Almost One




Hey Everybody - Mom thought that, since I'm almost one, I should get on here and give you an update. My first official word was uh-oh - although it often sounds like uh-uh. I say it when I throw my food on the floor (I do this frequently when I am all finished) and when I fall down. I probably say it about 50x/day! I also say "mama" and according to Mom, I am addressing her when I say it. :) I have started using some sign language and the most consistent sign is "more." I haven't gained as much weight as I did during my first six months but Mom does think that I am taller. She is hopeful that I check out okay at my upcoming well-child check. I am crawling like a champ and am faster than I look. I also walk along furniture and walls and get into EVERYTHING that I shouldn't! Mom knows when I turn and look at her with a sly smile that I am ready to make my move. It's a good thing that she's really fast - it keeps me out of trouble.
We both miss Daddy and Saela. We are so excited for them to join us down here in North Carolina. We miss Jax and Jilly too -Mommy keeps saying that they're going to get fat with all of the food that ends up on the floor. Well, I guess that's about all for now. I hope you are all doing well!
Love,
Asher

The Pout

When I do not get my way, I start out looking like this...


...often I find I must "turn it up a notch" with a head cock and eyebrow furrow.

This either results in a
MELTDOWN

or an "I'm trying to hide it smile."
Funny thing...Daddy thinks these faces make me look just like Mommy.

At Last...

...some photos.







It's nearly impossible to get them both to "say cheese" at the same time!
