Ashleys chore chart. I dont know the correct age to start chores, but I think Ashley should start ASAP, I dont want her to be like me, I want her to grow up knowing how to clean and work hard I dont want her to be married and then try to learn how to like what I am doing now. So these are her chores. She gets paid 5 cents per chore and if she does all of them she will earn 25 cents a day, then from that I want to teach her about tithing, saving and spending. Then whenever she wants a toy it will come out of her money.

Docters, Christmas and the after christmas snow

Ashley went to the Drs on Christmas eve. It was her two year check up. She now weights 28 pounds and is in the 75 percentile for weight, She is 3 feet tall, which is the 90th percentile, and she is in the 80th percentile for her head size. Still cant believe I have a two year old I feel way to young to have a two year old. Right now I am learning how to deal with a two year old. She can be the sweetest angel one day and then she can be the worst little brat the next second. Not quite sure how to handle that!

We have been loving Christmas! We had a pretty easy day! We stayed home for Christmas and it was so nice! Ashley decided that she wanted to wake up to see what Santa had brought her, So we got up and opened up presents at our house, Then we went up stairs and opened up presents at my moms house. We also had a yummy breakfast! Thanks Mom! It was strawberry waffles and eggs and sausage!
Here is what Santa brought Ashley for Christmas!
Ashley picked out the stroller right off the bat and loved to drive it around!
We really need to put a pedometer on her stroller to see how many miles she goes every day! That stroller goes every where with us. She LOVES the stroller!
Ashley is opening up her first present of the day
