Lately...

Whew, glad I finally finished that photo challenge. Not sure I'll do that again!! ha!

Anyhow, things have been great recently! Lots of activities keeping us busy. The long Memorial Day weekend was filled with swimming, shopping, food, and family!

Friday Mike & I got out of work a few hours early!! Sweet! We went to Mike's dads house to go swimming and then to dinner with our neighbors. The pool water was pretty chilly. Mike got in and swam for a bit but Asher & Mommy weren't having much of it so we watched and put our feet in a bit.

Saturday we it was a million degrees outside so we decided to go to the Allen Outlet Mall with Mike's mom. Whew...it was HOT! We lathered Ash in sunscreen and made the best of it. Of course Mike's mom bought A new clothes since he is growing non-stop!!! Score! Saturday night we went to my mom's house for a cookout for Mike's birthday. It was super delish and fun. Sunday we went back to Mike's dads house to swim again. This time the water was actually warm and Asher loved it.

Last Monday was Mike's birthday. We had a fun time celebrating and going out to his favorite local restaurant. It's a pretty nice restaurant but since we went at 5:30 on a Wednesday we figured we could take our sweet bebe! Asher did great and actually slept the whole time! :)

Loving the water!!


Lounging on the raft!



Ahhhh.

Playing with daddy.


We had crazy t-storms and tornadoes in our area last Tuesday. It was pretty frightening. Mike came home from his 'guys night out' early because the tornado sirens were going nuts and it was UGLY outside! He came home and we decided to get Asher out from his crib and into the bathtub. We all huddled in there for about an hour. Asher went in his bassinet (that he barely fits in!!) and fell right back asleep. We kept the lights off and had the mattress ready too! It was pretty frightening! So glad we were all okay and that we didn't have any damage! It's unbelievable what damage tornadoes can do. People lose their lives just like that...so incredibly sad!!! I'm still praying for the families that were effected by the recent Oklahoma & Kansas tornadoes. :(

s.c.a.r.e.d! (using a lighter for light)


Mike on the phone with his dad. He called to ensure we were safe! (Apparently, Mike isn't as scared as MEE! WTH?!?)


Asher sleeping in his bassinet in the bathtub. zzzzz. Yep, I was the only scared one. Humph!
