Spring is in the air!

We are absolutely loving this weather!  Glad to see the rain from yesterday is long gone and we were able to get much needed playtime in outside.  We opened the windows today and it feels so good in the house and nice to smell the fresh air. 

Ashley is slightly obsessed with the little girl that lives across the street.  Her name is Emily, Ashley pronounces it Emma-bee.  Anytime we are outside she wants to go look for Emily and if she is out there she wants to chase behind her while she rides her bike or scooter.  Well today Emily (who is 7 or 8) came over to our backyard to play with Ashley in her playhouse/swing set.  Ashley was in heaven!!!  I was inside making dinner while Justin was in the back yard with them and the squeals of laughter and delight coming from Ashley were precious!  Her and Emily were on the seesaw swing together and I don't think I have seen a bigger smile on that child.  It was the sweetest sound to hear :)

After dinner daddy decided to wash the cars and he had a little helper.  She washed and scrubbed the same little spot on the front bumper for at least 15 minutes.  Her shirt was absolutely soaked but she was having a blast.




We brought Ashley's tricycle up from the basement the other day and she has been "trying" to ride it in the house.  We took it outside and she was riding it back and forth in the garage.  She was doing such a good job with keeping the peddles going.  She amazes me how quickly she changes and grows.  Something she couldn't do a few months ago she is able to conquer now.



And now it is time to head upstairs for bathtime - daddy bought Ashley some Princess bubble bath at the store and she is super excited to take a bath!!
