just stuff....

this is one of the beanies, car!

here is the other one. i am not sure about the brim. if you dont like it i can do a different one, or a different color. let me know and i wont be hurt if want a different one, they dont take very long to do.

here he is in his big boy chair!!! i love that boy!

he wants to crawl sooo bad!

look at that face!!! oh i could just kiss it all day! sometimes i do!

Aiden is 6 months old!!!! holy crap, how did that happen??? he is such a big boy now! these are some things he is doing now (so i dont forget)
-eating 2nd foods and loving them and trying to eat anything else he can gets his little grabby fingers on!
-he is sitting in a booster chair (like the girls sit in) because he totally twisted his way out of the bumbo chair!
-still spitting up a lot! that is his only flaw.... i guess he has to have one, right?
-is wearing 6-12 month clothes
-does not use a binky!!! sometimes he will suck on his fingers but only when he goes to sleep
-doesnt have to nurse to go to sleep!!!! i love it! he his so easy going! he will just lay down and go to sleep if i dont have time to nurse him (which is a lot!). makes it easy for date nights!
-drinking from a sippy cup
-sitting up
-spins in circles on his tummy like nobody's business
-is getting very close to crawling (gets up on his hands and knees and rocks back and forth) he is trying SOOO hard! he just wants to get up and go with his sisters!
-finally started sleeping through the night about 2 weeks ago!!! YAY!!! he takes 2 long naps during the day (when we are home) and then wants to be in bed at least by 7! and then he usually sleeps until 7 with the occasional 5am wakeup!
-he is THE happiest baby! as long as he isnt hungry or tired he will just sit anywhere and laugh and smile at anything and anyone! he loves to be talked to and LOVES it when his sisters "bug" him (like sit on him or roll around on the floor with him, ya know..)
-is so sweet and loves to cuddle and of course be held.
-is ocassionally going pee and poop on the toilet!!! i am kind of trying this different kind of potty training. he is actually doing really good!
-LOVES his mommy!! what can i say?!? if i walk out of the room he usually lets me know that he is not ok with it!
-LOVES the hot tub! and swimming... it a good thing cause we are going to live in the pool this summer!

we love our "aiden boy"!!!

just a little wierd

this is the kind of stuff rylee does...........




and this is the kind of stuff addy does. she is soooo weird!

the big 5!

we had our 5 yr anniversary on Feb. 27!!! i cant believe it has already been 5 years! mike sent me flowers, which was a really fun surprise, and he tried surprising me with a massage at Massage Envy, but it didnt work out as planned. he told me that i was going to get a call at 3:30 and to make sure that answered the phone. so my mom shows up to watch the kids and i dont get a call. it was after 4:00 when i finally got a hold of mike to find out what was going on. Massage Envy was supposed to call at 3:30 and tell me that i had an appt. at 4:00. so anyways, it got all worked out and i got my massage!!:) i have to give him props for trying though! when i got home we sent the girls with my mom for a sleepover and dropped aiden off at a friends house and went to Noras for dinner. it was soooo yummy! we really wanted to go stay somewhere, but it just didnt work out. we'll go soon to make up for it though!
anyways, thanks for the great 5 years, mike!! love you!
