Asher turned three months old today.  He now looks like a “normal” baby.  Aside from the wires that are still attached to him, and the shaved spot on his head that is just now starting to grow back, you wouldn’t be able to tell he was a preemie.  We have come along way from the [...]

Asher is the noisiest baby I have ever been around - the kid grunts all the time. I thought it would be fun to share some of those noises with you as I don’t believe I’ve posted a video of the little guy for a while. Be sure to watch this through the [...]

This is what we found Asher doing while taking a late night bottle last night.  We’ve since given him the nickname Pastor Ash….or not….

It is now 12:45 and I am up because Asher isn’t feeling well.  I think to myself, “I hate not being able to sleep whenever I want.  I hate holding Asher when he is screaming in my face…” but then he does something crazy…he stops, opens his eyes and looks at me.  In that brief [...]

I came across the song Healer on a Planetshakers album shortly after we made it home from Charleston.  I didn’t know the back story, or that it was going to be on Hillsong’s new album.  Check out the video below which goes into detail about how the song came to be:

Its Saturday and I’m really, REALLY, tired.  So I thought I would post a few photos that I took of Asher and edited in Adobe Lightroom.  I have not had the program long, but absolutely love it.  If you are any type of photographer, you have to check it out.

Which one is your favorite - [...]

and you can’t help but smile. As I type this, we are now well beyond 24 hours in and Asher is doing great. The rest of us, on the other hand, are still trying to figure things out. Having two kids is TOTALLY different than bringing home your first. Couple that [...]
