Asher has been going through a lot of changes the past two weeks. He has gotten two teeth, sat up by himself, learned to crawl, and he is already starting to pull himself up on things. All these changes means no sleep! So getting up 5 or so times a night gets very tiring! He had his very first Easter and he was the cutest! He also loves to suck on bananas and strawberries, I think he is going to be a fruit boy.
Andrew and I made some changes to our diets and have been eating pretty healthy and exercising everyday. We have been doing T25 and it has been kicking our butts! Well the other night Andrew brought home pizza and breadsticks and it just made us both sick. So I think sticking to the healthy foods is whats best for us!
The snow that we woke up to this morning makes us even more excited to go to California in a month. Looking forward to warm weather and sandy beaches and of course DISNEYLAND! If anyone has any tips and tricks to make things go smoothly with a 8 month old on vacation let us know! ;)

So this little stinker now has not one but two teeth!! He hasn't got crawling down quite yet but he does figure out how to get somewhere if he want to. He is sitting up pretty well and is just having a blast. Just don't ask about how he has been sleeping while those teeth have been coming in...

What a cutie!

Now a little bit about what's been going on with Andrew and myself. Andrew has a new schedule at work so he doesn't have the same days off and is working longer hours. It's been a little hard and will be getting harder when he starts working 7 am to 7 pm next month. This will mean that he won't see Asher at all except for on his days off and on Sundays, so that will be really hard on all of us. Asher loves his dad so much and I'm worried about how he will handle it. 

Also I'm doing herbalife and making our eating a little healthier, which has been so nice! We both started t25 and it's been hard but also fun. I love the sore feeling you get just because you know your working hard. We have loved the healthy changes we are making. 

If anyone doesn't know about what's been going on with our husky here is a little background. We got him from some people that live around an hour away from us, we picked him up when he was 6 weeks old. They went out to get him from the barn when we showed up. We found out shortly after that he had worms, so we had him treated for that. Shortly after that he started having urine problems so we have taken him to the vet several several times because they couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. Well this past week we took him to a specialist in salt lake (yes, it was expensive...) they found out his prostate gland is really big, they also want us to do some biopsies to see if there could be other problems. We unfortunately don't have 3200 to spend right now. So within the next few months we will be getting him fixed, that won't be that big of a blow to our wallet. If he is still having problems after that then we will have to take him in for the other surgery to get the biopsies done. Poor little guy has gone through a lot, so hopefully he will be feeling better soon.  

Our family has been just a little busy lately, last week we ended up taking Asher to urgent care, he had been running a really high fever, wouldn't eat, coughed a ton, and over all was just a miserable sad boy. It ended up that he had the flu. We are happy to say that he is better and back to his happy self! He had his doctors appointment two days ago and got 5 shots and one oral vaccine, he was such a good boy. He didn't cry until the fourth shot and as soon as Andrew picked him up he stopped crying. He is still measuring as a little guy. Staying under 10% in everything, he currently weighs 14 pounds and 4 ounces. He is still stealing everyones heart that comes around him. He loves to smile at everyone and has the perfect long eyelashes!
This week we celebrate both Andrews and my birthday! Hooray! Mine is tomorrow (21) and Andrews is Sunday (25). So this weekend we will be going out to the cheesecake factory for dinner, its also Andrews weekend off so Asher and I are so glad to be able to spend it with him.
Andrew and I have been making some changes lately (cheating every once in a while) but we are trying to be more healthy, so eating right and exercising. Every once and a while I will post some of the meals we have that we really like. Tonight we are having something we have had in the past but it is really good, and I like to think that it is kinda healthy haha. You put some chicken in the crock pot and pour salsa on top of it and cook it on low for around 5 to 6 hours. We put it on rice and do a side salad or some veggies to go along with it. If you haven't tried it I would recommend it! Asher and I also go for a walk at least once a day, its almost 2 miles that we walk and its been so nice to go out in the nice weather and get Asher out of the house. If anyone has any recipes or good workouts let us know! Or if you know where we live and know any good walking paths I would love to know!

Look at this little cutie! He is now 6 months old! He is doing so much better after last week, we took him into urgent care last week and he tested positive for the flu, it was a rough couple days and I felt terrible there was nothing I could do to help him. On top of that we are pretty sure his bottom two teeth are right under the gums. He is still super close to crawling and we are super excited but also nervous about keeping him out of everything.
Andrew starts the busy season at work now and it will definitely be hard, right now he is starting to work 8-6 and they might switch next month and do 7-7. It will definitely be hard on both of us, me because I won't have help with asher at all. And him because he won't get to see asher. Asher goes to bed between 7 and 8 so he will probably be going to bed when Andrew gets home.
I'm definitely so excited for summer! Asher and i have been going for walks every day since the warm weather started. Our walk is almost 2 miles long and it's just so nice to get him out of the house and enjoy the peace and warmth. Goodbye winter!!
