New Tricks

I swear that Asher is changing every minute these days! He has learned so much lately, he seems to be adding new tricks to his bag every hour. Sunday he started cruising around the furniture and really grasped the concept of drinking from a sippy cup. Tuesday he started signing "more" and he learned to play So Big! I wonder what he'll do today?

And yesterday I noticed that, like his friend Nathan, he has four teeth coming in at once! All on top! He seems to feel no pain, which is wonderful. But the pain is on me because he's started grinding his top and bottom teeth. Urgh, fingernails on a chalkboard don't bother me but this makes me cringe to the point I almost can't take it. I have to squeeze his chubby cheeks together to make him stop before I go insane!

A is for Apple

Last night Daddy and Asher enjoyed a healthy snack while watching the biggest loser. Asher didn't really take any bites, he mostly just sucked on it. Yummy, slobbery apple for Daddy!


























This last one is a video...

What a Great Weekend!

This past Sunday, Asher was dedicated to the Lord. The whole family was there to watch, except for Aunt Kimmers who lives too far away to make it. It was a fun weekend all around. Here are some of the highlights.

A delicious cake brought by Grandma and Grandpa Lein. Mmmmm, white cake with chocolate frosting just like mommy asked for!







The whole family together...










Asher and Lula playing tug of war. Asher tried so hard to win! He hooked the rope around the mirror on his walker and tried backing away. But Lula held on tight and yanked the rope and he crashed, walker and all, back into the couch! Mommy tried to grab the video camera but of course they quit as soon as I turned it on.













Grandpa Marble's dress boots....












And Asher got his very first Easter basket! He was able to open it all by himself. His favorite was a little finger puppet duck. He laughed and laughed as it walked up his legs and arms.
