asher's new years resolution

was sleep. well, he didn't tell me so, but his actions since the night of the 1st seem to validate my theory. i'm really trying not to get excited or think that by any means this will stick, but i am loving the extra sleep. i am waiting for the ball to drop though.

after 6 months of waking up at least 3 times each night and then after 2 weeks of nonstop wakings throughout the night, here's the lowdown.

the night of the 1st he slept from 7-12, 12:15-5:30 and then 5:45-8.

the night of the 2nd he slept from 8-4 and 4:30-8

last night he slept from 8:30-4:30 and 5-9

i can't even begin to tell you how much energy i have. i feel like bouncing off the walls!

in other baby news, asher has been on oatmeal for a week now and just yesterday we started sweet potatoes. he wasn't sure about the sweet potatoes, but we'll keep a'tryin'.

this morning he decided it was time to start walking in his walker. though he's taken a few steps here and there in it, this morning he was in the kitchen, saw me in the living room and walked all the way over to me! crazy boy!!
he's really starting to get fast at grabbing things too. i know it's been a gradual progression, but just within the past week, we've really noticed how he's reaching and grabbing and pulling for things. watching asher grow has been so amazingly cool. he's growing up so fast!

and finally, last week he finally decided to roll from both his back to his tummy and his tummy to his back. he's been a little delayed on that milestone. i haven't been worried because he can do everything else, he just hates his tummy time, so why roll over!

so that's our kiddo growth and res. update. i hope y'all had a fab Christmas and new year and whatever holiday you celebrate. welcome to the new year my friends. may it be one filed with memories and opportunities to reach out to old friends, new acquaintances and those in need.
