3 Months



My sweet little guy is 3 months old. He is such an angel and is rolling over a lot and smiles and laughs often. He started daycare this week and his teachers said he never is fussy and is all smiles....sounds like my guy.

A Couple of Photos of Asher

The sweet chunky monkey smile of Asher's....it cracks me up because he just looks chunky and silly.



Asher is showing off his muscles.

January, 2012





It is January and the weather is beautiful right now. Our winters are more like a fall in Minnesota and the trees are starting to change colors, which always makes me nostalgic for home. I still have a couple of weeks home before I have to go back to work, so I am starting to get sad to leave my little guy. He sure is a sweet baby and smiles all the time. I have yet to really hear him cry, so I have been blessed with two easy going babies. Asher and Carsten like doing "tummy time" together and my little 2 1/2 month old rolled over last night. Of course Carsten had to show me how he can roll over too. Mitch and I walked yesterday with Boedy and Asher for about 2 hours and Boedy enjoyed his bed all day after the walk....he looked so sweet.

Happy 2012











Yay, it is a new year and what I think will be an exciting year with our two boys getting bigger by the day. Asher turned 2 months on December 19th and weighed 13 lbs and 13 oz and was 24 inches tall. He has doubled his birth weight and I marvel at the fact of how big he is getting. I look back at his newborn babies and it doesn't even seem like the same baby. We had a good Christmas and New Year. The Johnson family came from Minnesota and Carsten loved having his cousins around. The weather has been gorgeous and as I write this, Mitch and Carsten are waiting to go to the park and hit some golf balls, so I better not keep them too long.

Our 1 Month Old













Asher is 1 month old today and I can't believe how quickly the time has gone. He is a fairly mellow baby and very sweet. He has his moments of sleeping well at night, but we know a good night's sleep is not going to come for quite some time.


Unfortunely he seems to have the same food sensitivities that Carsten had and we will most likely have to follow a strict diet of a special formula you can't buy in stores. I am hoping the medicine he currently is taking will do the trick, but I know better. Soon we will be having visits to the GI doc all too often for my taste, but I know I am lucky if this is all I need to deal with.


Carsten is continuing to do pretty well as a big brother but certainly has his moments. I got bit for the first time yesterday and I know that is not in my little boy's character so we will have a date tomorrow to have some mom and Carsten time.

Carsten's Conferences







Here is Carsten's assessment after his first part of school. I always get so nervous, but I know he is fully capable and incredibly sweet. Mitch went this time and I stayed back with Asher.
