nothing much.....

Nothing much has been going on around here. Dougie finished his Upward season and is now onto baseball. Emma decided she doesn't want to play softball this year but she will be trying out for JV cheerleading at the end of the month. I can't believe she'll be a middle schooler! Caleb is growing and talking soooooo much. Last Friday, I used the webcam on Steven's laptop to record the funniest video of him singing but I can't get it to upload! It's so frustrating....I guess I'll just have to try and get him to sing and use my camera instead.

Two funny things Caleb said today:

He's fallen in love with the disney show, Rolie, Polie Olie. I don't think it even comes on anymore, a friend gave us an old vcr tape. But he calls it "Polie Polie Polie." After listening to "open the eyes of my heart" on the radio today, Caleb walked around singing, "Polie, Polie, Polie...I want to see you." (You know the song actually says, "holy, holy, holy...I want to see you!)

One the way to pick up the kids from school, Caleb asked me, "Mommy, is Asher done yet?"
(If you don't know Asher is the name we've chosen for the baby!)

btw, Emma suggested I ask y'all to give your suggestions for a middle name, we're kind of at a loss. Our last name begins with A, so I'd like to stay away from having a AAA.

Love ya'll!

Asher James...AJ for short!
Asher Jordan...another good one.

Jordan means descending from heaven...

I like Jordan too. YOU know Stacy garrett's little boy's name is AJ? How about Jake? Of course I am a little attached to that one. What about after a grandparent or parent?

There is Asher Lamar Adams!

Cheryl said...

Nan....I don't think so!

Don't know exactly why but as soon as I read your question the name McClain came to mind. Asher McClain Adams. Sort of fun but a little formal. Hope you are feeling well.
Blessings,
Linda

I had really wanted to name Brody "Asher" but it got vetoed. I think it's such a wonderful name and it held so much meaning for me. *sigh* Oh well! I'm thrilled your son is Asher. I LOVE IT! I was leaning toward Asher James which was already suggested. It's meant to be! ;)

Oh, and now that Brody IS Brody, Asher doesn't fit. He's just 100% Brody. :)

As soon as I submitted that last comment, I felt funny. That last part sounded weird. It's just that after you name your baby, their name just fits and you can't imagine them having been a different name, you know? Asher is still a top name for me. Do you know what I'm trying to say? I know you do! I'll stop talking now! :)
