Happy 1/2 Asher!

1/2 a year?!  Where did it go?  This kid is growing by leaps and bounds and totally ahead of the curve on lots of things.  I keep telling him to slow down, there's plenty of time to catch up to brother and sister, but alas, my words aren't changing anything.  We love this adorable guy, couldn't imagine life without him and are so thankful every day that God has blessed and entrusted us with this little man.

I read a book that said when your kid starts reaching for your food, then it's time for them to eat.  Well, Asher is ready.  I sat him on my lap and could barely restrain him from grabbing all the food off of Calvin's plate, so we decided it was time for him to get some too.  As of now, he's tried banana, oatmeal and peas...the only he didn't like was oatmeal, but I don't blame him because it was mixed with formula and well, it didn't look appealing to me either.

He now crawls...mostly an army crawl, but he will get up on all fours and take one step forward.  He can now sit like a flowerpot, but since he crawls he doesn't stay in that position for very long.  He also does a very nice downward dog.

Here is the little man.

And for those of you who never see the little guy upset...it does happen, just not a lot...but when it does...
