Spring is here!

The last couple of days have been really warm.  We've had the windwos open since it has been in the 80's, but today is was so stuffy that we stayed in the basement for the majority of the day.  I put most of her 0-3 month stuff away today and washed all her 3-6 month clothes.  While I was putting the 0-3 month stuff away, I pulled out one of her newborn onesies and it is so hard to believe that it was too big on her at one time.  While giving her a bath tonight, I noticed that she has really grown.  I know she's grown, but she looked huge tonight.  She is changing so much and it's so hard!  I was able to sit in the basement this afternoon and hold her on my chest for two hours while she took a nap.  I haven't been able to do that in a couple weeks, because as soon as she would get done with her bottle, she would want out of my arms.  I'm looking forward to many more naps with her snuggling with me in the future!

We had a pretty busy week.  I've been busy with work, so Mom came up Tuesday, Dad came up Thursday, and I took her to Jennifer's on Wednesday.  Of course, she slept the entire day for Mom.  I don't know what it is about Mom, but every time she comes up, Ainsley sleeps while she's here.  It was so funny to see her with Dad.  She smiles every time he talks to her.  If he would get up to do something, she would follow him and wouldn't take her eyes off of him!

Ainsley had an exciting day on Wednesday with Aunt Jennifer and Drake.  She pooped that morning, so Jennifer told Drake, and of course, he had to go over to watch while she changed her diaper.  Drake is obsessed with poop.  If anyone goes to the bathroom, he wants to see it and flush the toilet!  Jennifer could see it was green when she opened up the diaper, and quickly found out she wasn't done pooping.  She said she looked over at Drake and he was gagging and thought he was going to throw up from seeing the poop!  She didn't know if she was going to have to clean up a poopy diaper and throw up, but luckily, Drake didn't throw up.  Once she got Ainsley cleaned up, she had to call me, and of course, Drake couldn't wait to tell me that "Ainsley's poop was green, and I gagged!"  I called Joel to tell him (he won't let Drake flush after he goes to the bathroom, and knows of his obsession), and he said "Good, maybe he won't want to look at everyone's poop now".  I thought the same thing, but when I went to pick up Ainsley later that afternoon, Drake was laying on the living room floor watching cats poop on a toilet on Youtube!  Jennifer said he was watching Mickey Mouse and she has no clue how he ended up with cats pooping, but he couldn't wait to show me all the videos he found!  I'm sure both Drake and Ainsley will appreciate that story in a few years.


Ainsley's ready to go visiting with Aunt Jen

Jennifer and Drake took Ainsley to visit Bill and Bettigail, Aunt Jo, and Envirovac.  She said Drake did a little better than the last time, and wasn't as jealous.  Although, he did tell her that Ainsley needed to go home a few times.

Saturday we went to Springfield to meet Aunt Kay, Aunt Sudi, Abby and JD for lunch.  We had a good time at lunch, and then went to Hobby Lobby to look for wedding decorations for Abby.  She found a few, and hopefully in the next few months, she decides on the rest of the decorations!
