New Fence and Other Adventures...

When Ryan took on the project of finishing the basement a new window went in for the guest bedroom. So the fence and gate had to go to make room for the window. Due to the open yard which opens up to the walk way, we had a few visitors in our yard. So Ryan built us a new fence and gate to keep our yard "our yard" again!!!
Since Asher has come along, Botts has felt the even greater need to claim everything as her own. Her she is in Asher's lounge chair. You can hardly dump her from it. She puts those claws in and holds on for dear life!

Sleepy Asher cuddled up in the blanket Nicole & Mark gave to him! So soft and comfy.

Sam has quite the imagination... This coathanger has been a helmet and wings! Busted. I'm going to keep this for when you are older son!

Time at the Park!

We have been trying to spend more time at the park! Which is always a good time. We have a few parks that we love to go visit.










Here Sam is testing out the slide. Although he loves being thrown in the air, he is a little reluctanat to go down the slide alone. So this was a big success when he discovered it was a lot of fun!






We also like to go to a park near Papou and Mammy's house. There is a garden, where we found a dead snake being eaten by bugs! yummy! We saw 2 ducks, birds, dogs, rabbits and hear a fox howling as sinrens passed by. It was a lot of fun. We went back 2 days later and saw 4 deer sitting in someones yard! We love it here!






Sam also learned to go on the big swing by himeself. Wahooo! Here he is making the sound Spider Man makes when he shoots out his web!

Going to the park is a lot of fun! Asher was with us also, but was very sleepy. I will take more later so that he doesn't think that he was adopted! :)

Asher's Quiet Time

While the little monkey is asleep...shhhhh! Oh but he is so stinking sweet when he sleeps!
Asher is now 5 1/2 weeks old. He is getting so BIG!! He looks a lot like Sam to me. What do you think?






That is when we have special time with Sam. So we made pizza for lunch! I think that Sam ate more cheese than he put on the pizza! :)

I am trying to get Sam's attention to take this photo. He is trying to be a good boy and say "cheese," but is really wanting to inspect the bug he sees on the window.

Trying to teach Sam how to tell what color eyes he has requires me taking this lovely photo. Haha, I thought that it was funny. So here you go!

We have a lot of fun at home each day!!

Sam IS Potty Training @least if M&M's are involved!

May 13th...

Potty training has begun! We bought the Big Boy briefs that promised to allow Sam to "notice" when he voided. What they failed to mention is that Mom would also "notice" when he voided. Marked by a pair of soaked jeans in Lowe's and a soaked dinning room chair while assisting with making dinner! They let more through than they soak! Oh man! :)

M&M's are the reward for sitting on the potty. Although, Sam does have a cushy Diego potty seat that fits on the Lu.

Can you tell by the first photo how excited he is to be starting this little endevore!

So each night we end with a nice cleansing bath! Diego tattoo and all! Don't forget Percy also! He is a must each bath session...mind you, Sam fills him with water and proceeds to squirt all over. Boyz!

May 15th - A New Addition

Soooo, we have once again rejoined the VW family! Ryan has taken over ownership of the Kehayas Touareg! It was a kick in the pants...Ryan drove it around town...Lori drove it around town...back at the ranch the darn thing quit working. No kidding! So back to square one and it will be off to the shop on Monday. Shoot. Always a bummer when the VERY fist day you have a new vehicle it breaks. :) But is it pretty and Ryan does look good drivisng it. Then again, he makes everything look good!

Our New Addition...Asher Benjamin - April 6th 2010

On April 6th, we welcomed Sam's new brother Asher into the Goeglein family! Sam was the first one to meet Asher after he was born. After he met him, he went out to the waiting room and brought the rest of the family into meet his brother. He was so proud and excited!

Since that day, Sam and Asher are on their way to becoming steadfast friends. Both of the boys have red hair. Asher's hair is slightly more auburn, but is becoming more like Sam's in brightness.

Every morning Sam comes into Mom and Dad's room to say "Hi Brover!" He will then lay there and hold Asher's hand. He is very gentle with Asher and is very good about softly touching his head and giving kisses.
