little miss



I just uploaded a bunch of pictures to my computer last night and I couldn't help but smile at a couple of these pics of little miss Ive.
a few weeks ago Asher was telling my mom about his little sister "Ive"
my mom: "that's cute, so Asher calls her Ive?"
Asher (from the backseat of the car): "Ive (pause) or Ivy (longer pause) or maybe, chunkaroo"

He also calls her "little-chunk", "ivy-licious", "chubbers" or "I-V-Y".  I think Dad had something to do with those names.  AND, now that she's mobile, more of her personality is coming out as well, and unlike her brother, she's pretty fearless.  I have a feeling that in a few years Asher may have to avoid using nick-names that make reference to her baby chub.

  4. Oh my goodness, she is precious! I love the look on her face!
    Little C's nickname was "Squishy" for a long time. The minute I saw him the line: "hey little fella, i shall call you squishy and you shall be mine and you shall be my squishy" popped into my head and stuck.

  5. That second pic of Ivy is so cute. I also like the first one but that is just because Chase has that same pink pacifier.

  7. I am crying over Asher's "...or maybe, chunkaroo"
    Hilarious! Both of your kids are way too cute!

  8. First of all - not hard to be more fearless than Asher (sorry Asher).

    Second - those nicknames are hysterical and I am laughing because Audrey has rolls all over and Grant never did. Clarke said she looks like Ivy. (sorry Ivy)

    Thirdly, forget India, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan - move back to Boston and then wherever we are going for med school. How are we going to survive a summer without the Clasons? I have barely made it through the winter. We need our beach buddies back and our So You Think You can dance buddies, and our Fuddruckers buddies and our playground buddies . . . you get the idea. We miss you.

  9. I think Asher and Abel are from the same mold. I wish we could get them together.

    Ive is absolutely adorable. You did well.

    Best of luck with moving and all that, Toria. You are brave and adventurous; I hope you get to see John soon (if he's really there... :) ) Scott and I enjoyed your description of John's education/jobs. Maybe you guys are "Alias" in real life.

    I know Saudi Arabia can be really modern...maybe that would be a good place.

  10. love the hat, we have a friend whose son is about to turn six and they still call him "chubs," a baby nickname, I think with a girl that would be a hard nickname to grow up with!
