Yay! We are so excited to be having a girl! I am due March 26th. Ashton is excited to have a baby sister. Last night he wanted to get something behind the couch I was laying on so he said, "Mom can you move so I can get a blanket and not smash your baby." It was about the funniest thing I have ever heard him say so matter-of-factly. He continues to crack us up every day.
Since I am going on about Ashton, I might as well write a few more things Ashton has been up to for our own memories...
-His favorite movie right now is Toy Story. He watches it at least once a day. Lately he has been playing with his own Buzz Light Year and re-enacting parts from the movie. Some of the funniest phrases he says are, "I'm not flying, I'm falling with style." And the best one was on Sunday when he decided to tell his cousin Canyon he wasn't going down the stairs "because they'll be expecting that!" So he tried to climb down the rock wall and got stuck! We had a good laugh over that one. We got him some Buzz Light Year PJ's for him and when he has them on he can fly. He pushes a button on his chest and his wings pop out! We saw him doing that in his room standing on his bed and had to get out the video camera for it. It's even funnier when he pushes his button again to put them away. Then when we tried to get him to show someone the next day he couldn't do it because, "I don't have my Buzz Light Year jammies on!"
-He will pick up on big words and incorporate them into his play. The latest word is "punish." He will play with his super heroes and just use the word over and over in the wrong context. It doesn't make any sense to us at all but it is pretty funny to listen to him.
-He still rubs our faces to fall asleep at night, in the night, in the morning, and whenever he is drinking out of a sippy cup.
Here are some pictures of Ash's first dance performance. There wasn't much dancing to be had, but lots of good laughs. I videoed him doing it in class today and was amazed at how he could do the whole thing! His next performance is on Wednesday at a care center, so we will see if he has figured out to watch his teacher instead of wander around and look off the edge of the stage! :) At least he stayed out there and didn't cry, right? It could have been worse I guess!
