Asher Holland Kartchner

Sarah and Talon had their sweet baby boy this morning at 7:01 am.  I slept through the text!  I was so mad to wake up to the text of "Hey were going to the hospital."  That was at 4:30, I text Talon at 7:15 and said, "Whats the status?" I got this picture in response. I admit I freaked out a bit, I ran into our room and screamed, "Sarah had the baby!"  I wish I had taken a picture of Josh's face!
Sarah and I had decided that if she went into labor while her mom was here that I wouldn't come to the hospital.  Spring came on Thursday, so we didn't end up going until this afternoon. 
 He was wide awake right before we got there!  He slept the whole time we were there.
Josh is beyond himself excited.  He's the proudest Grandpa I have ever seen!  The nurse asked if we were the grandparents and Sarah said yes.  You should have seen Josh beam.  I told him it's the grey in his beard that is giving us away!
 I took a ton of picture.s  He's sleeping in all of them, but isn't he cute?
 Oh, I love him!  It's amazing how you can love someone you've never met. It's that way with all babies!
 I love just looking at that sweet face. So fresh from heaven. I wonder what he's dreaming about?
Piper told me this morning that she called dibs on nibbling on him first!  Since they wouldn't let the kids in the hospital, I got to do that first.  He doesn't like to be nibbled though. He would scrunch up his face and stretch at me.
 Wow, who would have thought we would be here five years ago!  Five years ago I was so worried that we were going to lose Sarah because of all of the trials that were going on in her life.  And yet we've been blessed to watch her grow up and marry a great man and become a mom!
 Yawny face!  So, so, so cute!
 Little toes.
 They were trying to decide whose toes he had. I think we decided it was Talons.
 Awwww!  Cute little family!
I am beyond blessed today! This little guy is going to make me a grandma way before my time, but it's okay. I am so in love with him already. I am so lucky to have him and his beautiful mommy and his awesome dad in my life! I feel like my heart is just bursting today! So grateful for Gods hand in my life and the fingerprints he has left on it. Those that I can see and those that I can't. I have no doubt that Sarah was meant to come into my life and I am so grateful for Gods hand in that.
