Ok, you caught us, we are on a 6 month blog lag. I will try to just give a general update for the Ashley clan. Emaline is doing really well. Her language and communication in general are advancing every day, and it is a joy to spend time with her. She is also beginning to say her ABC's, count from 1-10, and identify colors. I have started to tour preschools, but have decided to wait until the fall before we enroll her. She has transitioned to calling us "Mommy" and "Daddy" and has a bit of British accent when doing it (very funny). She is cutting the first of her two-year molars, but otherwise has been healthy lately. Halloween brought us a Super Girl! Thanksgiving and Christmas were each a lot of fun this year, as was New Year's Eve. (No, she does not need glasses, but she does enjoy the new frames Santa brought her!) She really enjoyed spending time with family and friends during all of the special events this season.
Grandma Ginny was kind enough to lend out Jimmy's cowboy boots that he wore as a child. One could say these boots were made for walking, but in reality Jimmy wore these so much when he was a kid that the have no tread left! Indeed, these boots were made for slidding and falling down. We will work hard to update more often as the funny things she does and says are piling up, but I can't remember them when I sit down to post!
