One month for Asher!

Can't believe - well, actually I can - that I'm this late posting a one month blog for my newest little treasure.

At one month Asher-bear is doing what most one month olds do: eating, sleeping, and pooping.  But - he does it all looking soooooo cute!

At one month, he has already been to the zoo, the aquarium, doctor (of course!), Chic-fil-a, church, mommy's work (CookChildren's Medical Center), Christmas tree shopping, to Griffin's school, and had tons of visitors.

Asher is so pleasant.  He gets the hiccups when he wants to eat and then right after he eats.  He cries pretty much when he's hungry.  At his first baths he cried and then really, really let me have when I put on lotion, but he doesn't cry with the bath part any more.  He really seems to enjoy it!

His umbilical cord came off before he was two weeks old and the other little thing that baby boys get if they have a certain surgery didn't fall off until he was almost 3 weeks old!  Daddy was getting worried!

He did have a little bit of clogged tear duct on his left eye, but with some warm compresses and mommy massaging, it cleared right up!

Asher doesn't seem to mind tummy time too much and is really starting to lift his head up.

He was 11 pounds 13 ounces and a lot of inches long.  Chris actually took him to his appointment and can't remember how long he was.  What he does remember is that the doctor said his length was in the 99th percentile!

Griffin is really sweet to Asher.  He's not super interested in him yet, but he has moments when he is, he wants to hold him, talk to him, etc.

PICTURE OVERLOAD.....
