8 Months

Sweet, darling Asher boy turned 8 months old on Friday.  

He's now sitting up really well on his own (but I still wouldn't leave him alone on concrete)

You'd never know that this cutie has been sick for a week (not bad, just a tummy bug that is taking forever to pass).  He just keeps smiling through it all!

He's getting so big that tonight I was able to put both boys in the tub together and bathe them at the same time - they loved it!

Yes, I did photoshop in hats on the boys' parts.  They'll thank me later!

Somebody was pretty psyched to be a big guy like his big brother

And here are the boys side-by-side at 8 months.  Just to be different, Caden is on the left and Asher on the right (just kidding, that's what I always do!).  

I think Asher has really changed a lot in the last month. He's turning into such a little man!  He's getting close to crawling but isn't quite there yet (that's a lot of mass to move!).  He gets up on all fours and rocks, but he can't figure out how to move; however, I expect that by his 9 month update he'll be on the go.  

Basher, you're getting too big, too fast for your old Mama (which, by the way, you're saying.  You just don't mean me yet!). I'm trying my best (and succeeding very well, if I do say so myself) to enjoy every little moment with you.  You instantly steal the hearts of everyone you meet.  Today at church you had a line of ladies wanting to hold you!  You smiled and cooed at all of them, but I'm happy to report that only Mommy could fix it when you were tired and wanted to snuggle.  Slow down just a teensy bit, will you big guy?
