Cutie Pie!

Here lately, everyone who meets Aiden comments on how long his eyelashes are. We knew they were long, but looking at some of his pictures, we were amazed at how long they really are. They touch his eyebrows! What a cutie!

Should I Be Sneaky?

As you can see in the first picture, Aiden seems to be developing a sneaky side....I wonder where he gets that from?!?! But it looks like he is also weighing the possible consequences of how Mommy might react if he actually goes through with it. I think we're in for it...he's going to be a hand full!!!! On a side note, surprisingly Aiden loved wearing his hat! He looked so cute !

Playtime Fun!

Aiden has just recently grown just tall enough to be able to jump in his bouncer! He loves playing with the toys on board and often takes some of his links or chewy zebra with him for even more fun. It's so funny to watch him jump up and down...he is so proud of himself. Aiden wants to sit up all the time now so that he can see everything that is going on around him. He has his own little support chair that he likes to sit in an play with his favorite toys. He has a good time chewing and dropping his toys. We're working on picking them back up! Aiden will look at his dropped toys beside his chair, but still prefers Marko or me to hand them to him. I'm sure that will last for awhile!

I Love Reading!

Aiden has already developed a love of books! He enjoys being read to and reading (ok....looking at the pictures) on his own. His favorite book right now is Squishy Turtle and Friends. He loves all of the bright, shiny sea creatures, the way the cover makes a "crinkle" noise, and apparently, the way it tastes! He is drawn to anything in print and will get quite upset if he cannot look at the reading material with you (as we found out this morning with the phone book). He likes to feel everything with his hands (and sometimes his mouth) and wants to be the one to turn the pages. Aiden's well on his way to being a great reader!
