She Looks Like Tim...

...But sometimes this child acts like me.

For as much as Ashley looks like her daddy, today I saw some of me in her...
No, not the picture above, but the way she acted today about shopping and when we went shopping.  

I told her after breakfast that we were going shopping with Nana today and she went and got her purse and carried it Sophia Petrillo style.  (This picture is from tonight before bed.)
Upon arrival at the Outlet Mall, when we got off at the exit, she smiled and began clapping her hands.  When I got out of the car I got her out and put her in the stroller.  I couldn't even buckle  her in before she was shouting, "GO!  GO!!"  All the while lunging forward as if to make the stroller move. She couldn't wait for the bargains that were awaiting her!

Once we got up on the sidewalk and went into the Carter's store she said (or yelled), "I NEED!  I NEED!!"  Ah, my lil shopoholic! 

Here she is tonight before bed, bottle feeding her farm animals.  See the others waiting for their turn?
I love her so much.  She will give kisses on demand but if you are greedy she will try to pull your nose off of your face. And she will laugh maniacally while doing so. Jenna was the unlucky recipient of such an action this morning, all the while Ashley shouted, "EVIL!"  (I wish I was kidding.)

Thanks for commenting today. I'm glad to hear that it'll get better. Boy, does this girl have a scream on her!

I can't believe how big she's getting.. and how much she looks like you!!! Faith, does not understand the value of money - so she could be a shopaholic - she just hasn't really gotten into clothes yet. WHEW!!!!

We went to the outlet mall this week too. Carter's was having a great sale. I could have bought more! I hope you found some good bargins.

"Evil"...oh my. That made me laugh out loud. Noah's getting to that point sometimes...
