The Latest...

Here are my most recent favorite pictures of the little nursling. This one is of Asher and Jon coming home from church. I couldn't resist this little pageboy hat-- it was only a dollar-- yeah Park City outlet stores!!! . Jon wears his pageboy hat (it was his Grandpa's) to church quite often so it was fun to see both of them together! This is Asher with his Aunt Brittney in Idaho Falls. We went up there last weekend to see her play, "The Pied Piper". If you can't tell by the whiskers and nose, she was a rat. It was such a cute cute play, I think it was the BEST Jr. High production I've ever seen-- and I include the ones I was in. My favorite part was when the rats, all hypnotized by the Piper, marched down the aisles and sang "We're going to the River, going in the water, cool calm water... going to the River... Where we'll drown" in this really airy, beautiful tune. I was laughing so hard.. it was kind of embarrassing because no one else laughed as hard as I did.
On St. Patrick's Day the Farrells always have an Irish celebration dinner, complete with corn beef and soda bread (my favorite). This year Heidi got River and Asher matching IRELAND hoodies and boy did they look cute. We had quite the trouble trying to get a picture of them together-- lets just say River is MUCH more interested in Asher than he is in her, and bigger! But next year he should be able to hold his own against her :)
Okay this is cute! We've discovered Asher's favorite book is Dr. Seuss's "The Shape of Me and Other Stuff." I bought it at the D.I. for 50 cents and thought it was kind of a boring book because the pictures were just silhouettes. One night I heard Jon reading it to Asher and then I heard "Heather get in here... now" and when I walked in Jon and Asher were lying on the floor reading the book and Asher had a HUGE grin on his face and was flapping his arms up and down (which means he is happy). He LOVES the silhouette pictures-- I guess they are easier for him to process. It has become Jon and Asher's nightly ritual to read the story lying on the carpet. Also, just so you know Jon did Asher's hair crazy after bath time in this picture-- that isn't part of the ritual:)

I've decided that there are way more pictures of Jon and Asher than there are of me and Asher-- because I am kind of the camera nut in the family. So I made Jon take a picture of me and Asher with his hat on and his cable knit sweater. Man that kid is cute!
