Not that we were doing anything exciting, unless you think laundry and house work is exciting, but none the less it was a busy day. Ashton had fun outside with Eli and Alayna has almost started to walk! Yep! She started really taking steps this weekend and today she pushed it a little farther and took several steps before she fell down. I think she will be walking before her birthday for sure.
I have decorated my mantel with my fall decor and I really like it. I have added a scarecrow and a pumpkin to our front porch. Ashton likes to check on him...just in case he decides to go somewhere I guess? We have a pretty mantel over our fireplace and I think I'm going to really enjoy it during the holiday season. I am excited to get the kids stockings hung up;) Shawn has been busy with work lately. He has been working with two other credit unions besides his full time job at his credit union. He is getting some great experience, which is great for him.
I took Alaynas picture in her rocking chair tonight, she thinks she is such a big girl. She kept trying to get down, and then she did! She just slid right off and stood there...I was like "OK then!" I guess I didn't have to worry about here falling after all. She is getting attached to her "baby." She has a little pink doll that she likes to hold and hug, it's really cute. If you ask her "where is baby?" She will put down what ever she is doing and go look for her.
I'll leave you with an Ashton quote from tonight....he told Shawn that he was getting "swallowed" we just looked at each other like "what?" The as he began to tell us more, we realized that he was talking about his ant bites getting swollen. HA! He is such a funny little guy:)
