Asher (at 6 months) has a habit of...

Getting his leg stuck in his little play gym!

Asher at 6 1/2 months

I'm finally used to saying Asher is 6 months old, but now I can't believe he's soon to be 7 months. Sheesh...

Here are some things he's up to:
-Eating his Nature's Best jar food. Loves them all. I get new flavors for him each time I see them. Still a vegetarian.
-No more breastmilk for him. Doug and I decided at 6 months we'd stop. Now I mix Enfamil Premium with Similac Soy for him.
-Rolling back and forth across his blankets.
-He has two teeth!
-Says "Da, Da, Da, Da, Da".
-Still would rather 'stand' than work on perfecting sitting up on his own.
-Graduated to the Infant 2 room at daycare.
-Finally old enough for the jogging stroller, so he's joined mommy and daddy for runs around Memorial park and other events.

Welcome Henry Allan Bird!

My sister-in-law Lindsey and bro-in-law Steve welcomed their first child, Henry Allan Bird tonight. He was HUGE and surpassed Asher & Evan's weight at 8 lbs 9 oz! I got to meet him the next day officially. He is just awesome, and I'm so happy for his healthy delivery. There are now THREE grandson's all 1 year and younger. Good luck to Popsi & Nonna now. ;)

The Heffernan's New House!

Doug's sister Lauren and bro-in-law Ryan just recently purchased a house in Baytown. They were commuting quite a distance from Humble everyday since their jobs and their kids 'schools' were in Baytown/Deer Park. Well we were able to see their awesome house for the first time.

I could not believe how much they got done so fast. Their walls were decorated, things were nearly fully unpacked (in the entertaining areas 100%) and it was so beautiful. There is so much space and I know they are very happy with their purchase. All the work they put in to make it look like a real home was truly jaw-dropping. I LOVE their new home!

So many updates...

So our internet has been out for 2 1/2 weeks here at home. It's not such a big deal since Doug and I are still connected via our phones, but it did affect my blog updates. We've taken many photos in the meantime, so stay tuned for updates.

Thanks!
