asher man got his first tooth! hurray! what a big boy he is becoming. he is so cool, you just have to meet him to get it!

anti-magic

i am soo against magic. mention magic in front of the girls and they will give you an ear full. alexa has always been very good about letting me know if something comes on tv that is about magic...then there's jossy. she would say, 'alexa, don't tell mom.' so after many lectures on magic and the only thing we believe is in the supernatural (jesus stuff) jossy finally got it. we were in the disney store at the mall last week and on the speaker was a woman talking about why she loved disney....so she said something about magic. when she did jossy froze and said, 'mom she said magic. we have to leave." ha ha ha. i tried to explain that it was okay for us to stay because there was no magic happening. too funny.

and now for pictures:
asher has been teething and had his flu shot. he has been a little fussy the past week. but still awesome!

jossy's party!

jossy is 3! she really understands the excitement of a birthday now! here is the inviataion to her party we did have to postpone it a day due to terrible weather. we had a smaller crowd, but tons of fun!

the fair

the fair finally came back to town! i am not big on the fair and my attention span (for the fair) is just as long as the girls'...so it all works out!
merry go round. the snake~ i HATE snakes. if i see them i dream about them...and they are never good dreams! alexa touched it but was not at all into it. jossy on the other hand...well look for yourself

the petting zoo...the worst part of the fair! luckily, they do not allow strollers so i waited outside with the sanitizer

drinking honey sticks

tink is very into accessories!

deciding where to go

all in all it was a great day at the fair!

hold on...

this is going to be a week of lots of posts...i promise! i have so many stories, pictures and videos!
so stay tuned...

7 months!

asher is 7 months today! here are a few pics showing off how fabulous he is!

the last is asher with his famous 2 finger suck (that grandma is not happy about and is trying to break!) he continues to be awesome! he is so much more interactive the girls these days. he is also eating cut up fruits and veggies. he thinks he is so big!

we love you asher man!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSSY!

what a fabulous little jossy we have! she is such a joy and always keeps us laughing. we call her our 'spirited' child!

What we love about joss:

*how she hugs, kisses and tickles everyone every night
*how she spells her name, but won't say it

*how she apologizes even if she didn't so anything wrong

*how she prays that she will obey mom and dad and jesus every time we pray

*whenever you come home she says "i very missed you'

*she always makes sure asher has blue skee

i could sit here all day and add to the list! joss we love you and are so glad you are 3!!

i am so very behind on blogging! here are some recent pics of the children. this is my attempt at getting all of them in one shot!

ballet started up last week! jossy is now old enough to participate. she was so excited. the girls are in the same class (due to scheduling). here they are when i dropped them the first day.

asher is now 6 months old!

what an awesome kid. i often wonder what we ever did without him!

we went to the doctor last week and he came in at 18lbs and 26.75 inches. (my kids just seem to get fatter and fatter!) he continues to sleep like champ and loves eating these days. he can tell when we are eating and does not like being excluded. he is not so interested in nursing...he wants FOOD! it is so fun to start to see a little personality. i think he is going to be like his dad.
