More room!!!

Yippy!!! Adam and I have been on the hunt for a place with more room. We found it this past weekend!!! We have LONG since out grown this apartment! Now the kids will each have there own room. I know Ryann will be happy. Aiden likes to take things off her desk and she isn't too crazy that he does that! Our lease ends here the end of March, but we can move into the new place the end of Feb. So were happy to have a FULL month to move. Maybe we can get some color on the walls before we move all our stuff!! Just wanted to share our exciting news!!

Hope your all doing good!!

Getting a move on!

WOW!!

Aiden and I are sitting on the floor playing, having a good time. When he stands up and just takes off walking! He walked about 3 feet!! It was all on his own, no "come to mommy". He is so amazing! He still prefers to crawl, but the walking thing is coming along very well! I think it'll only be a couple of weeks and he'll be done w/ the whole crawling thing.... (kinda hope I'm wrong, w/ him crawling I can pretend he's still a baby!
:(

Hope you all have an amazing weekend!!!

(Can you believe he'll be 11mo tomorrow?!)

He's gonna be a talker....




















I caught Aiden 'talking' on the phone, "Haaiiii dada!" It was so funny, he holds the phone more to the back of his neck than to his ear. I think it's so amazing how kids pick up on the things we do.

It hasn't been long since my last post, so not much has changed. Aiden did take 5 steps Monday night.... he had to show his Aunt Kim how big he is getting!!

Growing Boy!

My, my how time seems to fly! Aiden is growing and changing so fast! He now has 5 teeth!! He has started to refuse his veggies, something this kid has NEVER done. So we just sneak them in with his other foods. He is starting to get some dairy. He LOVES cottage cheese, which kinda grosses his daddy out! He is standing better and better by himself. He took 4 steps last night, but he still prefers to crawl. He hasn't said any new words lately, but he seems to have a sound that means he wants his cup, or he wants to nurse.... kinda sounds like di,di.... he might be trying to say drink?! Aiden is going to be one on the 21st of next month. I still can't believe how fast it's gone by!!! We have started planning his party, I think it'll be a blast!!

Hope your all doing good. If you wanna see pictures of the big boy standing all by himself check out our family photo gallery!!

Back to "normal"

Yeah, if there is such a thing! Aiden is FINALLY over the stomach bug that had him down since last Thursday. I felt so sorry for my baby. He threw up SO much!! We took him to the doctor and they gave us a prescription. He seems to back to 100%!!!! (we almost went a whole year w/ out getting sick)

Ryann went back to her mommy's yesterday. It was so hard to let her go, but she missed them terribly! We all loved having her around for so long. Aiden especially! He followed her all over! Sometimes she was the only thing that could make him stop crying.

So now that Daddy is back at work, Sissy is gone for now and Aiden isn't sick anymore; life returns back to "normal"!

Back to work!

Poor Daddy, he returned to work today after almost 2 weeks off! The kids and I aren't real sure what to do with out him. Aiden and Ryann LOVED Daddy being home all that time. I got pretty spoiled having him home too.

Aiden hasn't really persued the walking thing much. He'll only take a step when he is certain he isn't going to fall. He has cut two more teeth bringing the grand total to 4. You can already see two more pushing on his gums, but it could be months before they come in if they are anything like the two he just got. We have discovered he is quite a dare devil, after he "climbed" out of his high chair. He is okay, just looked a little banged up for a couple of days.

Ryann is the same sweet little angel! She amazes us almost daily. We heard her say y'all for the first time the other day, it was funny! She has really enjoyed being here the past week and a half, it's going to be very hard to let her go back to her mommy's.
