Photo Dump/Cuteness

We have been here and there and back again the past few weeks. 

Ainsley has been going to mother's day out on tuesday and thursday mornings. She has two wonderful teachers and gets to spend a few hours with kids her age. It is a Christian based curriculum with craft time, music class, gym time and lunch:) She seems to really enjoy it and it gives me a few hours to get some things done or sometimes go into work early and have Mom pick her up. She has been in trouble twice: once for not listening/responding and once for throwing her food, piece by piece, onto the floor. Lucky for us we have jackson at home to clean up her mess. and when I accuse her of making a mess she just repeats "mess", which makes me want to laugh. 

She goes to BSF with me on Wednesday mornings and the children's program is awesome. She walks into her room and starts saying "bible". it makes my heart flow over. 

on the flip side though, when we go to church, she walks into her class saying "crackers"… she eats southland out of crackers every sunday morning. 

Ainsley had a little virus (maybe? maybe molars coming in?) last week. she woke up pitiful saying "hot hot" and proceeded to vomit on me. poor, sweet, little thing. luckily, it didn't last long. 

i am just going to upload lots of pics that are snapshots of our past couple weeks:) 

playing at the park 

classy. 

eating her friend Kalyn's popcorn, she wouldn't eat the funnel cake.. WHAT?!  

LOVES cheese 

donielle and I attempted to make caramel apple pops… they didn't really turn out. 

went to the new outlets with my parents (birthday present). A got to play on rides with Pop :) 

eating a cookie, sitting outside waiting for Daddy to come home 

playing in Daddy's car  

french braid! 

this was the night Ainsley was officially put on probation from eating meals out.  

still working on the whole utensil thing. eating "noo-noos": noodles 

a glimpse into her teenage years 

girl time 

she likes to lay her blanket out on the pink side and lay on it. she also likes me to lay on it with her. 

gathering acorns in her measuring cup. she brought them in to "cook" in her play kitchen 

yes she has crocs. we don't wear them in public, don't worry. just outside around the house. 

my favorite niece stopped by for a visit!!! 

Now, the CUTEST thing she does right now is at night she likes to see the moon. And when she sees it, she holds her hands up, reaches up and says "HOLDER?" I would love to grab that moon and let her hold it. she would be so happy:) 

Today she also pointed to the rust on the chairs in the playset outside and said "owie" :) 

and the wind started blowing and she said "WINDY!" 

Philip was changing her diaper and on her own she said "Shooo-weee!" and covered her nose. Just guess which parent she learned that one from:) 

She loves to point to jacksons tail, then to her bottom and say "Ainsley's tail" 

She feeds all her babies. saying their name as she gives them a bite. "Hippo. Cheetah. Elmo. Minnie. Baa (sheep). " then before she takes a bite she says "Aasley" :) it's so cute. 

she knows her colors, including aqua, and loves to walk around naming everything and its color.  

she knows all the characters to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and loves the hot dog dance. she also knows all the sesame street characters. She really only watches mickey on TV but has lots of mickey and elmo books. 

she does so many funny things during the day, Philip and I are constantly cracking up at her.
