AsHeR!

Randomness about my boy.

• Last week when I went to put on one pair of his newborn PJ's, they were TOO SMALL! However most of his other NB clothes still fit, and his 0-3 month clothes are still a little big.


• He is beginning to kind of smile, and so far that I have seen, has done two really big REAL smiles!


• He loves to be held against your chest, and would sleep there all day if you let him.


• He usually will sleep really well at night, unless it's the weekend. Then he wants to be up every 2-3 hours all night, and is ready for the day at 7:30/8:00.


• He loves his bouncy chair. (Me too!)


• He looks just like his dad. (He is Jason's mini-me)


• He would much rather be held, then anything else.


• He sleeps fine in his cradle in our room at night, but during the day wants to be out where everyone is, even when he is sleeping.

Just a couple of the pictures Julie took of him last week.

In his Halloween outfit, "Esqueleto" (from Nacho Libre). He not the character obviously, but he is a skeleton, so the name fits.

Two Months Old!

Asher turn two months yesterday! I can not believe how quick he is growing up! He had his wellness check-up yesterday which means shots. He did really well and immediately stopped crying right after they were done. But they took so long that he completely missed one feeding and by the time he was able to eat I had to keep waking him up because he was so tired from crying. He felt very picked on. Poor little guy. He has been kind of fussy all day, but he was very good earlier when my sister-in-law Julie took his pictures. I will post some when she gets them done but it will probably be a little while since they are leaving Saturday for 10 days to go camping, but I will get them on here as soon as I get them. Here are some pictures that I took of him today. His two month stats are Height-22 Weight-9lbs 7oz and Head Circumference-15

My cute little guy!

Jason was "helping" him smile last night while he was sleeping.

And of course the frowning picture.

He foot is getting so much lighter, especially the bottom.

It used to be completely black, now it is more brownish.

The Day From H-E-Double Hockey Sticks!

So today was basically the above. Yesterday Asher basically just got up to eat. He slept all day and we were worried that he wouldn't sleep last night. But he did, thankfully.

And then there was today...

He slept so much yesterday that he has not hardly slept at all today, which in itself would not be bad except for the fact that he has been so tired that he has pretty much screamed all day! He would eat and then fuss and fuss, so I would put him in his bouncy chair with the vibrator on (it usually helps him fall asleep when he is overly tired, I say USUALLY) then he would start to calm down, stare off into space for a while, and finally close his eyes....for about 5 minutes, then wake up screaming, and I mean SCREAMING, and then we would start all over again. He is lucky he is so cute, (and that dad got home when he did) :). Jason took us for a ride, and it was the longest amount of none screaming time all day. Thank heavens for daddy! So he fell asleep on the ride and is currently still sleeping. Now why didn't I think of doing that?

This was taken a few days ago, such a daddy's boy!

New Camera, and At the Park

So Saturday we finally got a new camera! We have given up on finding our old one, especially since the last place I think I had it was at Jason's work, so it's probably long gone. I do wish that they would at least give me back the memory card so I could get the picture off of it, but I don't think that is going to happen. We basically got the same camera, just the next model up, and the only real difference is that the new one is a higher mega-pixal. It's even the same color! So the dogs haven't gone to the park in a long time so since this weekend was so nice we decided to take them. They had lots of fun being able to run free.

At a park not too far from our house.
This is what Asher did most of the time we were there.

Jason and Asher just chillin'

Asher did wake up for like two seconds before going back to sleep.

Jason trying to use Shanyce as a pillow.

So tired after his outing.

Watching TV.

Asher's Blessing

On Sunday we blessed Asher. Jason did such an amazing job with the blessing. I feel so blessed to have him and the priesthood in our home. Asher was such a good boy all through sacrament, and was even wide awake during his blessing and didn't even make a sound! He did very well for his first time at church. Afterwards we had a luncheon at our with different soups and rolls. It was so good! Thanks to everyone who came, and thanks to those who helped bring stuff!

This is our first, and really only "family picture".

My husband is such an "Angel". (notice the blue "halo" around his head on the TV)

Such a happy boy!
Some family visiting afterwards at our house.

More family, and Jaden pretending to take a picture of me taking a picture of him.

Koden and Shanyce, they are best buds. Koden followed Shanyce around for like 5 min. trying to get her to give him "kisses"

Poor Shanyce. After everyone left we went for a drive and Oso decided his butt needed to be where Shanyce was laying.

Traecen and Asher. Traecen is Asher cousin that is 3 months older than him. Here before long they are going to be causing all sorts of trouble.

Such a BIG Boy!

Asher is getting to be so BIG! He turned 7 weeks last Friday! It's crazy, it seem like we have had him FOREVER, and yet I can't believe that he is that old. These pictures were taken last week. He doesn't do this every time he has tummy time but occasionally he will sit up this far and stay like this for like 5 minutes! He is such a big boy already and is getting bigger every day.

So BIG!
He acts like he is already a pro.

It's so easy.

So tired after his 5 minutes.

Oso trying to get Asher to play!

BaTh TiMe and RaNdOm PiCtUrEs!

Last Friday we gave Asher bath and put him in his "Hugh Hefner" bathrobe. Even though it's still a little big, he still looks way cute in it.

He has started occasionally sucking his thumb to soothe himself. I know he shouldn't, but he just looks so darn cute while doing it that I have to take pictures!

I love this outfit! If you look closely the hood has ears! It's also still a little big but that just means that he can wear it longer!

Me and my boy!

And of course this is what we woke up to the other morning. It does know that it is only the first of October, right?
