The Birthday Girl!

Our little Princess Ashlyn Christiana turned 5 years old yesterday! She had been looking forward to her big day for months. I have been calling her the Birthdaygirzilla. :) Ashlyn is a total girly girl. She wants everything to be pink. I spent forever curling every piece of hair on her head with a curling iron yesterday only to have it look straggly and unbrushed immediately upon finishing. (See the above photos for proof.) I used tons of hairspray too. I think she is like Whitney and has hair that doesn't hold curl. I am horrible with hair and need some advice. Please help me!



Chris was heartsick because he is currently in school for an instructor pilot course and had to be to work at 5 a.m. He left her these flowers, donuts and a card. Really we should have just given her a can of frosting for her birthday breakfast. She had preschool on her big day and she couldn't wait to go and tell everyone it was her birthday.


Ashlyn had already taken several tastes of her ladybug cake by the time I got this picture taken. She chose to eat at Cracker Barrel for her birthday dinner.


She got this double baby stroller and a new sister for Whoopsie Doo! Her name is still under consideration. She has thought about Pony Pie, Sweetie Pie and Coopsie. I guess only time will tell what she decides upon. This little girl loves, loves, loves babies!!! The newer they are the more she loves them. She talks about being a Mommy someday all the time. Whenever she sees a new baby she always says, "Mom, don't you wish that was our baby?" She was so cute talking to her new baby doll. She kept saying things like "Mommy loves you so much, you little cutie!" and " Don't worry - I'm going to take good care of you!"


She requested a motorcycle ride. I wasn't too thrilled that Chris didn't bother to put helmets on either of them but he said he went really slow just around the block. Though Ashlyn kept screaming "Go faster Daddy!"


She has been dying for a PillowPet since June. She said, "When your child holds their pillow pet they will fall in love." Looks like she did too.
