First trip to the ranch as a family of three!

July 5th
We've begun to notice Asher grabbing and holding both of his feet while on his diaper changing pad.

July 4th
Asher saw his first fireworks and loved them! He stayed awake for the whole show on Fort Knox, KY, and the loud noises didn't bother him. We had a blast!

June 29th
A weekly update- Asher's talking up a storm! He makes all kinds of conversational sounds, giggles, and "yells" (rather than cries). He can sit up for a couple of seconds at a time, but still no signs of rolling over. He enjoys tummy time more than he used to though, so maybe it'll be soon!

June 20th
4 Month Check-up stats: 19 lbs 3 oz (100%), 26 inches long (94%), Head Circumference 48%
-Healthy as a horse!

June 12th
Made sweet potato puree and Asher seemed to like it! His first real solid food meal (other than the teeny tiny bite of cookie dough Thane gave him about a week ago, haha). See photos here.

June 9th
We had a giggling baby this evening, he was laughing at my upside-down face and the funny noises I was making at him. This wasn't the first little giggle we'd heard from him, but this was by far a real laughing fest compared to the few times before.

June 6th
Asher slept from 10pm-7:45am! For three nights straight! (Which means he's established sleeping through the night, for the most part).

June 1st
Asher starts to lick his lips when we say the word "hungry" to him, haha! He's also starting to rub his eyes when he's sleepy, awww :)

He enjoyed chewing on an apple wedge today, too!
