Ascher had a slight fever off and on over the last couple days, and he was tired and crabby and not his normal happy self and I was getting tired and really needing to write this post just to remind myself of the happy stuff that so routinely happens around here. But, like I said, Ascher wasn’t feeling good and was tired and crabby and needing extra attention, so the post didn’t happen, go figure. So, here’s the post I was wanting to write yesterday.
Three smiles from last week -
- Ascher has started leaning to give or get kisses from me. If I’m already kissing his cheek I can feeling him leaning up against me more and more and if I make kissy faces at him and ask for a kiss he’ll sometimes come the whole way. Just now when I was reading a story to him I had my face near his as I read and he turned to me and pressed his face to mine. Too, too sweet. :)
- The three of us took a fun outing on Saturday and went to the bookstore, out to lunch and then to wander around the mall. Came home with some books and some sweets, as I feel you must when . Ascher was a bit overwhelmed because we don’t usually do so much in one day, but he did really well and eventually fell asleep on Ben in the backpack carrier.
- Visiting with family is always a highlight of my week.
Looking forward to -
We’re leaving in a few minutes for an ultrasound to hopefully find out whether our new little one is a boy or a girl. Yay!
What are you looking forward to about this week?

Yay! How fun!
