Aidan's First Snow

During our trip to PA we got 10 inches of snow and took Aidan out to make his first snow angel.

A Visit with Santa

Santa came to visit everyone at Daycare last week. Aidan was the only one from the Infant room that smiled when he saw Santa....he knows who provides the gifts :-)

Happy Birthday Aidan!

Today our little guy is 6 months old! Where does the time go!?!

First Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving day with the Perna Family, enjoying good company and delicious food!
Aidan, too young to enjoy all of the yummy food, did have his first taste of mashed potatoes and of course wanted more. Cameron had made 2 paper leaves for each of us and we had to write on them what we were thankful for. Throughout dinner Cameron would randomly select a leaf and read what we were thankful for. Daddy wrote he was thankful for a healthy delivery of our little Aidan. I couldn't agree more....Aidan has brought so much love and laughter into our life I couldn't imagine life without him.

Starting solid foods.....first up - Veggies!

We started Aidan on veggies tonight, starting with Peas. He was very excited to when he saw the spoon coming his way,

but quickly found out Oatmeal was not being served this evening.

He surprised us and ate half of the container. Not bad for the first night.

Overall I don't think he was thrill but we'll try it again tomorrow.

Daycare Cooties

After a month in daycare Aidan was home sick with a stomach bug. We took a trip to the pediatrician to make sure it wasn't the flu. After a fever of 102, projectile vomiting (very scary to see) and diarrhea we are on the mend and starting to feel better. A day in Mommy and Daddy's bed snuggling with Mommy was just what the doctor ordered. I loved spending the day cuddling with my little guy but I'm so glad he's starting to feel better.

This is how I roll.....

So I was finally able to catch Aidan rolling over on video. He has been rolling over for a while now but seemed to know when I had the camera out to catch him! I could stand there with the camera and he's look at me like What do you want mom - then the minute I'd turn my back he'd roll away!

5 months old

Today Aidan turned 5 months old and he's constantly doing new things. He's rolling over every chance he gets and it starting to push up on his knees. Won't be long until the crawling begins. His newest discovery is his tongue! He loves to stick it out when he smiles!

Happy Halloween

I couldn't decide on what to dress Aidan as for Halloween so he had 2 costumes. For the daycare parade on Friday he was a giraffe and for Trick or Treat he was Kermit the Frog. Unfortunately the Kermit costume only lasted a few minutes due to the 90 degree temps. Aidan was not in the mood to sweat in the costume just to look cute for Mommy. At least he lasted long enough to get some cute pictures.

Downtown Disney

We took our first trip to Downtown Disney with Aidan last weekend to visit with Uncle Will, Aunt Kym and family. Aidan enjoyed looking around at all the different colors at Disney and enjoy the lights once the sun went down. . We can't wait until we are able to take him to the parks!

4 month Dr. Appt

Yesterday we went for our 4 month doctor visit with Dr. Colosimo. Aidan went through a big growth spurt in the last 2 months and is finally in the 60th and 70th percentiles for weight and height. He now weighs 15.10 lbs and is 25.5 inches long. Looks like he might not end up with his daddy's short legs after all. One thing is for sure....he has his father's big head. His head circumference is in the 94th percentile. We're so proud......

4 Months Old

I've toyed with numerous ways to keep everyone up to date on Aidan and decided to try a blog. We'll see how it goes. Today Aidan is 4 months old. It is amazing to see how much he has changed in such a short time. He's becoming quite the talker, especially when Daddy is trying to watch TV. His hands are his new fascination as he tried to shove them in his mouth. He's still losing his hair and Ray is still hoping it grows back in blonde. I'm betting it will still be brown but we'll have to wait and see. We have a week and a half to go until I return to work and Aidan starts daycare. I know it will be good for him and that he'll be well taken care of during the day but I'm still very sad to think I have to leave him soon. Until then I am going to enjoy every minute I have at home with him.
