The Latest on Asa

Playing Hard

Sleeping sweetly-

It's a cold, November day and Asa decided he wanted to go to the pool so he got himself dressed. He was disappointed when I had to say "not today."

Don't leave a 2 year old unattended with yogurt-

Working hard making special Thanksgiving necklaces for his Grandmas.

My Beautiful Babies

I hope he always looks at her this sweetly-

New Norah Pics

It's 18 degrees outside and...

Asa thinks he's ready to go play outside.

In his defense, he did grab his coat as well.

Yay for the season's first snow!

This is the first time Asa's been interested in the snow. :)

Some sweet pics

Asa requested this shirt for school because it's "like Daddy's."

At the doctor.

Wearing his Australian kangaroo shirt from Mimi.

Sweet little profile.

1 month Norah

Norah is already 1 month! It went by way too quickly and, assuming she's our last, it's sad to think I won't have another brand new baby. :(

On a happier note, she's a fantastic baby! She cries when she needs something, she's a good sleeper (and sleeps on her back in the bassinet which Asa never did), she goes right back to sleep when we wake during the night, she's a good eater (though has a tendency to snack), and she loves to snuggle. 

Asa loves his little sister though chooses to never call her 'Norah,' only 'little sister.' He gives her a pacifier when she's crying, will go check on her if we've left her sleeping in another room, and likes to kiss the top of her head. Occasionally, he'll request that I 'put it down' so I can focus on him, but he is 2! 

At her 1 month check up, she weighed a whopping 9 lbs 1 oz and was 21 inches. In other words, she's gained almost 2 pounds and has grown over 2 inches!

We love our sweet girl and can't wait to see her grow and develop throughout her first year. :)

Asa requested we take a few with him as well...

Halloween 2014!

A few days before Halloween, Asa had a parade at his school that I got to attend. It was super cute and Asa was an awesome shark!

Here's a short video of the parade:

On Halloween, Norah donned a witch hat. She's by no means a witch, but she needed a costume!

We took them trick or treating on our street and Asa did great! He learned how to knock on doors. Occasionally, he would say "trick or treat" to a closed door, and we had to remind him that he's supposed to wait until someone opens the door. :)

One neighbor asked Asa what he was to which he responded, "my name is Asa." The best part? No fit when it was time to go home and he's forgotten all about his candy so I'm not having to ration it out each day. I fear that may not be the case next year...
