He has grown so much!
His personality is SO big!
He is very very determined... lol
This month has been much easier.
I've gotten used to him and he has gotten used to me.
He smiles lots and loves when I fake sneeze Haha..
He now weighs 10 lbs 4 oz as of a week ago and eating lots!
He sleeps for about 4 to 6 hours for the first part of the night then 2 to 3 hours after that..
But then there are nights like last night where he wakes up at 3:30 and thinks it's time to wake up...Needless to say I was up for about 2 to 3 hours trying to get him to sleep!
Anyways...
We went to his 2 month appointment, it was awful!
He was all happy and just hanging onto Jareds fingers when the nurses poked him in both legs and his eyes went HUGE then he went silent and went more and more red, until the cry came out and the nurses were done and he had tears rolling down his face and Jared picked him up (before we went in I said okay You can hold him before the shots but I get him right after he gets them) and you'd think he had hurt Asher by the way I was looking at him. I wanted to hold my baby I think I said Give him to me. ( I turned into a momma bear) Jared gave him to me and oh my goodness he had the saddest cry I'd ever heard him have and I got teary eyed and Jared did too. It was terrible.
The next day and a half he was just so sad and sore, I cried because I wanted to take the pain away. I know it's a good thing we had him get his shots but it was so hard!
Back to good knews Asher is, I believe, 22 inches long and he is growing out of his newborn clothes and in 0-3 months.
He still hasn't laughed while awake but still laughs in his sleep.
This month I started working out and no progress showing yet but I'll keep at it!
My goal is 135! I was at 140 when I first got pregnant, never thought i'd wish I was that weight again... but being 24 lbs heavier than that makes me really wish I was back down there!
None of my pants fit yet so I'm trying to crack down on my eating habits...
I'm not eating bad food I'm just still eating too much to lose any weight.
Let me tell you... It is so hard to make myself work out!
Asher takes all my attention and when he naps I hurry and clean and try and work out but sometimes he wakes up in the middle of the workout..
I've let him cry for a while and it makes me feel terrible (when I went in to get him he had tears and was sweaty from crying!) so I don't do it as much, sooo it goes into my workout time.
Something that has helped me a lot with getting things done is making a to do list.
I've caught myself watching too much tv and once I look at my list I get things done,
MOSTLY....
I never thought one little baby could take up sooo much time in one day!
First I feed him every two hours he eats anywhere from 15-35 minutes then he needs a diaper change and sometimes he wants to be held or he wants me to play with him then he is happy and I can put him down on his play mat so I can clean or make dinner.. Or sooo on then it's time to feed again and the whole routine starts again.
It's a surprise I can even make time to eat with this babies schedule.
I'm not complaining at all!
But as I'm writing this I'm surprised I get anything done!
But I'm proud to say my apartment is clean 90% of the time and laundry is done 90% of the time so I think I've accomplished at least that!
He is the sweetest little guy,
sometimes he stares me straight in the eyes and it feels as if he is looking straight into my soul.
He has such loving eyes I just want to squish his face!
My little guy takes a 1-2 hour nap right after he first wakes up in the morning then a 2-4 hour nap around 1pm and if he misses it, you'd think he was dying he gets so fussy.
Smiling with his whole face! I love it!
(this mat is in a lot of pictures because it's how I measure how much he's grown)
The sad lip!
I wish Y'all could hear the whimper he does with it, Jared and I say he sounds like a mouse, or a kitten
I just want to squeeze him!
I love these pj's on him! but he's grown out of them now =(
He loves his new light up toy that nana cannon got him
Little man got blessed!

Overall this month has been a great learning period and I'd like to think I'm getting the hang of it!
To infinity and beyond!!!
Handsome like daddy!
(this mat is in a lot of pictures because it's how I measure how much he's grown)
(see in this one he is one month old and now he covers the whole thing!)
Little man loves sleeping in his car seat.
I wish Y'all could hear the whimper he does with it, Jared and I say he sounds like a mouse, or a kitten
Cutest sad cry in the world! But it breaks my heart when the tears start rolling down his cheeks!
I love these pj's on him! but he's grown out of them now =(
Asher sure loves his daddy! When Jared comes home he tries to twist all around to see him. In this picture Jared is singing to him to help calm him down. (I think this was right after his 2 month shots, which I must say were HORRIBLE!)
Thanks for reading!
