A Cause for CeLeBRaTioN!!

We are celebrating because Isaac has taken his last test and we found out a couple days ago that HE PASSED!! Whew! What a relief! So, he is officially in the Ph.D. program and we are here in school for 4 more years...wait...that's exciting...right? While it does seem like a long time, we are excited and think it is the right thing. I am so proud of the HARD work and COUNTLESS hours Isaac has put in over the last YEAR!! We are now going to EnJoY our 2 week break!

Everone is glad when Daddy's home when they wake up from naps
Matching!

We love summer and popsicles!


and bubble baths


This is how Kason holds Asher. He gets a pillow and more or less just lets Asher lay on his legs, but he is so proud when he does it. It is fun to see them getting more comfortable with each other. Kason is very aware of Asher and calls him "Asher baby". I love having him ask where Asher is and making Asher laugh, cuddling up to Asher on the floor, talking to Asher and trying to make him happy.

Asher is 4 months old now! He has his check up in a few days and I am excited to see what this boy weighs!


Ready for church

Congratulations!! I was so happy to hear that (yesterday-I couldn't wait and talked to my mom)! Glad you have some free time now. Sadly for us, 4 years is starting to sound short. After the 1st week of advising and meetings Bret came home and sounded like we were going to be here forever pretty much.
The boys look really cute all matching! I bet that's fun. Asher definitely looks older. Miss you guys!

Romney Family said...

Mckay said Isaac called and told him the good news! I am sure all that hard work paid off and so happy for you guys! It really is a cause for celebration!! The boys sure do look cute, and Kason seems to have really taken to Asher, I think it is so cute to watch siblings care for each other...Payton is always telling Taylor that "Payton is here", when he is a little fussy! You look great too Lindsey. Hey, looks like you got a BUMBO, do you like it?

Sarah said...

Yeah- what an accomplishment. It is a long haul, but I think it will be worth it. And hey, it seems to be a pretty good time to be in school, since the job market is so... unsteady, right?

Liz said...

That's awesome! A little glimpse at the end of a long tunnel!! Way to go Isaac! Your boys sure are cute!

Oh my goodness, I cannot get over Asher's leg, they are just chubo chubo! Love it! They are such cute little boys, I love the matching outfits. How exciting that Issac got into the program and passed his tests. Andrew will be done with his Masters in Dec and Ed. Specialist next summer and I'm so ready to have him done with school! So I feel ya, but 4 years will fly by and will be so worth it!

Marci said...

Yay! You guys both deserve to relax and enjoy this accomplishment for a while. Congratulations on the test and for having such a beautiful family.

Fun Conrats Issac. Way to go. I'm glad you guys are enjoying the little time you have together. Asher looks huge I can't wait to see how big he is. You look so good Lindsey. It is so fun when we get to match the girls. It is my favorite.

Congrats! That must be a relief to know he passed. Asher is such a sweet, fat chunk. I hope we can see him someday. Let us know how much he weighs. Walker is over a month past his 4 month checkup. And Luke loves "trying" to hold Walker and love on him too. It's so sweet.

Congratulations, that's really exciting! I love the matching outfits-I'm excited to get Dakota and the new baby into some matching ones, too!

Stephanie said...

Wow, I didn't know he was going for a PhD! That's great that he passed his test. He is brilliant after all - we all knew that. You will all do great. :)
Love how Kason holds Asher! So cute!
