Anvari Chronicles // Texas Summer 2013

We had a blast in Texas and Asher was a huge hit!  Raf and I barely held him the whole time we were there, in fact we began to forget that we were parents all together.  We went on not 1, not 2 but THREE dates while we were there and it felt so nice to reconnect with the love of my life.  We ate a ton of delicious food and spent lots of time with Raf’s extended family which was lovely.

IMG_6184Sorry that this picture is a little blurry, but I had to include it because it highlights the shirt that Rafaan’s mom made for Rafaan when he was a baby and they were living in Pakistan and that has now been gifted to Asher.

Texas Bound

We are heading off to Texas today to visit Raf’s family, many of whom will be meeting Asher for the first time.  Asher already has them all wrapped around his tiny fingers, but how could he not?  I’m so excited about this trip and I’m looking forward to watching Asher charm everyone with his sweet personality and easy smile.  Posting may be light while we’re away, but I’ll definitely be documenting our time in the Lone Star state and posting about it here when I can.

This will be the maiden voyage of our new stroller so look out for a full review in the near future.

We’ll be gone for 11 days!  That’s 11 days of Raf around during the day, lot’s of delicious food, family time and plenty of hands to help hold and entertain Asher.  I am pretty jazzed about it.  Who knows, maybe the Hubs and I will actually go on a date, which is something we haven’t done since the tiny one arrived.  I even plan to take Asher to the pool for the first time and get lots of adorable shots of him in his brand new cloth swim diaper!
