We are loving this beautiful weather and hoping that it will last! We were able to actually take a walk in the afternoon without boiling! Sebastian was especially excited. And we got to turn Aidan around in the Baby Bjorn! He likes being able to see out much better. We are really looking forward to the fall, lots of pretty weather and fall festivals and football games! It's so much fun with Aidan, everything is a new adventure!





The boys! Nothing like a little Daddy & Son time! Weekends are a fun time with Daddy home! Aidan's little face always lights up when Adam comes home!













I put this in here because eating pictures are too cute! I'm sure I won't think so when he's older and we need a hose to clean him off! But for now, pretty cute!











This is the first time he's really been interested in watching his ball! He watched it roll around and pushed it himself. I think he proceeded to try and eat it after I took this picture! I thought it was sweet the way he was concentrating on it!

Happy Birthday!

Well, yesterday was Aidan's 6 month birthday! It's so hard to believe that it's been half a year! We had a pretty low key day, just played and went for a walk and the normal eating and sleeping!

I did have one special thing to share. We had one of those heart melting moments last night! It's the kind of moment that you just feel like your heart is going to explode from all the love. I had just finished nursing him before bedtime and was holding him. I leaned down to give him eskimo kisses. When I did, he put his sweet little hand on the side of my face and started to giggle. The more I did it, the more he giggled and got to laughing and squealing! I know it sounds like a small thing, but him holding my face and just the closeness was amazing! I couldn't help but think of Mary, "But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart." Not that I think I'm like Mary, but I think every parent has that special place in their heart for just that kind of memory. That's something precious that I can pull out whenever I want! What a blessing!

Well, we have 2 exciting things to share! The first is that this morning I felt his first tooth! He was chomping away on my finger as usual (my clean finger, I promise!) and I felt a little something! He would never let me look at it though. He just kept sticking his tongue out! But I was pretty excited to feel that tiny little bit of tooth!

The other thing is that we finally trimmed his old man comb-over, aka the long curl in the front! I honestly thought it would fall out like the rest of his hair, but it never did! So here are your before and after pictures! Enjoy! And I'll throw in a
couple of other pictures just for fun!


Sorry this one is so blurry! He was bobbling around a lot and I had a hard time getting a good one!













Here I am all dressed up like a big boy! You can't see the shoes, but the whole outfit was pretty cute!












Here I am with my big brother! (We really do keep Sebastian from licking his face all the time, I promise!) Aidan really does enjoy puppy kisses from Sebastian! Really, he cracks up just looking at him, it's pretty sweet!











And this one was just cute!

Here I am sleeping with my two favorite fingers in my mouth! I rarely sleep without them. And I usually have my other arm thrown across me to keep them in place!

Here I am in my chair! I'm falling over a bit but getting the hang of it. I love to sit in my chair except when I'm sleepy. Then I'm just not having it!


Here I am dancing with Mom! I love to do the cha cha! I squeal and laugh and think it's the most fun!

Sweet Boy

We are coming off the weekend which always leaves Aidan pretty tired. He was so precious this weekend! He has started really snuggling into you when you hold him. He did this a lot when he was a newborn and hasn't done it in awhile. He just lays his little head so sweetly against your chest or shoulder. It has to be one of the best feelings in the world! Of course he only does it when he's sleepy. The rest of the time he is busy checking everything out! It is so neat to see him learning all about the world around him. Everything is so exciting! I hear him waking up from his nap so that will be all for now. But we'll write more later!
