and cleaning out the fridge. Ashlyn
had a bath this morning. For someone who doesn't wear shoes and rarely
wears socks, she's got some stinky feet! And for some twisted reason,
I can't stop sniffing them. She gets a good laugh whenever I bring her
tiny feet to my nose, make a face, and say , "schmelly schmelly!"
After her bath, I let her roll around on the towel in the buff. She
surprised me, and herself, by FINALLY rolling from tummy to back! She
kept herself busy rolling from back to tummy to back repeatedly....trying
to perfect the skill. *beam* I was so proud! =) hehehe Since
returning home last night, Ashlyn has refused to eat solids. I gave
her some creamed spinach (which she normally likes), but she either
kept spitting it out, making a huge mess, or refused to open her mouth.
I, then, opened up a jar of carrots (which she likes even better) and....same
thing. I wasn't too pleased about that. =( After
Aric got home from work, he played with Ashlyn while I took a nice long
shower. Tonight we had dinner with Ed, Sue, James, Grace, and Lauren.
James took us to this really great Korean restaurant in Garden Grove.
I didn't catch the name, but it's on Brookhurst...uh, which isn't much
help....it's like saying, "this one Chinese restaurant in Chinatown).
=P I have some exciting news!!! Grace, Patti, and Sue are all pregnant and expecting later this year! My prayers have finally been answered...friends who are jumping on the baby-bandwagon with me! YAY! This will be Grace's second child, but the first for Patti and Sue. VERY EXCITING! As for my girls -Cin, Ivy, and Wil...I won't hold my breath. They've made it perfectly clear that they are going to wait (as long as they can). =T After
dinner, we went to The Block at Orange for free Krispy Kreme doughnuts
and to walk off our meal. At Krispy Kreme, Ashlyn had a big poop...and
since she didn't get adequate amounts of solids, the poopy was loose
and ran out the front of her diaper! Of course it would have to happen
on the one occasion I didn't pack an extra outfit. =( I changed her
onesie and threw on her jacket. We kept her warm under her blanket.
The Block was pretty packed! I think the Red Hot Chili Peppers were
at Vans Skatepark performing and promoting Dogtown
and Z-Boys. Pictures from tonight:
Have a great weekend! =D
