Careful...

...I bite!  Well, he now has the potential to, at least! :) 

Yes, Asher has finally gotten his first tooth.  Well, I say "finally" because he's into his 9th month, but in all reality, I've been just fine with those toothless gums!  :)  We can see it and feel it, but it's not really visible in pics yet... so don't strain your eyes.  It's only about a tenth of an inch out of the gums.  :) 

Asher's running pretty much right on the text book schedule with the large motor skills... not early, not late... though we've said it once, we've said it a hundred times, that we think he's workin' on the verbal stuff first, and is doing pretty awesome with the small motor skills...  Anyway, here's the highlights of the week: 

1.  The tooth.
2. He started actually sucking on his sippy cup...after giving it to him at every meal, every single day for the last three months only to have him just chew on the darn thing... we're singing hallelujahs over this one!
3.  Today he made his first attempt at forward motion crawling... we thought he might skip that stage entirely, since he's hated tummy time most of his life and has been pulling up on furniture for over a month... but alas, it seems he might still crawl after all.  :) 

Anyway... here's the pic of the week @ 9 months, 1 week.  Such a joy!


And I'm off...!  Can't take my eyes off this kid for a second anymore when he's in this chair... he was almost on his feet leaning off the chair before I got to him!  All boy for sure.  :)
