Presenting Asher Joseph Steele


On Wednesday, my brother and his wife had their first child, Asher Joseph. We went to Louisville to meet the little guy today. He is a perfect, precious little baby. He's strong, healthy, and has a great disposition. Andrew and Sarah are doing a great job as first time parents. When seeing and holding him, it was hard for me to believe that Aubrey was that small. It's so crazy how soon we forget. Aubrey suddenly didn't seem like a baby anymore. I feel like I should still have a newborn-not a toddler! Aubrey always seems so tiny to me, but today she was huge! It was fun to see her so interested in Asher. She was dying to touch him, and she knew that he was something different.

Asher is beautiful, and I can't wait until the next time we get to see him.

I got a new camera for Christmas, and we had fun having a photo shoot with Asher. He was such a trooper! Here are some of the shots I took.

What we've been up to


I've enjoyed this past month so much. With my two weeks off for Christmas break, and my snow days I've been off work for a whole month! Aubrey has hit a major milestone. She is walking! She started right after Christmas. She had been taking steps for about a month, but one day at my friend Jennifer's house, she took off. I guess she was following little Madeline's example! Anyway, we have had so much fun with it. She looks too tiny to be walking, and walking so well. She can stand up in the middle of the floor, change directions, and bend to pick things up. We are so proud of our little athlete. She is also into everything now, but it's fun chasing her around. The slideshow above is from me chasing her around one afternoon.

We've also had some SNOW! Not much, but it was enough that we were out of school for six days! I got a little cabin fever, and so did Aubrey. She does much better when she is out and about. We had to capture some pics of her first snow.



Love this pic!
After all the snow, and freezing weather, we were so happy to have a sunny, warm day. We got out and played with our camera yesterday and took some outdoor pics. Aubrey loved being outside and looking at the cows. We couldn't hardly keep her from climbing the fence.


I want the cows!


Look at the camera!
