Celebrating!

With mini cheesecakes.

a man who we love dearly.

Lots of outdoor time in water.

Even the mama wet a line.

We caught crayfish.

Asher braved the pinchers to hold one.

Caught a few fish, Asher insisted on chasing it out of the bucket we were viewing it in to hold it. Asher caught his first fish- a beautiful pumpkin seed.

The boys hung out in a great sycamore.

and gave there papa lots of love.

Day finished with beers, deep fry and more cheesecake. Another year well spent.

Some shots courtesy of Daniel of River while we were still in the hospital.

All is well, River had a bit of jaundice, but being the kick ass boy he is gained 4 oz in 24 hours and had levels of billirubin decrease from 12.6 to 10.4. Tomorrow will be our first dr. free day!

He is a snuggler and sleeping great at night. And quite the nurser. His rooting instinct is phenomenal.

More pics to come soon.
