Everett and Asher

We have had a lot of questions about how Everett and Asher compare to one another in size.  When Everett was born he was 9lbs. 12 oz. and 22.5in and he was born at 39 weeks.  Asher weighed in at 8lbs. 11oz. and 20.75in long and he was born at 38 weeks. Here are some picture comparisons too:

Although these pictures don't quite show it, Asher has some great hair! It's actually much darker and thicker than E's.  Everett was for sure a bigger bubs but there are a lot of similarities between the two!  It's so fun to already watch these two together.  Everett is still deciding what the thinks of little brother, but I feel confident that E will continue to grow in his big brother role.

Another common question we have had is, "What did Everett do while we were at the hospital?"  Well, Everett had a BLAST with Uncle James and Aunt Jennifer!  My brother and sister-in-law live five minutes away and were available at a moments notice to help us with E.  Jen spent the night at our house and Everett, James, and Jen spent the weekend together playing hard.  Here are some pics of their time together:

I love this picture.  E loved hanging out at James and Jen's house.

A big highlight for Everett was going to Fritz's, the restaurant where trains bring your food to your table.  E's love for trains is ever growing. 

I love the grocery cart picture!

James and Jen let Everett pick out a toy to give to Asher.  He picked a soft Snoopy.  This pic was taken after Everett gave Snoopy to baby brother.  So Sweet! 

James and Jen did such an awesome job of taking care of E! Everett had so much fun that he keeps asking where James and Jen are! We were so grateful that Everett was well looked after while we were at the hospital.
