February Fun...
I can't believe the month is OVER...
Time flies... we have been so busy!
Tom's birthday was at the beginning on the month and we went to the "diver restaurant" (as Ash calls it... really the Mayan) since it's Ash's favorite. Tiff and Shawn, the boys, and Rachie and Grandma came along. So glad they were able to come! Ash LOVES hanging out with the boys and it he gets all crazy and hyper when they are around.
Cute Jax!
Then there was Valentine's day...
Grandma Mary sent Ash a cute Valentine's card in the mail... he was so excited to get actual mail that was for him!
His class at daycare was learning about Mexico and they were having a pinata at their Valentine party. He had been talking about the "fighting the piano" (= pinata) all week. I couldn't let him miss it (since he doesn't go to daycare on Fridays), so i took him for an hour to daycare on Friday. He had a ball hitting the pinata (he was about the only kid who could) and when it finally broke all the kids ran in, grabbed one piece of candy, then ran away to open and eat the candy. They didn't get the whole grab as much as you can concept. Awesome to see such innocence.
They also made cupcakes:
And Ash got a whole bag of valentines and candy (probably his favorite part!):
And last but not least... Ash has been loving his last backpack he got for Christmas. He wears it out and about every now and then. I have to convince him to take it off for the car ride, but then he'll put it back on as soon as we get out. Pretty cute...

Asher conversations...
Ash has been saying "moochie moochie" for a long time. I'm not sure where it came from, or what it means, but he thinks its hilarious. We pretend to whisper in each others ears and he always says "moochie moochie" and then laughs. Or we'll say it long and loud... "moooochie moooochie."
The other day he was jumping off the couch and onto his dad. He kept yelling at me to watch. Then he said, "Are you ready? Yeah. You're ready." All matter of fact.
And there are also these long stories... they always involve a "boom" or "poop". Like this:
There was this shark.
And the shark was very big.
And the shark went "boom."
And he had these sharp teeth (pinching fingers together in the air)
And he tried to bite me with the teeth.
And I went boom. (gesturing like he punched it).
And I fell down (as he falls on the floor).
Or I'll ask him what he wants to eat and he'll think about it for a minute and say:
"poop lasagne"
"hamburger poop"
The conversations are never boring.

Hostest with the Mostest...
My friends came to visit last weekend and I had a blast. Asher turned out to be the "hostess with the mostest" by making sure everyone had what they needed.
Dontae came right in and started playing with the trains. Ash walked out to find him there and said "Dontae, Hi! How are you?" All nonchalant. Like an adult.
He and Dontae also had fun jumping on the bed:
All the cute kids had fun playing with playdough (that Tom awesomely brought home for them). They also loved riding the plasmacar around.
I made chocolate dipped strawberries, but I forgot them in the freezer and they totally froze. When they defrosted they were completely smushy. Yuck. Oh well.
It was so good to see everyone! Can't wait until next time.

Outside toys on the inside...
Tom and I have decided this is a testament to how great our new house is. You know you have moved up in the world when you go from riding your bike outside... to riding it on the inside.
I wasn't sure about the hardwood floors... especially through the entire upstairs... but they are AWESOME for the bike/scooter (plasmaCar... as I just looked up) thing Ash got from Grandma Noralyn for Christmas. We ride it all over. (Yes... I said we).
Ash lets me have "whole package turns." I'm not sure where he got this... but it means I can ride all the way from one side of the house to the other. He'll jump off and say "Mom, it's your whole package turn."
We pull back all the rugs and ride it all around. It's actually pretty fun. When all the kids were here they also had a ball.
