Taking Steps!!!!

Asher is starting to be more brave and more independent. And since he is becoming more brave and independent, he is wanting to take more steps. He has started doing this since Wednesday. He has gotten better every day. Today, I think he took about 5-6 steps on his own. He is getting very close to walking. At this rate, he should be walking around Easter. Although, we aren't going to push him. He will be walking when he wants to. I captured this video on Wednesday of him taking two steps. I will probably upload more videos of him walking as he continues to take more steps! Enjoy!

Asher's 1st Birthday - Family

We celebrated Asher's 1st Birthday with our families this past weekend. And we had a housefull of about 17 people! Asher had tons of fun even though he had to have factor that morning. Julie again baked the cakes and cupcakes. She is awesome! Here is a picture of the cakes/cupcakes.



Asher got tons of gifts! One of his favorite toys that he got was a musical guitar from his Uncle Brian. His new thing now is that he bobs his head up and down when he hears music! It is absolutely hillarious! He also got tons of books! Asher loves books! We are very excited that he loves books and we hope that he will continue to love books. We got him a set of 4 Sandra Boynton books! He loves her books and so do we.

Here are some more pictures of his birthday party.

Asher's 1st Birthday - Friends

We celebrated Asher's 1st Birthday on his birthday, Feb. 24, with our friends. Let's just say it was an interesting night! You know things aren't going to go well when you spray punch all over your kitchen/family room. Also, Asher was not feeling very well and was running a fever.

We only had half our friends show up as one family was sick, the other was at the hospital welcoming their new daughter! So there were only about 7 of us at the party and we had lots of food and cake! Speaking of the cake, Julie is an awesome cake baker! She baked all the cakes and she decorated the cakes! She had an awesome time doing it as well. Here are some pictures of the wonderful cakes she made.





As you can see the cakes looked awesome! Julie did such a wonderful job with the cakes. Who knows, maybe she will actually start a side business.

So we put a cupcake in front of Asher and sang him Happy Birthday! We then wanted to see what he would do with it. He didn't seem interested in eating it and eventually we found out why. After he looked at it for a few minutes, he threw up all over it and over himself. It was disgusting!

Walking Behind

Wow, it has been over a month since I have updated the blog. A lot has happened since the last time I updated anything. For example, Asher has been walking behind things for about a month. He has so much fun walking behind things, especially his truck. I have a video that Julie took of him walking behind his truck. He is having so much fun! Enjoy.
