Jungle boy

12 on the 12th - July 2009

1. We went to a bluegrass concert at the Peter Strauss Ranch. Asher and I try to escape the heat under an umbrella.

2. Asher plays with a tickley piece of wild grass.

3. Daddy and Asher stroll the trail, waiting for the music to start.

4. Mom was away for the weekend, so I fed her dogs while she was gone. This is Kami.

5. It was HOT at the concert, and Asher had fun with the water bottle.

6. Brady went to the Rainbow Bridge Monday, July 6. We're not ready to let go of his things yet, including his bed, which smells like him. I've had nightly sobs curled up there for a week.

7. Asher has a thing for cables, and likes to hang them around his neck. Gotta watch him close! He can even play a game of peek-a-boo while tied up.

8. After his bath, Asher started feeding Daddy's belt through the holes on the side of his slide. He's interested in the fact that when he pokes it through on the inside, it appears on the outside.

9. Our shaved ice didn't last long in the summer heat.

10. I made some strawberry freezer jam with a couple boxes of berries I picked up in Santa Barbara last weekend.

11. We have tablets that color the bathwater, and it's Asher's favorite part of the ritual.

12. One of Mom's tomato plants from last summer came up again on it's own this year, and it's bearing a bit of fruit. Small bits, as you can see.

Flinstone Feet

I was scanning checks to deposit this afternoon and Asher was very interested in the scanner. So I stood him on it and scanned his fat little feet. It was too cute not to share!
