We have a baby brother!!!

On Tuesday, July 16, we welcomed a beautiful, perfect baby brother to our family! Asher William was born at 2:02 PM. He was 6 lbs. 9 oz. at birth and 19 inches long. He has lots of brownish hair (Clint says it's already turning blond, much to my chagrin) and looks a lot like Emery did when he was tiny.  I apologize for the lack of pictures with Clint.  He's got some sort of cold and doesn't want to pass it on to Asher, so he's trying to get well before he handles him too much.

Emery is thrilled to have a baby brother.  When I called him to tell him the news he said, "What is it?"  I said, "You have a brother."  He responded, "Oh, thank you, Mom!  I love you!!!"
I can't get over the snugly cuteness!
He already loves his binky.

If I leave him on the couch, there's a really good chance that Saya will pick him up when I'm not looking.  It will be amazing if he survives to be one.
