first steps
I dont have a picture or video yet, but just so you know, Asher took his first steps today (with Josh, he was VERY smug… i should have taken a photo of that smug smile to post on the blog. Haha). Josh is also smug because he wagered a few months ago that Asher would be walking by 9 and a half months and, voila, there it is.
Asher also took his first flip out of his crib today, landing on the floor with a loud thump. Ouch! I suppose it’s time to move to the bigger boy bed with the shorter railing so it’s not such a huge distance to the ground. I’m also planning to start training him to sleep in Judah’s room in preparation for when my family gets here and we need the space.
In other less exciting news, Asher has started waking up at night again, at 4:30 every night for the last 4 nights. He usually goes back to sleep if i get more milk and warm it up, but by the time i’ve done all that and got myself back to bed i cant fall back asleep, which means i’m a wreck for the rest of the day. Somehow i cant sleep during the day either, i reckon it’s because i’ve got too much stuff running through my head. Whatever the case, Josh and i today were both pretty bummed to be so exhausted on a Saturday when our to-do lists are so enormous. He said that we were having sympathy jet lag on behalf of the Slaubaughs, who are just now en route from Paris to Toronto. Yuck. Jet lag without the benefit of going somewhere nice, what a drag! (at least we didnt have to sit in the plane for 11+7 hours to get it though, i guess that’s a bonus).

way to go asher!! you are one motivated little dude. :)
wow! he is way ahead of simon! i think walking might increase simon’s ‘happy’ quotient, but i could be wrong. i thought crawling would do that too and it did, but only mildly. he can crawl great but he will cry at the end of the hall waiting to be picked up rather than just crawl over to where i am. or he will cry his entire crawl down the hall to the room i happen to be in. what a momma’s boy
