He's a growing boy!!

As most of you know, Aiden turned 9 months a few days ago. I took him in for his well check today. It went terrific! He is 29.5" long..... in the 75th percentile. He is 18-10.5lbs..... about the 25th percentile. I was concerned he was too thin, but Dr. Rhodes looked at me and said "looks like he gets it honest." He has followed along the same arch, although his weight has dropped down since his last check-up. The doc said that is probably due to the fact that he is ALL over the place. He got the last of his hepatitis B shots, and the second of his flu shots. He did really great, only cried for a minute. Can't believe our baby is growing so fast!!!!

Happy Sunday!

Ryann went back to her mommy's today, but not after a wonderful week and a half!! We had tons of fun at the park and local play areas. We also had a super time at Disney Princess on Ice. Followed by a terrific Thanksgiving! We got into the Christmas spirit, we decorated our home for the holidays and we went to Prairie Lights' Airblown World!!

Aiden so LOVED having his big sister here - he followed her around like a lost puppy.... it was so cute!!! Ryann also loved it, she had her own real baby "doll". I don't know how many times I walked into find her "feeding" or "diapering" her baby.

We can't wait to have our baby girl back!!

Hope your all getting into the holiday spirit!!!

Also, I just got news today - Drew Andrews, (Adrian's nephew) is terribly sick. He is at the Children's hospital in Houston. Please keep him and his parents, (Carl and Aaryn) in your prayers.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Hope you've all enjoyed your day! We sure did. We went to Gamma and Papa's and had a wonderful meal. Aiden and Ryann, jumped right in and celebrated Thanksgiving the good old fashion way.... they ate ALL day!!

Then we came home and started getting ready for Christmas!!! Ryann had a great time decorating the tree. No doubt she will ask every day, from now till Christmas if it's Christmas yet. Aiden had a good time "helping" too. He just would sit and stare at the tree..... loves the singing frog too.

Again, hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving!!!

The princess is here!!

We picked up Ryann on Friday night. We are going to have her for till Sunday!!!! Aiden has already really enjoyed having his big sister here!! We took her to see Disney Princess on Ice Saturday. We all had a really great time!!! They showed a little bit of all the great princess stories.

Gamma came over and played with us today. The kids were so happy to get some quality time with their Grandma. She, Ryann and I went to Garden Ridge and got some things to get ready for Christmas. I can't believe it's already time for Thanksgiving.

Hope everyone has a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving!!!!!

#3 is on it's way!!

NO, not our third child!!!!
Aiden's third tooth is poking through. It's the top left one!!! Adam and I have thought he was working on getting another one for a while. This explains his fussiness, and his need to be with his mommy!!! I can't believe he is big enough to have three teeth - he is going to be 9mo NEXT week!!!

Hope you are all enjoying the lovely fall weather!

What a week!!!

OMG, am I glade this week is over! We were all so happy Adam come home. Aiden and I had a good time, but he missed his daddy terribly!! After a couple of days, when Aiden would cry he would call for Adam. He would also crawl around looking for him. He was SO happy to hear his voice on the phone, but even more so when he saw his face. Ryann was so excited to see her daddy too. Melony said she started asking to come see us on Monday. I picked her up early and we surprised Daddy.

Aiden started getting a runny nose on Tuesday, due to lovely allergies. With all the drainage, we experienced our first, (and second) vomit! I felt so sorry for my little baby. We've started some meds, he is already feeling much better. He also got his first busted lip. We were at Kay's and he wanted to try and walk from the couch to the coffee table without holding on to anything. He took about two steps, then down he went - face first in the coffee table. To my surprise he got over it pretty quick. He is going to be one tough kid!!

Ryann is growing and changing! She never ceases to amaze. She, Adam and Aiden are reading a book right now. Aiden keeps trying to turn the page and Ryann told him, "Aiden no, (you're) driving me CRAZY!!" - she is a nut! I can't believe how much she has changed, just in the past couple of months. She is so smart, and we all know how beautiful she is.....

Hope everyone has a SUPER week!!!

Congrats Mr. & Mrs. Ensey!!!

Congrats Jenny and Emrick. You had a beautiful wedding and a DREAMY reception! We had a great time while in College Station. Aiden got to play with his best friend; Chandler! Plus mommy got to visit and be part of Jenny's special day.

Adam just left for a work related trip. He'll be gone till Friday. What will Aiden and I do to fill our days?? Ha! We've already got two weeks full of excitement planned!

Hope everyone is fantastic! Have a great week!!

Happy Birthday Aunt Kim!!!

Happy birthday to the BEST Aunt, (and sister)!!! We LOVE you, and hope you have a WONDERFUL day!!

Balancing Act...

Aiden has started a new "trick" this morning. He pulls himself up and stands holding onto the couch, coffee table, etc... then he lets go and stands alone for a few seconds!!!! He doesn't fall, when he has had enough of being a big boy, he then reaches back and holds on till he is ready to try again.

Aiden also has learned to climb. The other day Adam and I watched as he climbed up our built in bookshelves. He had his hands on the second shelf (about 3ft off the ground) and his knees on the first!! I can already tell we will soon have our hands full.... he is ALL boy!!!
