Storm damage and easter bunnies

Here are pics of our friendly easter bunnies along with some damage to a pecan tree. I wish I could share how the big E got this down, but you'd wet yourself laughing so hard.

Walmart

I am seriously going to give up Walmart! I think I will be able to find everything I need elsewhere! Where do all of the people come from after 5/6 p.m. at night????? I mean where are they during the day? The place was packed with crazy and rude people with some exceptions (you know us;) Aiden was happy and smiled at basically everyone. I finally had to tell him that these people were strangers and he needed to fall asleep:-)

Then Erik has an encounter with a man in a beamer-money does not mean manners! Skinny dudes just can't hold their own with big guys! So, of course, skinny, beamer guy drags tail and goes away and I chastise Erik reminding him he has Aiden to think about.

Great dinner + sucky night + movie = good laughs

BOO! I see you:)

Aiden is becoming quite a funny little boy.

He's so sweet!


I LOVE this expression!

His attention getter!

Bubble, bubble, bubble

Here are some pictures I'm sharing because I cannot sleep (CRCT worries). This is his first bubble bath and he LOVES it!



I know you thought I was going to blog about Jimmy Buffet-even though he's coming to town this month and I can't go:(


Oh, I also won my first game in monopoly-thanks to my nephew and Aaron!!!!! Here's what I racked up:
Aiden really wanted to play!

Scooting!

Here he is...moving! In fact, he just loves anything electric! I miss him sitting still!

Finally moving

Aiden has been content to sit or pull up. Moving has not been high on his agenda and I am very content with this! I already understand that once he begins to move, there's no keeping him in one place. It's difficult to not compare other babies his age with him, especially when others ask and I look at my other 2 children's growth. Anyway...I adore him! He is wonderful!



Inching wherever he wants to go!


Loving the t.v. equipment! BTW...the maid had the week off...look at that dust!

A picture with his mouth closed.

Newly adopted friend

We have a new member of our house who needs diapers just as much as Aiden! He has more spunk than all of us put together. He also seems to have eye issues... I think I have walked him at least 100 times-he's such a baby!

This reminds me a little of the sistine chapel.


Aiden enjoys watching Beau and Duke play.

Enjoyable times!

Aiden is so easy going about most things-except bath time. Other than that, keep him fed and in a clean diaper and he's fine.

Really...it's going by too fast

8 Months old today!
He is sitting and "talking" to us, but he won't say mama---only dada. He's eating the food he picks up with his chubby fingers. I love to watch him do that. Tonight, he wouldn't drink out of my straw, but wanted to so badly! He's moving around the living room without crawling and pintching everything even us and boy does it hurt. He still loves his baths (and showers). I'm looking forward to his first bubble bath.

In the mornings, he has to watch Aleka and learn how to read. He's delighted to see the hand prints from the dvd and hear the music and Aleka. I wish every baby/toddler/child could have this program!

He's still nursing, but beginning to wean himself. I hope to make it one more month before that happens. I'll really miss my time with him right before bed and early in the morning!

Suction anyone

That's exactly what Aiden wanted as he learned how to drink from a straw. He was so funny trying to get the water! Then, he didn't want to stop.

New fun for Aiden

Since we had to put Aiden's inside swing away, I strongly encouraged Daddy to buy an outside swing. This one is good up to 55lbs. So he has a little over 30 lbs. before it has to be retired.


Such a serious look! He was apprehensive about the swing at first. Then, Daddy decided to really make him go!

Fire!

While Erik's younger brother visited, Ali and Erik built a small fire pit. Aaron, Carl, and Ali roasted hot dogs and marshmallows last night. They have had so much fun in the neighbor's overgrown field, oops, I mean yard. I get a little nervous not being able to see them, but they always seem to find their way back ;P

Bath time

As most of you know, the little one looks forward to his bath time almost as much as he looks forward to his meals. I get so tickled when he splashes and he gets startled by the way it gets on his face! He's so precious. Dear family here's your Aiden fix for the week!

He wouldn't close his mouth!

More snow pics

Here are some better pictures of our blizzard in GA.

Wonderful weekend

We had a rainy and snowy weekend which finished up nicely by the wonderful snow day on Monday. Don't you love these southern states where everything stops when it snows!
