Baby's Got a New Highchair

This was Aidan's first day in his new wooden highchair--just last week. In my effort to keep all large hunks of plastic out of our small house I was excited to receive this cute highchair for free from someone on the island! Woohoo! In the war against plastic I'm currently winning the battle I'm happy to say. How much longer will I be able to do this I wonder??

As you can see above--it takes him a while to warm up to new things--including eating. But we're happy to report that he's loving food now! So far he's eaten bananas, rice cereal, and sweet potatoes, apples, and blueberries. I'll post new pics of him eating soon. He definitely gets pretty messy--and that makes for some fun photos!

This Wagon's Made For Walkin'

Here is Aidan in action with his walker wagon. Before too long he'll be walking on his own! These pictures are from Feb 5th. The second picture looks like he's practicing his squats. Gotta stay in shape! I've got some more recent pics coming up, but wanted to make sure you all got to see him with his favorite toy!

Let's Play!

This video is from December 29th, but I thought it was a pretty cute interaction between little A and Ruby.  You won't see this happening anymore since the novelty of Aidan has worn off to Ruby. Ruby does her best to steer clear of him all together these days.

Seriously, this is the last family blog I start--promise!

Marie, 

Since you are the only one who really reads these things anyway I'll just direct this to you!  I shut down the other baby blog because we were paying for it and I was rarely posting.  So, I started this blog in hopes that I'll post pictures occasionally, but won't have to feel guilty if I don't actually follow through. :)  Anyway, I'll do my best to keep it as updated as possible.  If you subscribe to this blog's feed (the RSS) you'll be notified every time I make a new blog post. This will save you from having to check to see if I've updated recently!  I do hope I'm able to keep up.  It's really neat having a record of Aidan's growth and progress.  

Love you,

N
