Okay so here are TONS of updates & pictures! My family has been deseperately wondering where I have been & want updates, ASAP! So here is my life the past week!
Between friends having babies, me teaching classes a ton, & being super busy with my little gal- I decided it was time to throw a girls night in the mix!
So, what has Avery been up to?
Ave has been enjoying being a big girl & eating all kinds of goodies- and making huge messes of course too! This past week she wasn't feeling well so we went to the doctor & found out she has allergies & a slight ear infection. We have been treating it with allegra & she seems to be doing much better. I had a long talk with the doctor on introducing her all kinds of foods... maybe this was a big mistake? BYEBYE baby food, hello big girl!
My girlfriend Kim turned 30 this past week! We enjoyed a nice dinner date out of town at this little quaint restaurant with some of her closest friends. It was just perfect!








Another thing keeping me super busy lately is preparing for my big Garage Sale! SUCCESS! I made some good money & sold some junk. I needed to clean out this house! We all had a blast. My 2 sister in law's & friend Alyssa all did the sale together. The kids had a lemonade stand & us adults had fun laughing & enjoying the morning/afternoon!
This guy was SO SO SO nice & made us girls laugh! He was my best customer & was excited to have his picture made with one of the items he bought. I can't wait to go visit him at his wing place! He promised us some free wings!
Mamee watched the babies all day for us Mommies!
I almost sold this little guy in the garage sale. He is getting a little out of hand lately. Maybe because he is jealous of Avery? He barks at everything. He is my little guard dog & freaks when he see's or hears the slightest noise. People walking their dogs run from him because he will growl & scare them off. He is small but can be mean. Don't let the cute little "in the bag" picture fool you. I couldn't find him & had to snap a picture. He curled up in this bag & it made me smile. I didn't sale him, but boy I want to some days.
So I am a little camera happy lately. I won't lie! I just love my new camera & can't stop this addiction! My Avery is turning 1 in 12 days.. I can't stop snapping pictures before she officially turns ONE!
We have really enjoyed the park here lately too! We love walking, getting outside, & smelling the fresh air. Being with my husband & Avery is medicine for this soul!
And speaking of pictures, I am by no means into "photography" & would never have the patience to do it for a living, but LOVE LOVE LOVE taking pictures on my new camera; but only for FUN! These are a few pictures I have taken here recently! I think capturing the most simple things turn out to be beautiful!
I hope each of you are doing very well. Thanks again for stopping by & checking in. I promise to keep you posted on some fun new changes going on!!!!!

Loved all your pictures. Glad you're back! ~Liz =)
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to let you know, I think your photographs are great! I really like the last one.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the garage sale was a success! One of these years I need to get organized and do one instead of just donating everythin to Goodwill! It is just so much easier to just drop it off and be done, ha!
Have a good week!
Ashley, I've never commented before but I am just so glad you are back! I enjoy reading your posts and fun new ideas. My daughter turns 1 on June 23rd so I can't wait to see pictures of Avery's party! Love from Texas!

Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed all the beautiful photos, especially the ones of sweet Avery! What gorgeous eyelashes she has! The camera really caught a great shot of them close up. The park looks like a great place to spend an afternoon. Such pretty scenery. It looks like you and your girlfriends had a really fun time, on your night out. So glad all is going well with you and yours, and can't wait for Miss Avery's party pictures. I would love to squeeze those sweet legs of hers! (that's what grandma's love to do!) Enjoy your day, and thanks for keeping us updated!
ReplyDeleteGlad your back girly! Love all your pics! I'm wanted to get into photography...what kind of camera do you have?

Aww your pup looks sooo similiar to mine! Mine is a mut so we aren't sure what she is exactly...but ours look so close!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your weight loss- I love seeing all your fun new skinny clothes! Can you do me a favor- I have been praying for Melissa and reading her blog daily. I went through a similiar experience and my daughter is now 17 months. I'd love to see pics of Grayson and support Melissa as a new Mom, but noticed she closed her blog. I am not a crazy person :) and would love to keep reading. My email is annajenk@yahoo.com. Would you share my request with her? She can see my blog from my profile to know I am sane :) Thank you!
ReplyDeleteLove your photos! Isn't amazing what a new camera can do!
ReplyDeleteYou look so great, as always. I can't believe Miss A will be 1 in just over a week!!
