in the morning...

Our normal morning routine lately...Christopher and I TRY to get up around 6am. Our goal is to be ready for work by the time Ash gets up at 7. Today, it was more like 6:30. But that's ok. It really does not take us that long to get ready, but it is sooooooooooo much nicer to have a little extra time in the morning without being rushed. Ashlyn usually wakes up around 6:45. She LOVES to play in her crib and talk to herself...and we LOVE to watch and listen to her on the video monitor. This morning, she was just sitting up staring into the video monitor. It was so cute; almost like she knew we were watching her! She eats her breakfast at 7am (ok, who am I kidding, she DRINKS her breakfast...a bottle of course, remember, we aren't really into food these days). Then she plays with her daddy for a while before he leaves for work. Around 7:30 she comes into the office with me so I can start checking emails...Now that she has started to move, I have to watch her a little more closely. She loves playing with everything she can get her hands on...even my yucky work boxes!
