Vote for Asher Benjamin!




So even though we said we never would, we entered our little guy in the Gerber Baby photo contest. I figure, the baby that wins will probably have a massive family of internet addicts who will all find away to vote multiple times a day...but why not give it a shot? Its a $25,000 scholarship afterall......

Help us out by voting for Asher everyday until the end of the month! Paste the link to your favorites folder and vote every morning when you check your email. So far Asher has 22 votes....and some of the other babies have 100! Help us catch up!

Cuteness Abiding Baby



So first off, I woke up this morning to the Seahorse playing music....which was weird because my husband was not in the room. I leaned over and Asher was sleeping with his forhead resting on the seahorse's head and his hands holding its belly. I rolled over and decided to read.....five minutes later the music stops and I hear a faint giggle and the music started again. I rolled over Asher is still asleep with a cute little smile on his face and the seahrose in a bear hug! Five mins later the music stops and restarts....hes still sleeping. So cute.

Then and I don't know why I think this is cute, I had Asher on the floor and he was trying with all his might to get on his knees and crawl....he can army scootch forward, but he watched my neice crawl around the other day and he wants part of the crawling crowd. After about ten mins he gave up, rolled onto his face and let one long accusitory screeth out at me and gave me the side eye....then rolled back onto his stomach and tried again! Like its my fault! Haha

And finally we had put the play mat away a few weeks ago...he never had much interest in it, but today I decided to take it out to see if he has grown some interest....and in those few weeks he has learned to turn from back to front, front to back, and over and over....so now he doesn't know what to do with himself! He rolls to one toys, chews on it, three seconds later...he rolls to the next...chews on it while spying another one! Poor kid....can't decide what he wants!
