Camping

This weekend we went camping. Asa and I drove down Friday afternoon with three friends from church. James left after work with some other people. We got there and set up the tents in the dark. I was thankful that it wasn't raining and the ground was dry when we were doing this. Asa just sat quietly in a little high chair we had borrowed from some friends while we set up the tents. The rest of the group (14 in all) got there by midnight. The first night went really well. Asa slept the whole night in his pack and play. It rained during the night and was still raining when we got up Saturday morning. Everyone but Asa and me went canoing. The trip was 15 miles and took most of the day. Asa and I just hung around the campsite. We played, sang songs, took naps and just had a nice relaxing day. By the time everyone got back from canoing, it was dinner time. A couple guys started a fire and we had hamburgers and hot dogs. And who can go camping without s'mores? It was a lot of fun. Asa had a little trouble falling and staying asleep the second night. I didn't get much sleep either. I couldn't believe how awake he was in the middle of the night. Everyone was very surprised at Asa's overall laid back attitude. He really wasn't fussy much and had fun in the outdoors. That's a good thing about him, he will go wherever we take him and usually is happy just to be with us.

Veggies

Asa had green beans for the first time on Friday. He gaged. To which James said, "Good boy!" I quickly told him never to say that again to Asa. We don't need two boys that don't eat their vegetables. Video will come soon!

Chips

Asa was playing with a bag of tortilla chips. James turned him around and moved him away from the bag. A little later he was back "hitting" the chips and trying to eat them. Now we just can't leave anything on the floor in the living room if we don't want him to get it.

Asa chewing on the table

This is a video of Asa chewing on the table. He likes chewing on everything and he happened to have the table in his mouth. If you listen carefully, you can hear his teeth.

This is a picture of my cute little baby sleeping in his high chair. I should have left him there because he didn't sleep very long when I moved him to his bed.
