Facial Cues

You know how there are facial cues from babies that tell if they're hungry, tired etc?

This is the face for impending massive spit up.

True Statement

I'm Two Weeks Old

Last weekend I (Asher) turned the big two weeks! Here's what I've been up to:
- I love to pass out on Mom's lap after my meal (see photo)

- Listening to the Olympics in the evening while Daddy holds me is one of my favorite leisure activities.

- About two times in ten I'm able to find my thumb to suck on. The other 8 times I just find my fist.

- I dislike baths and try to sabotage them any way I can. Last night I waited until I was all undressed and then let rip a nice juicy poo into the towel Daddy was holding me in.

- If my Mom or Dad walk into the room I turn my head to look at them. I like to smile at them too ( they like that kind of stuff)

- I'm packing on the weight. I now weigh 8 lbs 13 oz and am quickly outgrowing all my newborn clothes!

I'm off to sleep (again). I'll check back in with y'all again soon.

A Little Confused

Yesterday, Asher was having trouble finding one of his fingers (or fist) to suck on so he settled for my chin.  Luckily no permanent damage was done!

Canine Siblings

Henry has been doing a really good job adjusting to life with Asher around.  He's definitely missing a lot of the attention he used to get, as both Megan and I have found him cuddling up to us a lot more than he used to.  Here he decided that he wanted some attention from me and found a nice place to sit. 

And yes, that slash on my arm is from a knife fight.  I was showing Asher some of the more subtle aspects of handling a switch blade when the guy I was fighting got in a slash.  Don't let Megan make you think it was actually from running into a brick wall at CVS while trying to escape a downpour.  She can be really creative in making up alternative theories. 

Nap Time for All

We had a nice afternoon yesterday reading and catching up on some shows in the basement. Dad and Asher also snuck in a little nap!

Little Hands

Ten tiny fingers that always want to play

That never stop exploring the wonder of today

Ten tiny fingers that from the very start

Will reach out for tomorrow, yet aways hold your heart.
