Bottle Time

Joe gives Ashlyn a bottle for the first time... nice work dad! Now we need to work on the diapers :)

Mom & Dad's first night out

First night out for Mommy & Daddy on July 26th. Grandma Deb came over to babysit Ashlyn. We went to Dino's for pizza and then we went to Tim & Angie's for a few drinks. It was nice to get out but we were looking forward to getting home to our little girl :) She slept for grandma most of the evening and slept good that night thankfully! It was also the first night she slept in her crib upstairs!

First Stroller Ride

First time in the stroller... it was a little rough on the gravel road. We'll have to go into town and try the sidewalks when it's not so hot out :)

Bath Time

Ashlyn's first bath...

She really enjoyed it -no crying! We had the heat fan on so the bathroom was nice and toasty and we dried off under the warm air.

And 2nd bath in the big tub...

Photo Shoot With Mary

We had a lot of good pictures from our photo shoot with Great Aunt Mary and Auntie Christy brought along a lot of good props to get all these great shots... thanks you two!
