New Baby Pictures

Here are some pictures from Christmas and more. I have to say, it's really hard to get 2 babies to behave for a cute picture. But we did our best!

The girls had several outfit changes on Christmas, since we had gotten so many cute outfits as gifts.

Here is Parker in her "I love Santa" outfit with Grandpa Brothers

Close up of Olive in hers.

And Santa dresses from Nana.

And of course these Santa outfits that Megan & Jeannette got them. These were so cute we could not stop laughing!!

Aunt Kay & Uncle Rick gave the girls these ADORABLE church dresses, so here they are on their first Sunday to church. It looks like Olive is giving Parker a kiss!

And just for extra cuteness, here is Olive sleeping peacefully.

The Girls Are Here!

The day finally came, and the girls have arrived!

Here are
Olive Kathryn &

Parker Yvonne

Born November 30th at 7:44 and 7:45pm. Olive was 6 pounds 2 ounces and Parker was 5 pounds 10 ounces. Both girls are 19 inches long.

We are all home and doing great! We are so happy they are finally here and we are loving every minute of it.

We all think that Parker looks like Shawn, and Olive like me. But they honestly change daily. Here are some first photos.

Here is a family picture at the hospital. Parker is on the left and Olive on the right

Almost 36 Weeks

Just getting bigger and bigger...the doctor estimates that each baby weighs about 6 pounds now! I'm basically stuck at home since I can barely walk. But we are almost there!

Halloween

A little delayed, but better late than never. Here are some fun photos from Halloween when my nephews, sister-in-law and mom all came to visit us. It was such a fun weekend! And I kept up the best I could!

Here are the boys in their Star Wars costumes ready to hit the party at my work.



I did still fit behind my desk at work then...but I probably would not now!


The boys got their faces painted. Cole with his initials, and Barrett with a blue beard - of course!



There were plenty of treats at the party - Carmel apples, hot dogs, pizza, hamburgers and cotton candy!


We also did some crafts. Here is my mom helping Barrett with pumpkin decorating, and me making a cookie for Shawn.



After the party, we went to meet Shawn at the high school football game (he works as the trainer). The team lost, but we had fun in the stands.


Time for the main event - Trick-or-Treating on Saturday. Shawn went as an extremely accurate and handsome Clark Kent!



The boys with a group of kids from church.


Holly and the boys at an awesome house that was decorated with giant spiders! Hard to see the spiders, but our gang sure looks cute!


Barrett with his haul!


What a fun weekend! Thanks you guys for coming to visit us!!

If anyone has been wondering...I'm huge!! But getting closer everyday!

COLORADO BABY SHOWER!

As the celebration of babies continues, Shawn & I were in CO this past weekend for an absolutely amazing shower put on by our Moms, Aunt Cindy, Aunt Pam & Aunt Judy. They had it at The Ranch Country Club where I grew up and everything was SO beautiful! The room was amazing, the decorations were too cute, and so many wonderful friends and family were there. I had so much fun and loved every minute of it. Thanks to everyone for making it a truly memorable day!

I only wish I had been able to take more pictures - so if anyone got some good ones, please email them my way - ashleysaints@hotmail.com

Here are some pictures of how pretty the room looked. The last one is really dark, but I wanted to show the view of the mountains through the window - WOW!

All the beautiful gifts

Adorable Christmas outfits from Megan & Jeanette


Aunt Judy made the most beautiful blankets, hats and baby ponchos! She is SO talented! Here is Molly wearing one of the hats - SO CUTE!

Yummy cupcakes from Karen and homemade mints by Aunt Judy. And the red velvet baby block cake, so pretty.

My nephews Everett & Reis were able to come towards the end and help polish off some cupcakes.

Here are the proud Grandmas and expert party planners - thanks to them both for everything!!
