Today marks the half year anniversary of the day that Asa joined our family! Time truly does fly by and it's hard to imagine what life was like without him. He's doing all sorts of "big boy" stuff like sitting up and laughing at his siblings but he still has no teeth, though he's been teething for ages. Katie took these pictures today whilst Daddy make Asa smile. :-)
I get such a warm feeling when I watch how all of the other children dote on him; every new thing he does is greeted by a crowd of smiling faces. I think it must be a very nice thing to be the youngest child in a big family. :-)
Happy 6 months birthday little man, we love you!
Oh, what a precious little nugget he is! And he looks like he is loaded with personality...but then with so many siblings, he probably can't help it! What a blessing he is.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the affirmation thing. I think my parents had similar ideas, because they always seemed to put their focus on the good thoughts/actions of my brother and me, encouraging more of the good in us rather than only pointing out and trying to deal with the bad.
Too cute! He is just the bee's knees :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, and I loved your thoughts on approaching the new arrival of a wee brother or sister. Great! Wise words indeed and I must remember to think before affirming certain thoughts with my littles.
Blessings,
Sommer
How wonderful, Paris, and how precious. And you, my dear, certainly do NOT look like the mother of nine! Blessings to you, and thank you for sharing your pictures. :0)
