My Aching Head

Asher went back to the Dr yesterday for a follow-up with his "jonesing" which seems to be much better. I've only seen him do it once or twice a week for the past month. I've decided not to do the EEG, but to wait and see if it gets any worse. Little man hadn't gained much weight since last month, weighing in at 19 lbs 4 oz. I've been having trouble getting him to take a bottle so I got some different nipples and that seems to help.

Although it was Asher's appointment I hogged most of his time talking to Dr Austman about my migraines which have seemed to have flared up again. I was on a preventative shortly before we started trying to get pregnant then I had to get off and I haven't been on anything since. I only had 1 while I was pregnant and about 6 since I've had him.

But last Thursday I had barely got to work before I started seeing spots. For anyone who has never experienced this its CrAzY. It makes it impossible to work on the computer. About an hour later I have up and headed home. I thought I could make it back to Fairbury without getting sick but about 3 miles out of town I had the window down and was trying to "breathe" through it. Maybe I should have taken a Lamaze class. Anyway I ended up puking in my lunch bag as I was pulling into the parking lot out at north park. What a way to start the day.

Since then I haven't been able to get rid of what I call a "functioning headache." Meaning I can still work but am miserable. I had a massage on Tuesday and that helped a little but when we were at the Dr last night I was ready for some real meds. Dr Austman put me back on a preventative and gave me 2 different prescriptions for when I get a migraine. Then I got a shot in the butt for good measure. I think Asher thought it was great to go to the Dr and Mommy had to get a shot while he just watched! So anyway, I'm hoping this new medicine helps!

Playdate with Charlee

On Sunday Beau and Charlee came over to watch the game. Asher & Charlee got to hang out and Grandpa Ray and Grandma Sue stopped by to see them too!

Katelynn's Game

On Saturday we went to Pontiac to watch Katelynn cheer at a basketball game. Asher loved watching and all the attention he got. Sorry, pictures are backwards.

Ladies Man.
Asher & Kate
So excited to watch all the action

Pictures!

We got out Asher's big boy car seat this weekend and got it all adjusted to fit him. I still use his carrier too because sometimes its easier to have him all ready to go in the house than to strap him in the truck and drag him out when we go in somewhere. I think I'll like the new one better once he's big enough to be forward facing.
Our new cheezy grin.

Baby Brynlee

Last Thursday I finally got my hands on Carlee's precious baby Brynlee! She was so sweet and so tiny. Asher is going to have lots of little friends to play with. Brynlee's hair is awesome! So thick and she even had a little bow in her hair. Too cute!

Sorry for the lack of posts. Not much has been going on. Asher and I are going to see Baby Brynlee tonight so hopefully we'll have some good pictures!

Rub-A-Dub-Dub Asher & Boo in the Tub!

OK, I know what you're thinking and NO, I didn't have them in the tub at the same time. I love my BooBear but I wouldn't let it go that far. Besides, poor Boo would be trapped with Asher. Little man loves to watch Boo and tries to grab him whenever he gets close enough (which isn't very often!)
Asher used his new bath seat but wasn't thrilled. He did love the green rubber ducky though.
Poor Boo has to take a bath in his brother's used bath water. Is this what you would call a drowned rat?
On Sunday Asher got up on all fours and stayed there for a little bit. He may be crawling before we know it!

Charlee & Asher. Christmas take 4.

We had our last Christmas on Saturday night with the Lawrence side. These two babies have got to be sick of us taking pictures of them by now!

Asher was so handsome in his plaid shirt!

Haha Love this one.
OK, thats better. Taylor & Heidi
A heated Ship - Captian - Crew game.
RJ pulled out his bundle of ones the next day but he wouldn't give me back the money I lost.
