Father's Day

It was Georges first fathers day today. We all gathered at Grandmas house in celebration. Simon united again with his cousin Nixon for playtime. He was so exhausted from having skipped his afternoon nap that I was impressed he lasted as long as he did. David cooked some amazing BBQ and we all pigged out including the little ones. Byron and Bejana treated everyone to yummy strawberry shakes. And nixon had fun getting it all over himself. They played on the grass, on the trampoline, and Simon played with Davids newly placed rocks tossing them as far as he could throw. After a fun game of Name the famous person we had to quickly take Simon home because he was so tired. In the car we glanced back at him and his eyes were open, then five minutes later I looked back again because he was so quiet and I watched as his head flopped down with eyes closed fast asleep. Poor thing. He played so hard.

Tummy Time

Simon's whole world has expanded since he started walking. But he has become fond of laying on his belly again. He picks a place on the floor and sprawls out playing with his choice of toy in front of him. Sometimes he just lays down and kicks his feet up behind him. How do they learn so many things so fast? Today at work he tried to put paper in the printer and recently Grandma saw him trying to put my keys in the door lock. Unbelievable!! His favorite toys are my toys. I got him a toy rake and bucket. He's not interested. He refuses to give my rake up once he gets possession of it. At the office all pens, staplers, keyboards, mouses, paper, and boxes are his toys. He has had to learn NO really fast.

The Aspervil Family

Hi to all!! I hope to share updates and stories of our life with our family. Right now I am about to start working full time as the Apartment Manager for Winter Haven. Student Housing for UVU in Orem, Ut. We live in a wonderful home provided by the apartments and have been here for a little over a year now. Georges is still pursing his mechanical engineering degree at UVU and his currently taking his College Algebra class for the summer semester. He never wants to stop taking a class fearing that he will never start again. He will be a Sophmore this Fall and so will still have a few years to go which means we will be here for awhile. Last Friday was his last day at his job with Blendtec as an engineer assistant. He is going to do school full-time and stay home with Simon in the afternoons while I work across the street at the office. Thank you to all of my family that helped tend Simon this year. You know who you are and how much I appreciated your weekly help with Simon. Now Simon. . .He is 10 Months old, growing fast, and cuter than ever!!! He has been walking for a about a month now, climbs up and down our stairs freely, and loves to play outside in the dirt while I pull weeds. He loves anything with wheels on it especially daddy's motorcycle. And has been so excited to have Daddy home as a babysitter everyday now. I would say Simon's first word was daddy. Well, that is just a quick summary of out life right now in a nutshell. Stay Posted . . .
