Aiden has a new cousin!!!

Aiden has a new cousin, Elizabeth Katherine born to my big sis Cammie and her husband Bill. Elizabeth arrived 3 weeks early September 28th and weighed 7 lbs 11 oz! My mom was able to make it out to San Fransisco hospital minutes (20 to be exact) before the delivery. Aiden and I are flying out this Saturday to meet Elizabeth. We are so excited, Nathen unfortunately could not get off work so I'll be flying alone with a 6 month old!!!! Everyone I've talked to who has flown with infants have said the same thing "he'll be fine if you just feed him" sounds easy enough but we'll see. I'll definately make a post after our return with an update and of course pictures!:)
Aiden seems to be giving into baby peer pressure here of late. It's actually pretty funny, a few weeks ago we visited our friends Meltem, Travis and Taila (who is 2 weeks older than Aiden), and Taila was sucking her thumb, the next day Aiden started to suck his thumb he never did so before, and just today our neighbors Jenny and James (3 weeks younger than Aiden) stopped by and James was sucking on his lower lip, and before the end of their visit Aiden started to do the same thing!! Today Aiden and James seemed to be enjoying their conversations with each other. Babies truely are amazing---Jenny and I couldn't help but wonder if the two could understand each other using their own secret language!!
We took Aiden to church for the first time to watch my dad's baptism, and Aiden did wonderful. He just looked around and smiled at people the entire time, he didnt cry once!
Aiden enjoys some cuddle time with Granddad after church. Aiden showed Granddad how special he is by touching his face, this is something that Aiden does to those he loves and cares for (or at least thats what it seems) he touches my face when nursing and Daddy's face after he comes home from work.
"How about them 'Cats?" Well they got beat by KU this weekend--I didnt rub it in too bad though. Aiden is still all smiles in his K-State duds--he sported his KU duds today and received several compliments on them at the library and coffeeshop but of course I forgot to take pictures:(
