ASHLYN: When Ashlyn met her new baby brother Damon for the first time, she asked her dad, How long do we get to keep the baby for? We told her, forever, so she was pretty happy about that.

ASHLYN: Ashlyn's little mind was really thinking alot while I was pregnant. The other day she says, " Mom, will your baby be my baby when I get big?" I said, "No, my baby will still just be your little brother when you are big." So she asks, "So who will be my kids when I am older." I tell her that we don't know her kids yet because they still live up in heaven with Heavenly Father. And then of course she asks, "When will I get my kids?" So I tell her that one day when she gets married she will be able to have kids. So then, very randomly, she asks, "Where is my married ring?" (Obviosly she realizes that when you get married you wear a ring.) So I told her that when she meets a really nice boy, he will ask her to marry him, and if she says yes, he will give her a ring. I just think it is really funny the way little girls think. Blake would have never asked a question like that! But she is really excited to have a baby when she is older.

ASHLYN: Ashlyn has a favorite song on the radio right now, which is "Party in the USA" by Miley Cyrus. Everytime we get in the car this song comes on. She loves it and sings along with it everytime. Well we recently drove down to Utah to visit my parents, and both of the kids were asleep in the backseat. Suddenly Ashlyn's song comes on, and she pops right up and starts singing. As soon as the song was over, she was out cold again. And don't get me wrong, she wasn't just resting her eyes or anything, she was honestly asleep, woke up for that song, then fell right back to sleep. How funny!
