Outer Banks 2011

Ok, I know, I know. When it rains, it pours.  I finally had time to sit down and get all these pictures on the blog, which has resulted in 4 posts in one day.  

This year was a great one at the OBX.  Asher met all of his extended family on his mommy's side and got to spend lots of time on the beach.  

This look alike contest with Uncle John was not planned.

What a good Grampy!

Nam had fun with the nieces and nephews as always :)

More pool time

Daddy!

Uncle Aaron doing what he does best.  Besides grad work of course :)

Hanging with cousin Joshy

He seemed to like the water

This is a picture of one of Asher's first kisses...lol.  He is mesmerized! Future wife Breckyn??

Sleeping at the Sound with Grampy. haha.

Everyone needs some good Nana-time!

5 months old!!

On August 29th, Asher turned 5 months old. He's getting so big so fast. We spent Labor Day weekend with family and Asher got to be held and played with by lots of family. Everyone's so great with him and he always has a great time laughing and practicing talking. :)

Loves his exersaucer. Thanks for opening us up to that whole new world Aunt Lauren!!

He makes lots of crazy faces not too.

5 months old!!

Getting ready for bed

Co Thuy giving my arms a break.  Thank you!!

Uncle Donnie explaining a thing or two to Asher, and Asher listened SO attentively.  It was hilarious. :)

Audrey and Sydney spent lots of time holding Asher during their visit from Houston.

He loved you guys!!!

Hook 'em

Ok, here's a better one that shows the hat. This post is for his daddy :) Hook 'em Horns!

Fly, Eagles, Fly :)

Asher was SO ready for the first Eagles game on Sunday...E-A-G-L-E-S Eagles!!!!!! For the win! You can't see it very well in this pic (I'll post a better one later), but his hat looks like a football. Thanks to Carrie Benkert at EllieOh's hats on etsy.com. It is adorable!!!

Was the summer so, so fun?!

Wow, this summer flew by and we had so much fun watching Asher totally grow by leaps and bounds.  He's rolling like a champ (all over the place), starting to think about getting up on all fours at times (yikes!), and just developing into more and more of his own personality. He's a real smiley guy :)

He got to do a lot of firsts this summer.  First plane trip, first beach trip (including first road trip), first Phillies game (including first away game, first subway/train ride, and first rain delay..haha), and first time meeting most of mommy's side of the family! And he was a trooper though it all :)

Go Phillies!!!!  

Meeting Geema for the first time. I think it's safe to say they both had a good time together :)

Meeting Grammy for the first time!

  I'll post more pictures later of our escapades this summer with both sides of the family.  But for now, Asher is up from his nap and the rest of the pics on the external hard drive. Until later!!
