Serious Ashton

Who would have thought a 4 year old could be so competitive. Look how serious his face is. I got a Wii Fit for christmas and we have been having a ball with it. Last night we were having a Wii Fit family night.....hehehe. We had alot of fun with the Ski Jump. Ashton really got into that one. He was pulling off some decent scores for such a little kid. I had more fun watching him and his little stance.

.....and then came Ashton's Birthday

Hard for me to believe that Ashton is already 4 years old. It really doesn't seem like he has been with us that long. He was such a tiny baby and we can still scoop him up and hold him like a baby. He has grown 3 inches this year for a total of 39 whole inches and he has gained 1 whole pound for a whopping 29lbs. Such a big boy, LOL. He amazes us everyday and we love how he makes everyone around him smile, such a character.




Breanne is enjoying a brief break away from the babies to share Ashton's birthday with him.

A Wonderful Christmas

We had a wonderful christmas at the Lee Family Home...... it was a delight to have the twins at our house. I think everyone had a good time and we loved spending it together. We had Breanne's family and Jake and Andie for christmas dinner. Everything came out great and tasty, lots of smiles were had by all. Clare was so excited to get a chain saw. He said your not a real man until you have a chain saw......ok hon, I guess your a 'real' man now. Ashton cheered after every package he opened so we must have done a good job. The babies played with their sillytown and were having a great time. I can't believe they are already standing. How time flys, it was their first christmas and it was alot of fun.

Long awaited update..............

I really need to get better at updating my blog. I spend way too much time on Facebook. Now I've missed over 6 months of things that have gone on in our home and with our cute little guy. So here is my attempt to be better at updating in the New Year. Ashton sure LOVES the snow. He goes out and plays in it every chance he gets. Not like his mother. I rather be inside where its warm. Must get that part from his canadian father. He can spend an hour in our back yard just digging around and exploring. Ashton and Clare made this silly snowman last week.....Ashton was so proud of it. Nate, my grandson, and Ashton also love sledding. I'm sure we have lots more snow to come.

Happy News Years to all my loved ones near and far. I hope that 2010 brings better things to everyone. 2009 has been a struggle for many. I know that with family and friends I have been able to keep my chin up and my sights straight ahead. No use making myself sick over the past even though that is what I tend to lean towards.

Happy Easter!

Ashton enjoyed his Easter. It is getting more and more fun to do these things with him. He gets so excited and he really makes me and Clare laugh. We love his preception of things. We spent dinner with Derick, Breanne and the kids. Doesn't that sound funny. I never would have believed Breanne would have had "kids". I had begun to think that I would have 1 grandchild. This was the first Easter without Jake for me. He had Easter with his girlfriends family. It is always sad when your children grow up and have lives of their own. But with all the little ones around me, I will get to do all the fun things over again. So I get the best of both worlds.

Ashton at Cheanne's Birthday

My funny boy. I think he had a great time. Actually I know he did because he didn't want to go home. All morning, before we went, he kept asking me if he was going to get to have ice cream and cake. It looks like it is pretty exciting to be 3.
