July has been very exciting! For the Fourth, Asher and I decided last minute to go to the Provo parade. We were 30 minutes late, but I thought since we were at the very end of the route it would be ok. We got to see most of it, but they changed the route from previous years and so where we were there were a bunch of power lines so we couldn't see some of the bigger floats. But we still had fun!
This was my favorite thing of the whole parade! A stagecoach being pulled by little ponies!
Our annual parade selfie!
I only wanted to haul one chair around, so Asher and I took turns sitting down. He had a lot of fun looking at the horses and pointing out all the instruments in the marching bands!
Weekend of the fourth, David and I spent lots of time painting Ashers bed. David and I built it (mostly David...) and it was such a long process because of school and vacations so we couldn't work on it very consistently. But it finally got done!
I would really love a garage so we don't have to paint in our living room.
The mattress! I love how they package it up nice and small so we could fit it in our little car. Asher was super excited!
Rolling out the mattress, making sure it fit right.
Asher loves helping David! I was a little emotional and may have shed a few tears during this process. Asher's crib was about the last thing from his baby-hood and it made me very sad that those days are over!
His bed has a little space under the mattress that is just perfect for food storage!
This is the video David took for his mom. Asher was so excited for his new bed! He sleeps on it pretty good and for a few days was very possessive and didn't want anyone else on it. He likes it, he doesn't look so cramped like he did when he was in his crib, and I like it because he entertains himself for a little while in the morning before coming out of his room so I get to sleep in a little bit longer! Overall, it's good that it happened but it still makes me sad that he's growing up. Next month he turns 3 so I'll probably be doing another post all about how much he's grown!
You guys did such a great job on that bed! It's always sad and happy when you transition to new stages with your kids. Enjoy each new phase as much as you can. Love you!
Way to graduate from a crib to a bed! Good job David and Abby on making that! We made one just like it for nathan last winter! I never thought of using that space for food storage!! Genius. I'm copying. I like the head board. YAY!
