Splishity Splashity!!!

Aunt Deanna, Uncle Robin, and Cousin Jaren sent Ash the greatest toy for his 1st birthday!!!  Ash LOVES to splash... in dog water bowls, in tubs, in sinks, in dishwashers... and now, in his very own waterfall pool!!!

So far, we've logged about 6 hours in this magical toy. :) Thanks to the Colorado peeps!

12 month vaccines = Bandaid flags

Ash got his 12 month check up and vaccines today, plus 3 dinosour bandaids.

On our way home, he ripped off two of them, ate one, and proudly

showed me the other as he waived it like a flag.

This was probably the only time I had ever actually wished for a red light :)

More baby birdies are coming...

They're at it again. The little love doves.

This little couple have created quite a few lives in the 1.5 years we've lived here. The nest is nuzzled perfectly under the boganveia and stays pretty protected, since we rarely access the side yard. I love thier sounds in the morning. And the momma is always so patient with me. I try to talk softly as I approach the gate, to not startle her. I can't wait to see her new little batch of babies. :)
