We love our little Pashy Pie. His chubby little self is just so enjoyable--to touch, to hold, to pinch, and to simply feast your eyes upon. A few weeks ago I was holding Asher, when a lady I know drove up. As she saw him, she exclaimed, "He is just scrumptious!"
I couldn't agree more. I could spend hours gently pinching his soft skin between my fingers and stroking his enormous thighs. And he is so easily pacified. Usually a big smile and a little baby talk is all it takes to get him to stop crying. His smile is so wide, it looks as if he's trying to catch flies with his mouth! And he is as sweet as he is big! He currently wears 12-18 month clothes, although I put him in a 24 month onesie yesterday and it fit quite well. I have actually been having troubles with my back from hefting him around, but he's worth it.
He just started sitting on his own a few days before his 5 month mark. What started out as a slump using his chubby belly and thighs kind of like a kick-stand turned into real sitting after a few days. He loves to squeal and laugh, and his laugh is almost always accompanied by a funny intake of breath that squeals. He's also very alert--he loves to watch everyone and everything around him.
Our current nicknames include:

Behold the scrumptious-ness for yourselves:
He is a chubby little thing! I love it! And he is so adorable... Glad to see pictures of him!
