Comings and goings

This week has been full of lots of comings and goings. We finished up swim lessons this week, had a T ball game and practice, a dance class, a matinee movie, photo session with Charlie and Mary Ellen, took the swamp cooler off the roof and put in an attic fan.
In addition to these fun and interesting things, "El Destructo" kept Mom busy. Asher can reach the top of the counters, so he pulls things off regularly. OJ, milk, random dishes, knives, scissors etc. Two incidents of particular note: Asher had a touch of the stomach flu, and had to be cleaned from throwing up all over himself on two different occasions. The second was even more interesting, when he comes downstairs to Mom with "that look" (I assume most parents know what I am talking about). Sara asks, "Did you make a mess?" and he shakes his head "yes" (he won't use words, but nods his head, points, and grunts ... but don't be fooled, he knows exactly what you are talking about). Anyway, Sara takes him upstairs and finds that Asher has decided to take a bath on the kitchen floor in cooking oil. Of course, then he proceeds to walk about the house and grabs who knows what all else. She does add that, on the upside, our floor is really shiny now and Asher's skin is very moisturized! Oh well, you either laugh at them or kill them. We have made comment that JJ and Hannah really didn't get into things or do all the little tricks parents talk about -- Asher, on the other hand, is making up for it in spades.

You can't stay mad at him for long - he is so gosh darn cute! Here are photos from swim lessons:

Since we didn't get to go to the cemetary on Memorial Day this year we went up to Brigham after we returned from China. Here are some pics from that day:

Asher really liked the whirly gigs!

Boys! Only boys would think to make such messes! I swear some days I feel like cinderella, but at least she got to go to a ball!
