Latest Pics of Aidan

Sorry it has been so long since the website has been updated. I don't know where all the time seems to go! :)

Aidan seems to finally be gaining weight so we are going in the right direction! Mike has gone back to work in Chicago and we miss him lots!! Grandma Meme was a saint last week and came and stayed with me while Mike was in Chicago. We couldn't have made it through the week without her!

We have had lots of family in town visiting this past week. Aidan got to meet his great aunt Jean and cousin Jonathan, his uncle Brian, his aunt Kelli, and his uncle Matt and girlfriend Danielle. It has been a busy week but it has been so much fun!

Here are some pictures of Aidan from the past couple of weeks. Enjoy!! We sure have! :)

Time flies...

We thought we would update you on what has been going on in the last week. We've been adjusting to life at home with Aidan. Boy has he changed how we spend our time! :)

One thing that has changed is the amount of time it takes to prepare when we go somewhere. I think someone told us to add 20 minutes of prep time for each child but since we are new to this its more like an hour.

He has been a very good baby, although mom and dad could use some more sleep.

Ranger, our yellow lab, has done really well accepting Aidan into the household. He is very curious about the new baby but he isn't aggressive or anything like that. I think he is starting to understand that he doesn't run the house anymore as the majority of the attention has shifted to Aidan. Fortunately for Ranger he is still our baby too and he gets plenty of attention from Mom and Dad.

We took newborn pictures today and we think they'll turn out really well. They should be posted on our photographer's website sometime Friday so we'll keep you updated with that information when it is available. There are some darling shots including one of Aidan wrapped in an American Flag laying in a giant baseball glove. The pictures were primarily of Aidan naked in the style of Anne Geddes and during the session there was an incident where Aidan pooped on Mike during a picture! :)

We are really enjoying our time together as a new family and love watching Aidan change from day to day!!
