Aiden is 14 months old!!!

Aiden is 14 months as of yesterday. We had quite the busy day yesterday. We went on a PAT (Parents As Teachers)field trip to a local buffalo farm. Aiden absolutely loved it. He was not afraid at all of the big hairy animals, and got very close to them (it made me a bit nervous, but he was having fun so I just made sure he was safe). I was also pretty amazed that he did not try to eat the pellets that the owner gave to us to feed to the buffalo. He threw each one out to the buffalo. We enjoyed hanging out with all the other children and their parents as well. We were not in the car 5 minutes before Aiden fell asleep and he continued to sleep for 3 hours!! After his nap his buddy James stopped by with his mommy Jenny and they enjoyed a dip in our baby pool we just got last weekend. Aiden loves the water, but everytime we go to the public baby pool he spends most of the time peering through the fence watching all the big kids in the big pool, so having a pool in our shaded back yard seems to be more fun for him. He is continuing to gain more confidence walking, and is slowly venturing away from holding our hands, and sometimes even running without us! We found nanny to provide care for Aiden which is a relief, Aiden loved her and would not let her leave without several hugs. Her first day is tomorrow so hopefully it will go well, she seems to have similar interests as I and same philosophy regarding children so I'm confident that this will be an easy change for Aiden. Well that is about all the updates I have for now, until next time take care:)

It's a boy!!!!

We had a sonogram done on Thursday and we are having another boy!!! Our boys do not seem to be very modest while in the womb, I saw it was a boy before the sono tech did, and Nathen saw it with Aiden before the sono tech did....so it's a good thing we wanted to know the gender before they were born:) We are very excited, and are trying to prepare Aiden, as much as you can for a 13.5 month old. He has really started being very gentle with his stuffed animals in the last 2 months, giving them hugs, and handing them to us to give hugs to, so we are hopeful he'll be gentle to the new little man. Unfortunately our scanner is not working so I'm unable to scan a picture of the sonogram, I'll do so once it starts working again. This little boy seems to be a bit more active in the womb than Aiden was. We can already see him move across my tummy...something Little Aiden never did. I'm thinking this little guy will weigh more than 6 lbs 5 oz he's already 15 oz!!! Aiden was 11 oz at the time of the sonogram. Well Aiden has been very patient with me while posting this and is ready for mommy to play with him so gotta go.
