Ashlynne's Christmas Photos

She loves to get her pictures taken. However, we waited for an hour, and when we finally got in it was hot, and after an outfit change, late for lunchtime and nap-time etc, she was doing really good.

Her pose.

Starting to get tired

Tired, but still doing great.


WOW!! 'tis the season for what?!

Actually, believe it or not, she wasn't mad, but it looks like it. That's the meanest I've ever seen her look. She was only saying cheese. It is so cute! Not one we'll put in our Christmas cards, but stuff like this is what memories are made of!

Marsh Family Photos

My Favorite Time of the year is Christmas... This is what jumpstarts our season. Family Pictures. I love pictures!

Here is a picture of all my in-laws!

Our little Family

Our little Princess!

BBQ Face

I don't like letting her feed herself messy foods... Much to Gwomma's dismay. I don't have time to clean up millions of messes. So, she gets to practice on 'clean foods'.- or at Gwomma's. I decided to outside my comfort zone and let her feed herself her own bbq wing. It was her very first time to eat a wing all by herself. I snapped pictures to prove that I do let her get messy! Well, I did once anyway.

Sooo goood! " I love barbie-cue Mommy!"



Her "Evil Eye" face.

Playin' in the Rain

It doesn't rain very often, so when it does, we LOVE to play in it! This is Ashlynne's excited face! She squeals and clenches her fists... So adorable!

Can I play down the street?

Yuck!! This has to be the Marsh in her... I would have NEVER done this, right Mom? Mom?!




More Reminiscing

Goofy Girl!

I actually forgot about these. This was her first night in her big girl bed. It was four months before she turned two. We had made a big deal about how exciting it was going to be, and how cool she was. She was so excited. She walked right over and climbed in and said "it's my big girl bed, guys!" We did our normal bedtime routine, and she laid down, and went right to sleep. She didn't even try to get up. That came a couple weeks later!

First night in her big girl bed.

THIS is what I woke up to the next morning. I opened the door, and ran for the camera. I didn't touch the "scene"! This was all her, including the hat!

Just Reminiscing...

Ok. I was looking back at some old photos and I couldn't resist...


Haha! She had peed so much that her diaper was too full... It overflowed to her bed, and then Our little princess moved over in her sleep! That's my girl! She actually is a clean freak. If she knew this happened, she would have weeped and wailed until we fixed it! Won't she love this when she's older?!

Drinkin' Gwoppa's chocolate milk from her goofy straw from Na.

At Gwomma and Gwoppa's house trying to go outside. She always was a monkey, climbing up everthing. Look out Uncle David... future rock climbing buddy! Haha, a girl nontheless! Aren't you proud?!

She loves mirrors. With every bow and every outfit, she checks out front and back and says " Do I look cute?" She has no idea!!

Ashlynne's Dance Class

We signed Ashlynne up for Tap, Dance, and more Tumbling. This was my big girl walking out the door carrying her own dance bag. I never thought this day would come. Everyone elses kids grow up, but surely not ours! She turned around after she got out the door, and said "Come on mommy! We have to go to dance class!"


Ashlynne is the one to the right of the teacher. She loves to do the shuffle.

Eatin' a cookie afterwards.

Walking With the Dinosaurs

We went to the Walking With the Dinosaurs show. There were about fifteen different life size dinosaurs. Each one looked so realistic- their eyes blinked, their heads moved up and down, their mouths opened, they made dinosaur noises... It was absolutely amazing. Ashlynne has been crazy about dinosaurs ever since.

The coolest opening scene ever...

Da Mommy dinosaur and da baby dinosaur! The mommy one saved da baby one- white dis! (like this!) Ashlynne reinacts this almost every day. Oh, and the part where the dinosaur pooped! She watched it pooped and Ashlynne announced VERY loudly, "dat dinosaur pooped! It was a Big o poop! Did you see it Daddy?! It was HUGE! The man kicked it, white dis!"

These dinosaurs were about forty feet tall. They were incredible!

Daddy and Ashlynne during intermission

Awww!

Colorado Trip

This is more from our Colorado Trip. We stopped to visit the family- Here is Ashlynne with Great Great Uncle Jim and Aunt Raylene.

This was taken in Vail, Co. Great Pa built this. Great job for a Great Pa!

Our little sleeping beauty. Our hotel in Vail was awesome. It was a four star hotel- complete with underground heated parking! Ashlynne slept in the other big bed in our room. She looked so tiny!


Kickin' it on the rock outside our hotel.

Fort Collins, Colorado

We spent two weeks at Fort Collins, Colorado. It was so beautiful. It got really cold for a couple of days, and It felt like Christmas. Weird, I know, but hey. I love to visit the cold weather, but so glad I don't live in it.

She is crazy about dinosaurs-

So adorable!

Canadian Geese right outside our hotel- Ashlynne LOVED them!

First Bowling Adventure

We went bowling with Aunt Na and Todd. Ashlynne got tired of the kiddy bowling, so she decided to bowl like us. While she was NOT bowling...


Who's Daughter...?!

Snackin' with Daddy

Aww!

N-Sync!

Talkin' with "My Todd"

Our little mechanic? I hope not!


Just something cute...
I was cleaning out Dustin's truck, and Ashlynne was in the front "being good"... haha! I peeked over the seat to see what she was doing... She had gotten his screwdriver out of the glove box, and was underneath the steering column unscrewing the trailer brake box thingie. I said "Ashlynne Trinity Marsh!" she answers in her little not so innocent voice-" I'm just skewing dis for my dad!" She loves to fix things. She knows they always either need a screwdriver, or batteries! Scary thing is, she actually did unscrew it! Dustin is sooo proud!

Ashlynne and Baby Conner

Our best friends, the Greco's, moved to Utah. While they were loading the U-haul, I brought Conner home with us and he and Ashlynne got to 'hang out'. Hayley was at her aunts, so no pics with her:(
Conner has charmed Ashlynne, and it looks like the feeling is mutual!

We miss you guys!!


Ashlynne LOVES "her baby Conner"!
