Asher is almost 8 months old now! He is such a good boy and a very good sleeper. He is working on his 6th tooth, (he just got his 5th tooth this week). He is still not crawling, but that is okay with mommy! He is rocking on all fours like a crazy man though! He absolutely hates his bath(both the girls loved their baths), this is a rare moment in the bath where he is not crying.

Oh how I love thee biter biscuits! Thank you for letting my family have a peaceful Thanksgiving meal today. Thank you for providing teething relief for my boy (4 teeth and counting!). Thank you for letting him enjoy delicious graham flavor. I could do without your clean-up but I will sacrifice 30 wipes for 30 minutes of a somewhat, (don’t forget we still have 2 other kiddos!) peaceful meal.

Asher turned seven months yesterday. He is such a good baby! He just got his 3rd tooth so maybe my laundry will go down for awhile from all the bibs he soaks with drool. He is about to crawl too. The little guy gets up on all fours and rocks-he just can’t figure out how to propel forward yet without doing a face plant. I would prefer he hold off until after the Christmas tree goes down but he has other ideas. It looks like we won’t be decorating the bottom half of our tree this year. Here he is showing off of his new skillz.

And here he is with one of his best buds-Malachi. I think this friendship may be one-sided right now but I’m very confident they will grow to one day be bros. 😉

I’m pretty sure my son is the only baby who gets these when he wakes up…

Who wants it next? This costume has plenty of “first Halloween’s” left in it. 😉
Who could resist the Mrs. Potato Head pumpkins? I saw them at Target and knew the girls would love them. So, we ‘dressed up’ our pumpkins last week and put them on the front porch. Rilyn proudly claimed that she was the princess pumpkin and Ella proudly claimed she was the “helicopter.” (I can’t blame her because I don’t think we’ve gotten to the part in the Bible yet where we teach her angels have halos.) 😉 As for Asher, he doesn’t care that he doesn’t have a Mr. Potato Head pumpkin so he won’t get one until next year. He is just our little pumpkin for now. 🙂

Rilyn is 2 and Asher is 5 months old in these pictures
It’s true, our little man is already 5 months old. Soon he will be half a year old, then we’ll blink and it will be time for him to step on Kyle Field as the quarterback for the Aggies. 😉

Mommy just had to take the embarrassing nudie shot because babies bottoms are just too cute!

I know there will be a lot of upcoming ‘firsts’ for Asher in these next months, so let’s get the ball rolling…
Tonight was his first try at eating rice cereal. What can I say? It’s not like I can blame him for not loving the paste-flavored mush. 😉
