2

Asher turned 2 !!



When Isaac got home we opened presents. This boy loves to draw. He always comes up to us and asks us to draw a "car" or "sowman" (snowman). He also always writes and eats with his left hand now.

"Driving" his new car around the apartment.

The boys took an impromptu bath to try out the new bath fountain from
Grandma and Grandpa. Kason loves it. Asher loves it too, except for the red guy who squirts water out horizontally. That one freaks him out, so now he yells "yeyow guy, yeyow guy!" which sprays the water upwards.


His (kind of) soccer ball cake.


They have become best buds and Asher was kind enough to share some frosting all of his own doing. I should mention that Kason did such a good job of being excited for Asher. I could tell he was trying so hard to let Asher open his own presents and play with them first even though he was just dying sometimes. When we were getting the cake ready to bring over he ran up to Asher and said, "I just love you so much!"

About Asher:
-Height: 33 1/2 in (10%)
-Weight: 31 lbs (80%) so just slightly disproportionate! :)
-He has alot of personality, more than either of us know what to do with sometimes.
-He is very funny and sweet, but oh there is a mischievous/busy/determined and STUBBORN streak.
-He knows alot of the letters and sounds they make, it amazes me, but his favorite is definitely O
-He says, "I nu nu know" for I don't know.
-He loves the song Let's Go Fly a Kite from Mary Poppins and he always begs to watch "Fwy Kite" on the computer.
-His favorite movies are Toy Story (Buzz) and Cars, but he is really drawn to just TV in general. :/
-Basketball is called "shoop" for shoot.
-He likes to growl...alot. His favorite animals are a: bear, kiger (tiger), and doggie.
-He likes to give pows.
-He is rarely found without a ball. He loves soccer and basketball and can really kick and shoot pretty well. At the park sometimes he would rather kick a ball around or shoot hoops. Or more likely try to get right in the middle of and join some 13 year olds playing those games.
-He likes dinosaurs and can say it clearly now.
-He is really good about saying sorry - when he doesn't need to. He's not always so good about saying it when he does need to. :)
-He almost always says "Thank you Mommy" or "Thank you Daddy" on his own and will say it over and over until we say you're welcome.
-He also says you're welcome. It sounds like "ha kwe kwe"
-He asks why alot, but alot of the time will answer his own question with a "because?" I guess I answer too many of his questions that way!

And a mother's day pic. Love my boys!

Time flies! I remember him as a little baby! He sounds like a very sweet boy-he looks a little bit like Levi in some of the pictures. You have two adorable boys
