All dressed up and somewhere to go

On our last day with my mom here we went to Chevy's for dinner.

Here's Jane all dressed up.


The boys got home-made ice cream cones there.

Gavin was pretty silly with his.

Purple

Jane is by far our skinniest baby. I don't get how she and Gavin weighed the same at birth.


Check out those scrawny legs!

No these aren't her fingers, their her toes. (Her pinky toe is just like Logan's was, it curls under)

Jane likes to sleep

I found Jane like this today. Someone thought she needed to rest with Spiderman. She was embarrassed.


All bundled up for bed last night.

Already admiring her daddy.

It's Halloween time!

Ethan took the boys trick or treating. Gavin did NOT like wearing the jacket so he just wore the pants. Logan was supposed to be Darth Vader but he changed his mind to Batman at the last second. Jane wore her Halloween onesie.

Jane the potato head.


Papa and Jane taking snooze.

"I have a question!"

Typical Jane, Happy one minute...

Mad the next...Papa and Gavin.
Gavin sure loved playing with his Papa

More pictures

Here are a few more pictures to keep you entertained.

Once Jane was born Ethan went over to go take her picture. He made the mistake of glancing at the placenta in the bowl and had to go sit down so he wouldn't pass out.

Omi cut the cord again.

Papa watched from the sidelines and took lots of pictures for us.

Epidurals work really good on me so I asked my mom to put my hair up since I couldn't sit up very well and use my arms at the same time :)

We were at the hospital WAY too long for both our liking. We had to wait for Jane to poop, which she didn't do until 7:00pm the next night. So we got home late. Logan didn't care about seeing me. First thing he said when I walked in was, "where's the baby?"

Gavin was asleep when we got home so he didn't meet Jane till the next morning. He just smiled and so far hasn't paid much attention to her. Logan on the other hand wants to hold her all the time.

More picures can be found here.

See Jane, see Jane born

The moment you have all been waiting for...

Here's Jane Bluth
8 pounds 7 ounces
21 inches long

Born 10/26/09 11:45 am


Aunt Nicky made her a chocolate covered Strawberry hat.
(And here's the outfit Rachael gave her before we even knew we were having a girl).

My dad took a lot of pictures on his camera, so I'll get those updated later.

Circle themed cards

Last month our theme was to use circles for our cards. Mine is the top right corner.

Halloween cards

I was so excited about my cards this time. Check them out!

The front of mine: (I hand drew all the webs)

The inside of mine: (The boo pops out when you open the card.)

Other cards from the group swap...

Big boys take showers

Logan really wanted to use my camera today so I had him take a picture of Gavin because his face/hair/hand was filthy from eating a donut for breakfast.

Unfortunately, Logan only got a good shot of his rear end.

So I intervened with a better one.

And because I've been sick all week, we haven't done anything, but hang around the house. This is a typical night. Playing on the bed.

Sunday Sunday Sunday!

I stayed home from church today while the boys went because I wasn't feeling well.

(I haven't missed church since I had Gavin).


This weekend Ethan and I changed things around a bit. We moved Gavin into Logan's room.

He hung up these shelves for Gavin's side of the closet.

And he put Gavin's crib under Logan's bed.

Today, like any other Sunday, consited of:

Zoe wanting to play with us.


Logan deciding that he wants to play with Zoe. (Plus my belly getting in the way of the picture).

Gavin walking around now instead of crawling.

And Gavin playing with a Domino like it's a phone.

So You Think You Can Dance

Gavin likes this show...

Smile Gavin!

I asked Gavin to smile and this is what I got...


His mischievous face.

Logan would not take a non-goofy picture, this was the best I could do. Both were not cooperating for me.

My baby shower

Photos courtesty of Bella Bean Photography

My friend Jenna threw me a great baby shower. The theme was 'Ashley's about to POP' so everything had to do with POP.

Here she is laughing because they were trying to pop their balloons against each others stomachs.

This is my great photographer Shannon.
Aren't these pictures wonderful?

This picture cracks me up.

Me with Torrie and Jenna. I should say that Torrie helped a ton in the shower planning as well. Thanks Torrie!

Torrie made these cute chocolate covered "pops".
They aren't easy so I feel lucky she made them for me!
Me at 35 weeks prego. I've got 1 month left.

New Baby Book!

I got a cool package in the mail the other day from Blink Blots.

My very own custom designed baby book!

It came in this cute box, wrapped up very snug.

Each page has all the necessary stuff and none of the stuff that you'll never fill out anyway.
(Like Gavin's baby book goes up to his 4th birthday. Yeah right I'm going to be filling it out by then!)

My favorite was the little envelope for the baby's hair. I remember my baby book having that, but neither of the boy's do.

Another cool thing is that it comes with it's own matching pen! And it's a nice pen too. The pages aren't glossy so it won't smear and inside the box are clear page protectors that you slide on after you finished a page.
I know these will come in handy when the feet get stamped in there. I had to put clear contact paper in Gavin's so that the feet wouldn't smudge the other side.

She thought of everything when making these baby books! The fabric was designed by Lichen Frank herself and there are many other styles to choose from. She can even print your baby's name inside on the front page (we just hadn't decided on ours yet, so there is a line where I fill it in.)

Right now till the end of September you can get $10 off if you mention "Kyla's 1".

Card exchange

I've gotten a little behind in showing the cards we made for our card swap.
I like to take pictures of them so that incase I give them away I'll be able to re make them still.

Theme: Congratulatory


Theme: Happy Birthday


Theme: Baby boy/girl
I'm really excited about the card I made for this next month (theme is Halloween). I feel like the last 2 cards I made were stupid, so get ready for my Halloween card next month. I'll post after I get everyone else's.

Where's Logan?

Yesterday Ethan was at a friend's house watching the Oregon football game and I was napping when he got home. He asked me where Logan was and I told him he was still awake when I napped so I didn't know.

He came back in the bedroom all nervous saying he couldn't find Logan so I shot straight up and saw him sleeping in the computer chair.

Comfy huh?

I just updated my pregnancy blog as well.
