LOVES AVOCADOS

POTTY TRAINING
Well, I decided it was potty training time when I was giving Ashlyn a bath the other day and she said, "mama poo poo". I was busy cleaning the sink in the bathroom and thought since I had just barely changed her poopy diaper before putting her in the bath tub, that that must be what she was talking about. Moments later I heard her say "ewwww mama poo poo". I turn around...and sure enough there were a few floaters bumping into her toys. It was so disgusting!!! So I hurry and call Tyler in to help me clean stuff up and he takes Ashlyn and stands her on the sink to clean her up, then sure enough she says "tee tee"....and one second later what did she do? That's right all over the sink I had just barely cleaned. It was an exciting day I'll tell you that alright!

JUNE BIRTHDAYS
Okay I know that this post is really late but I just have been pretty busy lately and I really wanted to post these pics of Ashlyn, she was being so cute this day.
In my family, we have tons of June birthdays and mine is one of them. We did a big celebration at my sister Jewel's house for all the June b-days. They got out the slip-n-slide for the little kids to play in and Ashlyn was having a blast playing in the water. She even got to pet there chickens. So fun.
I got the best birthday present ever when I opened my present from Tyler, he gave me Wicked tickets, it was even better when I learned he was going to accompany me. We went the following weekend and it was a blast.

HUMIDITY!!!!!
Well, my fellow bloggers all I can say is sorry that I am a slacker! I don't know why it has been so hard for me to update my blog lately, I used to be so good at it. But don't worry I am determined to be better.
Bradshaw News:
Tyler finished tri 1 with exceptional grades as always (we are so proud of you Ty, thanks for all the hard work!). He has now started tri 2....only 8 more tri's yeah!!!! He recently got to cut up his first cadaver, props to him for not passing out, I know I would have ha! He is absolutely loving it, we made good decision coming here!
Ashlyn and I are having fun as usual. I am just barely starting to get over a little flu bug that I have had for about a week now. Yeah! So far Ashlyn and I have been to the Dallas Zoo, and Fort Worth Zoo with my family and Tyler's mom flew down to visit for a week and we went to the Fort Worth zoo with her. It was so much fun. Ashlyn's favorite part besides seeing the inside of a Hippo's mouth, was feeding the birds. It was so cool, you pay $1 and get a popsicle stick with bird seed on it, and you get to enter the bird cages. So many birds were flying around our heads it was definitely the funniest experience we have had thus far. We also went to the Bodies Exhibit while Tyler's mother was down visiting and it was awesome. Thanks Becky for taking us! It was a little disturbing and morbid, but at the same time extremely educational. I wish I would have had a babysitter for Ashlyn then I would have had a chance to enjoy it a little more. Tyler really loved it, considering he was about to to start his 2nd trimester where they would be dissecting cadavers it was something he really wanted to see and learn about.
Recently, Tyler and I have come to an agreement that we both wanted to live a healthier life, and set a good example for Ashlyn. So Tyler and I agreed to start running, if able, everyday. Or at least work out for 30 minutes everyday. We have almost completely stopped eating out, not that we did it a lot anyways but we now only eat out maybe once a week or every other week. All whole grains, low calorie in take, etc. pretty much be healthy we said. Since we started about a little over a month ago, Tyler has already lost a few pounds.......me on the other hand nothing. What the crap, I know right, that is exactly what I was thinking! One day I weight 5 lbs lighter, the next 5 lbs. heavier. Who knows, I feel better about myself though that's a plus right? We have been running about 2-3 miles a day. I am so proud of us!!!
Ashlyn is growing so fast, and is way smart. She can say way over 150 words (I lost count once I hit 150 ha). She is running, jumping, climbing, singing, twirling, dancing, etc. She is my little sweetheart! I have truly been blessed by my Heavenly Father with this sweet little Angel. She just loves on me and snuggles me all the time, she is just what I needed and currently need. Stay as sweet as you are never change dear!!!!

CAUGHT IN ACTION
I'll keep this short and sweet. I walked into Ashlyn's room the other day and guess where I found her.............?
She is so stinkin' cute, instead of rushing to save her, I risked it all on a pursuit to capture the perfect picture ha.
Oh and the next day guess where I found her? I had let her out on the balcony and turned around to get Jack some dog food. When I turned back around I found her popping a squat in Jack's chair. Let's just say there was some major disinfecting that took place after that ha. She even brought her snacks into the chair and was eating so gross!
She is definitely a climber now, yeah, it's just so exciting for everyone involved! jk

FIRST DENTIST APPOINTMENT
Okay don't judge me, but Ashlyn finally got her first dental exam today! Yes, I know she is 17 months old and that I should of taken her in months ago. But I didn't okay!!! ha Anyways it was so sad, as soon as she saw the Dentist in his scrubs she new something was up. I tried to distract her with the cartoons that were playing but she would not even hear of it! For those of you who have met Ashlyn, you know when she is upset she is upset, there is no in between. To make a long story short she hated the entire thing, I was even a little uneasy when the Dentist grabbed his sharp utensils and put them Ashlyn's mouth to scrap away the tinniest bit of plaque in her mouth. NO CAVITIES, YEAH!!!!! She was totally happy a few seconds after the torture was over cuz the assistant gave her a slinky. Oh how I love that slinky!
Just so everyone knows I am having a blast in Texas!!!! Yes, I miss my family and friends in Utah, the beautiful mountains and the snowboarding, don't get me wrong! With that being said though, it is nice knowing that there is an end to all the school Tyler has been going through. And so far he is doing awesome (I knew he would). And I think we have figured out a big cause to Tyler's migraines. He is allergic to something, we think dust, but we are so blessed that Claritin D helps ha. This whole time we have been going to all these doctor's who had no answers and have put him on all these heavy meds and the whole time he could have just been taking Claritin ha. Oh and Jack loves it too!!!
Ashlyn and I are best buds we go everywhere together. Her favorite place is the park inside the Galleria Mall. She can climb and play with other toys. I know it is so dirty in those public places but I don't seem to care that much since I keep taking her there. She is just so happy and is learning and growing so fast. She is climbing up and down the animals and bridges there. She is also loving going down the slides, she is actually laughing when she goes down, so cute! We also went to this really cool all wooden park with some friends, and Ashlyn and the little boy are now best buds! So people in Utah come visit us so you can see my little girl and how cute she is ha!

FINALLY SETTLED
Well, after Tyler and I picked up and moved in about 2 weeks across country, you could imagine our stress levels being through the roof. We had a lot to worry about like where we were going to live and how we were going to fill our other apartment so we wouldn't have to pay 2 seperate rents (hopefully this makes sense). Thankfully, everything got worked out. We are now living in Irving, Texas which is a lot closer to my family than I had previously anticipated, considering I thought I was going to be living in Dallas, but this is much better! Tyler has already started his classes 2 weeks ago, and is really enjoying it. He even brought home a spine the other day, ha it was so funny. He brought home this huge box, and I asked him "what's in the box?", he simply replied, "you'll see". He pulls out this huge skeleton of a spine haha! He was so proud of it. I am proud too.
Christmas was a lot of fun, I haven't been home for Christmas in 2 years. It could have been a little bit more relaxing if Tyler and I hadn't been apartment searching, but nonetheless it was still nice to be home. Ashlyn had a blast with my parents' horses and big back yard. We all played baseball one of the first days we got there, so much fun! We also hit a pinata on Christmas Eve, which Tyler ended up wearing on his head ha.
