Maddie, Mothers and Walks in the Rain

Ashton's new baby cousin and my "niece" Madelynn was born and we got to see her this weekend!! Isn't this a sweet photo with mommy, my cousin Heather?

Last weekend, we spent some time in Augusta and went to our favorite spot, the canal to take a walk.

There were ducks in our pool last week before it opened. They hung out every night and just swam. It was so fun to watch but I haven't seen them this week since the pool opened!

My sweet little monkey on Mother's Day! Only 10 more weeks until we have two little monkeys!!! This weekend, Wes and I went to the Norah Jones concert which was my birthday gift this year and Collin seemed to love it. He is a kicker!

Today Ashton and I were walking Haley and it started pouring rain on us. I kept trying to get him to walk faster but he was really enjoying it. Haley started running back and he was trying to keep up yelling, "I dunno, Raining! Raining! Haley 'scited!!!" No picture, but it was too funny!

A Few Requests

So last week Ashton woke up in the middle of the night which is very unusual. I let him cry a bit and then checked on him. He had a few requests...
1. "Mommy, I want policeman" This is his Little People police "officer" which is actually a woman but we call him policeman with a ponytail and Ashton loves him!
2. "Diaper change" It took me awhile to get over this but yes, he actually asked for a diaper change! I think that means it's time to pottytrain!
3. "See Daddy" We went to see daddy who was asleep but had been gone when I put Ashton to bed that night.
4. "Wanna Rock" so I said, "Ok for a minute" Then he fell back asleep.

Now tonight before bed he says, "Mommy, I wanna rock a minute" I couldn't believe it! So we rocked in our tiny rocker which is not an easy task because it's also with Collin (who was jumping around the whole time), Big Bird, Teddy Bear, Police"man", and Police Doggy who holds a stop sign. It sure is fun having a boy who knows what he wants!
