Yesterday-Asher turned 7 months old! This month he has been enjoying the world of food. We have worked our way through the veggies and just this week we've started fruit. The only thing he has turned his nose up to is the rice cereal...can't blame him it taste like cardboard to me :-) I have been making Asher's baby food. I didn't do this with
Amesley because the thought of it just overwhelmed me. However, I have found it to be fairly easy and nice to have the food frozen in portions sizes that we use. He is also trying to learn how to get the liquid out of a cup. He has not figured out the tilting it back yet...instead we just chew on the spout.
Asher is now sitting and even able to catch himself sometimes when he falls to the side. He is also getting up into all fours and staying in that position for 1 minute before laying back down. Asher loves to stick his tongue out and spit. He is very aware of his
environment now and becomes upset when mommy leaves the room. Asher loves his sister,
Amesley. When he sees her or she talks to him he smiles
soooo BIG. I pray this love will continue to grow as they grow older. Thank you God for our "Little Asher Man"!

Drawing circles on the sidewalk and hopping in and out. Amesley says, "hop-it, hop-it."

Asher was very excited to taste his first bites of food. He was so intense. He would grab the spoon from me as if to say I was not feeding him fast enough.
It is hard to believe that Asher turned 6 months old yesterday...half of a year has gone by since he was born...WOW! This month has been busy with lots of new things to report. Asher is now rolling everywhere! It is his mode of transportation these days. When I lay him down and come back in the room he has sometimes rolled across the room. Asher has also started making lots of "boy" noises...growling and grunting. Asher enjoys sitting up but still needs some support. He can sit unsupported for a few seconds but then crashes :-) His feet are a new toy these days. Asher also loves standing and playing with all the toys in his exersaucer. Asher is such a happy fella and loves to smile. He also loves to get attention by fake coughing and then smiling when someone looks his way. Thank you Lord for the blessing of Children!
