Okay he's actually 8 months and 1 day, but our electricity was off much of the day yesterday due to the wonderful ice storm. Aiden hasn't had a Dr appointment so I'm not sure what his measurements are but I'm certain he's gained a few pounds!!! He is getting around a lot more than he was just a month ago, he's not crawling (in the traditional way) but he scoots while sitting up, squirms on his tummy, and of course loves walking while holding onto our hands. We made it back from Iowa Sunday evening and I've nicknamed Aiden "Our little Road Tripper". He did great during the 6 hour car ride. He slept most of the way up Friday evening, and then wanted to tell us all about his dreams once we checked into the hotel, he wasnt fussy at all just talking for about 2 hours (until 1:30 am) before falling asleep. Saturday, he enjoyed swimming in the pool, eating out, and doing some Christmas shopping, and finally attending Daddy's Christmas Party where he was a hit!!!
We've had a pretty laid back week with the weather being so cold and icy we have not gotten out of the house much, I'm hoping to take him to the library today. I think he's getting a little cabin fever as am I. One good thing about the weather is that Nathen didnt have to work yesterday or today so we are soaking up some time with him. Nathen turned 30 on Monday so the two days off were a nice Birthday present.
Enjoy the pics
Aiden gets some practice opening Christmas presents by opening Daddy's birthday gift, he didnt need any help at all!!
This picture captures that our Little Guy is on the move and pretty happy about it
"Mom why are taking my picture, cant you see I'm trying to eat here?!!!" Aiden continues to love eating, although we had a bit of a scare over the weekend when he choked, but he coughed everything up and wasnt scared by the event, but it sure did scare Mommy and Daddy. I think he liked our reaction or something because ever since then he'll do a fake choking thing and then smile at us after we pick him up (to start patting his back). He's an onery little guy!!
"Mom, this is a pretty cool toy!!"Aiden and I purchased a new printer Thursday and Aiden had fun playing with the box.
