Since I have been out of school for the last week on potato harvest break, Ashlyn and I have had soooooo much fun together! I love being able to stay home with her and it definitely confirms my desire to be a stay at home mom after this year of teaching. We've kind of had a routine this week and one of the things we do after she wakes up from her naps is go feed the ducks at the nature park. Fun, right? Well, not the last few times! I don't know what it is but I think the ducks can smell fear! Ever since I was little I've had a fear for ducks. All the pictures of me feeding the ducks with my parents is either me crying or me on my dad's shoulders. So, with Ashlyn, I've tried to face my fears and this is what happens.............

Not exactly ideal! Haha, I think that the ducks are also VERY hungry right now because my mom hasn't been going down every day to feed them, and it's also getting close to winter. They don't normally act like this but this last week has been very interesting:) Ashlyn was scared too. 

Yay for the slide!

So Ashlyn has recently become very attached to her slide. My cousin Heidi was over one day when I was talking about buying Ashlyn a slide and she said that her old one was in her dad's basement so she brought it over! Totally awesome:) If you can't really tell, there is Oreo all over Ashlyn's face too, this is her favorite cookie:) Her dad has taught her well.
