happy birthday asher!

asher is two today! it is so fun watching him discover new things and figure stuff out. our favorite things about asher are:
- he is very agreeable, even when he doesn't know what he is agreeing to: "Ah-Kay!"
- he wants ice cream before breakfast
-"bye! see you soon!"
- clings to you like a baby monkey if he hears a loud noise
- runs around talking gibberish when he's really happy
- pats his tummy and says, "my baby! my baby!"
- folds his arms when we ask if we should say a prayer
- LOVES his soft blanket "my blank!" and rubs it between his fingers when he's holding it
- yells "Mack! Mackie! Mack!" every time he sees a semi... this makes for a lot of yelling when we are on the freeway
- loves hot cocoa any time of the day, no matter how hot it is outside
- when you ask him any "guess what..." question his eyes get wide and he makes this adorable surprised sound
- automatically adds an -ie to the end of peoples names. this makes for some interesting nick names, "liam! leemie!, jack! jackie!"
















love you baby!

it's a girl!

every time we have gone in for our 20 week ultrasound we have found out the gender... and some bad news. we decided to mix things up this time by finding out the gender before our nerve-racking level 2 ultrasound. we are sooo excited to have another little girl! (especially will) crazy thing is she is due about a week after addi's birthday. hopefully she won't mind sharing her birthday month with her big sister!
here is baby #3 - we think she's pretty cute.
