15 weeks....

and already teething!!

I don't know why I'm even surprised by this see how I was born with 2 teeth... but I just keep thinking that maybe he won't get everything from me!!

I took Asher to a new pediatrician today and I absolutely love her. She was very personable and friendly. I have a feeling I'm going to be much happier with her as Asher's doctor.

And he weighed in at a whopping 14 lbs 7 oz! No one can ever say I don't feed my baby!!

Hi, I'm Jessica

and I'm addicted to couponing.

So silly, I know, but you don't understand the thrill you get when you are standing at the check out watching the total drop significantly after you hand the nice cashier all of your coupons. I've only been doing it for a couple weeks and I have cut my grocery bill in half. Yes, I buy things that I wasn't buying as frequently before, but I'm also getting it free or very close to it. I suggest couponing to everyone! As a new mom, who is working 2 different jobs, I still have time to fit it in! I absolutely love it.

3 months old

I don't know where the time has gone and how it's already been 3 months since the babes was born. He isn't considered a newborn anymore :( Asher is such a blessing in our lives and we are so grateful that we have him to call ours forever.

Here are some fun facts about him!

  • Still sucks his fingers all.the.time. It's nice that he has found a way to self sooth, but I'm really nervous that it's starting a bad habit.
  • He weighs 13 lbs 15 oz
  • He loves to watch his baby einstein's videos. When there is a part that he really likes, he will kick his legs and wave his arms!
  • He is sleeping in his crib - Mom finally got brave enough to move him!
  • He sleeps though the night! 8:30 p.m. to 7 a.m.
  • He absolutely loves bath time
We're still trying so hard to get him to laugh! He is so close that I can't stand it anymore. I'm so afraid he is going to giggle the first time and I won't be around to hear it.

Asher's 1st Halloween

For Halloween this year Asher was a lawn gnome! I absolutely loved his costume, and I'm afraid I'll never be able to beat it. I put him in a plaid shirt and cords that we already had, then his Nana Jeni made him a hat, beard and suspenders! Everyone loved the costume, I was so glad I thought of it in the middle of the night!



On Saturday we went to Schnepf Farm. It was a fun family activity, but it will be way more fun when Asher is a couple years older so he can do all the fun activities for kids! We took Toby with us and all the kids loved him. I'm glad we got out as a family and did something new.
