Shopping with Marmie in Edinburgh
Best Marmie & Grandfather EVER!
Fun during one of our weekly dinners with NeeNee & PaPa
Crayons. Surprisingly doesn't eat them, but does love to break them.
Asher's new philosophy: nearly every moment of life deserves applause.
Screaming at NeeNee
Asher enjoys being led around by a pretty, older lady.
I like the look of exasperation on Jamie's face as she tries to explain something to Ella.
Asher says girls talk way too much!
Asher observes the big kid teeth Ella is getting.
Is my niece beautiful, or what?!
This started off sweetly...
But by the time they started down the slide, Ella was hanging on to Asher by his neck!
He sure loves his big sister cousin.
Sometimes I think Ella sees Asher as a pet.
We can't be on the computer without Asher climbing up on our laps and pressing all the buttons
First sip of coffee milk
Ella drinks her coffee milk, too.
He couldn't look any more angelic
This was the closest to getting wet he was going to get. The pool is obviously an evil, evil place.
Trip #1 to The Children's Museum
Trains are cool!
Asher's impression of a wax statue
Is he smart or what?
Inside the train car
My impression of a wax statue? (I look really weird in this picture...)
Blister prevention patrol
The Stroller Keeper
Going for a drive...
Ella enjoys some of the cherry chocolate birthday cake Steve made for my birthday
Crazy girl!
Rock on!
Such a sweet picture of the kids. Now look at Jamie's face as they trample her body!
Great picture of NeeNee and her girl
Asher smashes a boob. And of course it hurt - he's Superman!
Asher's first slice of pizza!
He loves it!
I think he's just a little fond of her!
Constantly staring at Ella...
Snatching Ella's sunglasses off of her head.
SO COOL
Notice the blue buggy in this picture...
And now it's an orange buggy!
Ella took this picture. Pretty good!
Our first park band concert this year. A little girl Asher's age wandered over to our blanket to join the fun!
Violet wasn't shy about helping herself to Asher's drink!
Good times at Steak 'n' Shake after park band...
Lovely shot of the Hobson ladies at trip #2 to The Children's Museum
Rock dumping
Riding the carousel with my boy
I'm a tiger - GRRR!
A very ghostly shot
Dinner at Chuck E. Cheese after the museum. Look at the excitement in his face as he watches Chuck E. sing!
He was cutting a tooth, can you tell by all the hand-in-mouth pictures?
Chillin' on the bus
Down the slide all by himself!
My favorite picture!
A preview of Ella in August - she starts Kindergarten!
Trip to the Indy zoo
Asher pet a shark!
Recreation of the grandparent picture from last year...
Cooling off inside, waiting for the dolphin show to begin
Feeding the ducks Goldfish crackers.
Asher found the ducks to be very amusing, despite his ultra-serious-safari look here.
OF COURSE he wouldn't cooperate for a picture with his mommy!
Lionness lying next to a cool air vent
Roar
PaPa and the kiddos
Hiding?
Stuffing their faces
This illustrates Asher's knuckle obsession. Some kids have blankies, others have teddies, mine loves knuckles. I often end up riding in the car with my arm stretched like this so he can hold my hand and rub my knuckles.
Asher plays it cool
Such pretty ladies!
Big time stinker face - right here.
We ended up de-pantsing him, hoping he'd like playing in the pool if he weren't restricted with wet, baggy pants. Nope, he still didn't want to leave my lap.
He was laughing, believe it or not.
About to conquer the mysterious tunnel
This hat totally cracks me up. I LOVE it!
Hungry Hungry Hippo
NeeNee and a giant hat
He's pretty much done playing at the park
Peace out
