Sunday means Soccer!

Asher has started soccer on Sundays.  It has been so fun to watch him run around on the field.  We laugh the entire time. His favorite part of soccer is giving his coach a high-five and kicking the ball in the net and then playing in the net until he gets stuck and Mommy or Daddy have to rescue him. 


Obviously we haven't mastered, "no hands" in soccer yet, but at least we are not eating the goal post!

Good job, Asher!

Let's hear it for our two word wonder child!

Asher hit a major milestone in his speech development yesterday and we are ecstatic. Our wonder boy can now say two words together. Yes, you heard it right--TWO WORDS! This is HUGE for us because he is a little late in the game with speaking and so we know that this is an important step in his language acquisition. His favorite two words are "Help Mama" or "Mama Help" He also greeted many family members on the phone yesterday by saying hi followed by their name. 

  It all started yesterday, when he pushed his daddy out of the room in the morning and asked for me instead. I was skeptical that I had heard his two word utterance correctly, "Help Mama".  However, after nap I asked him if he wanted more cheese and he looked at me with a furrow brow and thought real hard and said, "More cheese".  Well that was it for me, I was one proud Mama!
My silly guy!
