He's my brother













So I finally spent some time today looking at baby pictures of Asher and Sayer. I have come to the conclusion that they look very different from each other, they each definitely have their own distinct look. I am not usually very good at saying what features go to what family, but I'll do my best. Asher is more Olson. That's what everybody says when they see him, that he looks just like his daddy. He has the Olson eyes, more almond shaped, and the Olson cheeks. I think that Sayer is more Busath. His eyes are bigger and rounder, and I think that he has my dad's pointy chin. Whenever I look at Sayer, I see my baby pictures in my head. I do think that Asher and Sayer both have the same nose, and they do have a similar profile. When Asher's eyes are open big in his baby pictures, I think they look more alike. They will probably look more and more alike as Sayer gets older. But really, what do I know?!

I will let you decide though, what do you all think? (Asher is on the left, Sayer on the right)

Conference Weekend

Andy snuggling with Ally and Asher

This is a little late, but I had to document our conference weekend. We spent pretty much the whole weekend going back and forth, from Provo to Sandy, where Nate's brother Andy and his wife live. We had so much fun hanging out with them, and Kacey was so gracious to host us for 3 days in a row!!

I really enjoyed conference, at least the talks that I got to hear. I loved Elder Ballard's talk, for obvious reasons, of course. We often hear talks about mothers, but I thought this was kind of a different approach than what we normally hear. It actually came on at the funniest time too. Us wives were giving our husbands a hard time about the way they help out with the kids. Don't get me wrong, they all do a great job and are so helpful, but sometimes they don't do it exactly the way we would like them to, or in the timely manner that we would like them to. Just as we were finishing up our fun conversation, Elder Ballard gets up and starts talking about how wonderful mothers are and how husbands need to be more aware of the needs of their wives, and all that good stuff. It was perfect timing!

We forgot Asher's jammies the first night we were up there, so he got to wear some of his cousin Ally's... aren't they cute?! Purple is a good color on him!
Asher enjoying the swing set in the Olson's backyard. He could play for days at that house, and probably into all hours of the night, if we let him.
Andy, Duffy, Nate, MacKay, Bart

This picture is from the following week, fast Sunday. Duffy and Tessa came into town to visit friends and family, and Heidi was in town to see the new babe and to visit, so we all got together for a break the fast dinner, again, at Andy and Kacey's. I was up stairs feeding Sayer, and when I came down, this was what I saw, all the Olson brothers sitting together talking, I thought it was such a cool picture, and a rare occasion for them all to be together.

Brothers...

Asher has been loving his new baby brother. Sayer has been camped out on this chair due to the bili-blanket cord, and yesterday, Asher wanted to sit up there with him. It was very sweet. He kept wanting to cuddle with him. He still tends to get a little too rough with him, so I am sad to say that Asher ended up in a time out shortly after these pictures were taken. But he still enjoyed his "brother" time.


So I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but I swear I left for the hospital on Sunday night, with a "little" boy, and when I came home, he is all of the sudden enormous. Not only does he weigh a ton and look so much bigger, he looks so much OLDER. He is a "big" boy!
Crazy little dude!
Sportin' his new pink and purple binky!!
