Hanging with Ashlyn

I spent the last two days hanging out with the most adorable two year old redhead. I say hanging out as opposed to what her mom and dad call "babysitting" because she pretty much runs things. Lollipops after breakfast? Sure. Jumping on mom and dad's bed? Why, yes! And I couldn't help but snap some pics of her (sorry, your kids are free game to my camera when you invite me in as a babysitter). Before sharing, I just have to clear a few things up first. #1 - She was the one that wanted to stay in her pajamas all day. #2 - She is the one that talked me out of my boots and her into them...

Sheer preciousness.




for some reason posing required singing... love it!



on the bench her daddy built





cheeks!



she told her momma the story about the bubble on the monkey's head when she got home. :)

and then she started to get really excited and began to run around the yard...

...maybe a little too excited for her feet (or it could have been the hand-me-down crocs from Bella that she had to wear that were still a little too big that caused the tumble.)

no harm done. all is still swell.



hugs for mom.
