crash and crawl

I was in the kitchen this morning and heard a loud CRASH from the living room. I immediately knew what it was. Asher pulled over a candle stand with a glass hurricane on it, and well, the hurricane didn't survive. This will be the first of many I'm sure. Oh well. No one was hurt so that's good. Proof of Asher's destruction...


The second excitement of the day was he started crawling A LOT today. Apparently he just wanted to wait until Uncle Matt came home from Downrange and Dada came home from Romania to crawl. We were at Uncle Matt's and Aunt Abi's today and Uncle Matt chased him all around the first floor crawling. Asher's favorite thing to do is to take a toy, like a ball, and throw it up in the air and in front of him and then crawl to it and he'll do that across an entire room. It's pretty funny to watch. Check out Asher and his new skillz...

christ is risen

Here are some pictures from our Easter. Asher and I had a great day! Of course it would have been better having Ryan around, but we spent the day with great friends! We went to church with our friends the Meads, Ally and Lily, Katie and Kristen. After church we went to the O'Club at M'hall for an Easter Brunch which was yummy and Asher got to see the Easter Bunny. He didn't really think much of him. He was more interested in the food! We came home and Asher took a good nap while I made a Sweet Potato Casserole, then went over to the Meads for a great Easter Dinner. It was super yummy and we had a great time. Here are some pictures of Asher playing with his friends Ella, Lily and Taylor (he's a pimp).

too long

Please forgive me for just now trying to catch back up with blogging. Ryan was gone to Romania for 3 weeks and he took the computer with him. He needed it to finish up his 3rd Masters class (which he got an A in!! I'm pretty proud of him!) Asher and I were able to check our email b/c we have such great friends who let us borrow their computers, but we didn't do much else on the internet besides that. I know no one really "reads" our blog for the entries, it's more the pictures. So here are some pictures of the little man doing what he does best...
Fully enjoying breakfast--eating and wearing it!

We have had some really nice, sunny days recently for which I am very grateful. Asher loves being outside, and I am much happier if I can get outside in the sunshine and run outside! One sunny morning I took him outside to get some pictures of him in good light...
...but he was way more interested in eating the rocks than looking at the camera!

Yummmmmm

Throwing them was a lot of fun, too.

At our friend Ric's Fini Flight. Hearing protection is very important (Pops and Uncle Dave would be so proud!)

This is pretty cool, Guys!

Another great thing about nice weather--the park

Asher loves the swings

Ready to take off--he actually is crawling some these days

Big cheeeezzz for the camera

Hi!
