Tour & first birthday present!

Like I said in my last post, we removed the bed and rearranged the furniture in Asher’s room to give him more playing space.  We’re looking to add a pull-out couch to our family room for guests, but for right now there is no room in the Atkinson Inn.  :) 

I still need to take down and re-hang all of the artwork on the walls and the initials that were hanging over Asher’s crib, so please ignore those as you take a tour of Asher’s new digs…

“Hello!  Welcome!  Playing with the door is my favorite thing to do these days!”

Giving a “high five” but a little guarded with the smiles.

We left everything tucked in this corner to try to leave the rest of the room wide open.

Now that we have almost the whole wall next to Asher’s crib available we’re looking to add a few pieces like maybe one of these??

 American Plastic Toys 38 Piece Deluxe Workbench

 KidKraft Deluxe Lets Cook Play Kitchen

To be honest I don’t know if you buy little boys a play kitchen?!  I’m not trying to sound sexist… I’m just not sure.  He LOVED the one that his cousins had, but we might go a little more manly with the work bench.  :)

I also think one of these might be pretty cute?!

Hybrid My First Anywhere Chair

One of these might make a good first birthday presents, but we’ll see…  Speaking of presents, Asher got his first birthday present in the mail today!  A whole month early!

When Asher was born my parents and Chris and I decided to bank Asher’s cord blood.  So CBR (the cord blood registry) sent Asher a book for his birthday… appropriately named:

Any book is a hit with Asher, but this book has the flaps you can lift so he was especially loving it!

Chris likes to tease me that I drag out birthdays into “Birthday Weekends” or “Birthday Weeks”… but now that Asher has received his first birthday gift we might need to start calling it the Birthday MONTH especially since tomorrow he is officially one month away!  :)  Yippee!  Check back tomorrow for his 11 month post!
