And the 6 month stats are in!

Dr. says that Asher is perfect. I tend to agree. ;)

Height: 27 in (75th percentile)
Weight: 17.5 lbs (50th percentile)
Head: 17 (75th percentil)

It's all about the 7's. Lucky kid!

Hahaha, April. Yes, APRIL was my last update.

Before you judge, let me recap a normal day for you:
6 am: wake up, groggily fumble with phone to turn off alarm.
6:15 am: wake up for real, rush through a shower, grab my stuff and hit the road
6:45-7:30: bang head on steering wheel while sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic
7:30-4:30: Work magic, hold a few hands, make a billion phone calls. No, I don't work in a daycare, but it sure seems like it sometimes! Oh, and also add in some milking sessions (Crass I know) three times a day, as time allows.
4:30 (or sometimes 5, 6, or 7 pm): Rush home, braking intermittently for the Jim-Carey-A-la-"Me, Myself & Irene"-cops along the highway.
5:30: Snuggle the heck out of my baby.
7 pm: Reluctantly put my baby to bed.
8 pm: Eat dinner & do some chores.
10 pm: Pass out, only to be woken up at 3-4 hour intervals to pop a boob into the wee one's mouth.

But I digress!

Asher is growing and developing by leaps and bounds. It's positively amazing to watch him grow. In the past week he's started pushing up on his knees, rocking back and forth (and then faceplanting), scooting backwards, and screaming "mamamamamamamamamamama!" Oh and blowing "raspberries" that accomplishes nothing but spitting drool all over e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.

WHEW.

We're taking him in for his 6 month checkup on Monday. (Holyshitwherehasthetimegone?!) Will come back with stats ASAP!

And without further ado:

Might be time to update!

I'm not sure that anyone actually reads this blog, but I told myself I would update it for myself. Well, I've clearly been slacking, but in my defense, I've been busy playing with my adorable baby!

The munchkin is almost 4 months old now (holy shit time flies!). He smiles and giggles and about two weeks ago, discovered he could roll over. But only from his back to his tummy. When he's awake and rolls over, this pisses him off and he starts wailing. When he's asleep, he's quite content to just keep snoozing, so I guess we've got a tummy sleeper. This, however, terrifies me and Mr. Olive, but if we flip him over, he either wakes up and gets mad, or just promptly rolls back. What can ya do?

Poor kiddo has also started teething. We thought he had a few weeks ago, but now we're pretty positive. He'll just start gripping his gums with his hands and screaming in pain. :( He's also much crankier, drooling like a mofo, and has some nicely flushed cheeks.

And now, without further ado, a (somewhat) recent photo of the love of my life:
