Months 10-12 w/Asher | San Diego Children's Photographer

MONTH 10




Tidbit #12: Asher loves to climb EVERYTHING. Ladders, boxes, containers, bookshelves...you name it.


MONTH 11


Tidbit #13: His first word was 'ball' and then 'dada'. He still does not say 'mama'!! :( Believe me...we work on it EVERY day!


MONTH 12


Tidbit #14: The only time Asher sits still is when he is strapped into his high chair. He can tolerate being held while you walk around doing things around the house, but as soon as you sit with him, or try to rock, he is outta there! Always on the go!







Tidbit #15: Someday, he will know and love Jesus. I know this hasn't happened yet...but this kid is so covered in prayer...I know its bound to happen! :) And God, I'm sure, will do mighty things thru him. He is already such a strong, sweet, funny, determined little individual...we are so proud of him.



We love you Asher! You are such a blessing in our lives. Xoxo!

Months 3-6 with Asher | San Diego Baby Photographer

MONTH 3


Tidbit #5:
Asher thinks he's hysterically funny when he sneezes.

MONTH 4

Tidbit #6:
He will spend hours in the tub if you let him. He LOVES to splash in the water and especially likes to take baths with his big sis.

MONTH 5


Tidbit #7:
His favorite food seems to be watermelon...and pretty much any other kind of fruit.

MONTH 6


Tidbit #8:
He can hear the dishwasher open from a mile away and always comes running to 'help' unload it. I'm just waiting for him to break my washer door from always crawling on top of it to reach dishes.

Asher Jude Burmeister | San Diego New Born Photographer

Aaron and I are proud to announce (to the blog-o-sphere) the birth of our son, Asher Jude Burmeister! Asher was born May 10th, 2010 (our 7th wedding anniversary!) at the Best Start Birth Center, weighing 8lbs 9oz and measuring 22.5".

Asher was born eight days after his due date and a part of me thought he would never come out! When I started to feel that the time was coming close, I resisted my desire to rush to the birth center, knowing that the birthing process usually takes longer than hoped. And so, Aaron and I took our time getting our gear in the car and dropping Abbey off at her Grandma's, etc. By the time we got to the Birth Center I was feeling ready to get 'er done (or get 'im done, I guess?), but our midwife had not arrived yet! We helped ourselves to a room, which was equipped with the water bath that we planned to have Asher in, but we were there alone -- contracting and all that jazz! Yikes! Aaron was mentally preparing himself to deliver the baby solo when the midwife finally walked in. Phew. Water birth was wonderful and we were all done with the whole birthing thing in three hours!

Abbey still likes to think that she is the baby of the family (as evidenced by the picture below), but she also loves her little brother and wouldn't trade him for all the attention in the world. Maybe. In all honesty, she is very proud to be a "big sister" and loves to tell anyone who will listen all about her baby brother.

Motherhood is so precious. Thanks for all your well-wishes and support!

Love,

The New & Improved Burmeister Family
