Asher’s Day

At breakfast Asher noticed a big icicle hanging down from the kitchen window. So we immediately went and pulled it off and put it in the freezer.

After a lunch of sandwiches and chocolate shakes, we left for a movie.

It was freezing and Asher refused to wear his coat…brrr!

After the movie we saw Jamie at work. (She works for a company that makes video games, she’s an artist) We all went for a quick dinner

Then we went to Toys R Us and Target so Asher could pick his presents. He was so modest, I was so proud of him for not being greedy. At TRU all he wanted was one little $7 lego set. Being the consumer I am, I convinced him to pick two more little lego sets. Then at Target he found two Star Wars sets he didn’t have yet and was completely stoked. At 9pm on a school night we left Cary for an hour drive home. Asher was so excited about his Star Wars legos BJay let him open and assemble them last night. It was a late night. I’m going to bring star wars cupcakes to his class at lunch today. More photos will follow.

 

Happy 6th Birthday Asher!!!

I had a really mushy post going about Asher and how he’s changed my life, but I guess the universe rejected it because my web browser suddenly shut down near the end of it. Oh well. I am so amazed that I have a 6 year old boy and I love and adore him tremendously. We spent his day going to a movie, shopping for his presents, and eating food he picked. (He picked Chinese, but then decided he didn’t reallyy like Chinese food.) We got to chill with Aunt Jamie while we were there and took a tour of her work. Lots of guys in dark rooms staring at computer screens. Some of them, very stereotypical programmers. It was fun. I’ll post pictures of our adventures and Asher’s haul tomorrow. We got back late (on a school night) and I just finished baking cupcakes for Asher’s class. (He didn’t have school today.) I love you Asher!

 

Gabe’s Bike

 

My Gabers

Gabe turned 2 today. Well, technically yesterday, but only by 48 minutes. I just love him like crazy. He has so much personality already at two. We got him a Radio Flyer trike and some balls and a puzzle. All he needed was the bike. He couldn’t even wait for the seat to be fastened on. Its one of those cool ones with a long handle that I can push and steer with. I’ll post pictures later. We threw him a little party with his nursery buddies. It was a good day.
