A Week of Firsts

Asher had many "firsts" this past week. He went to church for the first time last Sunday. I kept him with me in my "peanut shell", which is basically a sling that I carry him around in. (It is very useful around the house when he won't let me put him down). He did really well during the service. He was actually awake for most of it. We sat in the back and he loved hearing Daddy sing!

After church we went to Struts, mommy's FAVORITE restaurant! It was Asher's first time and he slept the whole time we were there.

On Monday, he had his first bath in his bathtub. His umbilical cord finally fell off and he was able to get a bath in the tub.....he didn't like it very much. He screamed the whole time. He has gotten a lot more used to it since then. Today, he actually seemed to enjoy it.

On Wednesday, Zack's sister April and her family came into town from Texas for Thanksgiving and Asher got to meet his cousins for the first time. We had a great time visiting!

On Thursday we packed up and headed to Tennessee to my grandparents--Asher's first visit to Great Grams and Asher's first Thanksgiving! He did great on the two hour drive--he slept the whole time both ways! Great Grams rocking Little Man

To end the week, Asher's first Iron Bowl experience--we went to Eaglepoint to watch the game--Asher slept through most of it--imagine that! Asher's newest cousin was born Saturday too--Marshall Henry Hunter. We don't have any pictures of them together yet, but we know they are going to be good buddies! Here are some pictures of my boys in their Auburn gear.

It was a very busy and eventful week for our boy! We are so thankful for the time we got to spend with our families! Yesterday he turned 4 weeks old. We have been so blessed by this sweet little boy! We go for our one month well baby check up tomorrow--we'll let you know his stats!
