I’m a big girl

Last night Ashleigh took one more step to being a big girl. We got home from the gym, I was doing laundry and cleaning, Wes was working, Ashleigh was playing between us. At some point she decided she was thirsty, she got a sippy cup, went to the bathroom, got her stool out, unscrewed the cup lid, filled it with water and put the lid back on.

She ran into our bedroom with a grin the size of California on her face, “Look what I did Mommy! I did it all by myself!” I was so proud, yet so sad….one more thing she can do on her own, and one step further from being a baby. I love seeing her grow up and learn. Each new phase is very exciting, yet I miss the baby she was

But, I do love the big girl she is becoming.
It’s a good time in our house. There are always new adventures and new experiences. I guess that’s the joy of life with a toddler!
