Welcome back!

Wow...its been F-O-R-E-V-E-R since I've written a new post. I believe its been since before Ashlynn was born. And...um...she's going to be ONE in a couple of weeks! YIKES!

Being a mommy is INCREDIBLE! It definitely has its challenges, but Ashlynn is worth every minute! There are no more spontaneous outings, late dinners, or other things we used to be able to do, but we wouldn't change it for the world!

Ashlynn is such an easy child. She has always gone to bed early (around 6-7) and sleeps a good 12-13 hours a night. Granted, she still wakes up once to eat, but she goes right back to sleep. She is so happy and HILARIOUS! We are so blessed to have such a wonderful daughter!!

For her birthday we are planning to have a monkey party. She has monkeys in her room decor, and has many monkey toys. The theme is so cute and our cake is going to be even cuter! We registered for her gifts today at Laura's Family Goods. Its this new store in town with the cutest kids toys and home decor. Ashlynn probably won't have a clue who gave her what and could probably care less about a party, but will play with her toys until she is worn out! She LOVES to play and she plays HARD!

As for me, I'm FINALLY done with school and studying! I graduated in December with my Masters in Nursing and a week and a half ago I passed my APN boards! HOORAY! I'm working at Central Arkansas Pediatrics as a Nurse Practitioner there and love it so much!

I'll try to do better at posting now that I don't have to study! I still keep up with others' blogs, just haven't really had time for mine...That will change! :)
