Our bath time routine had to be modified while on vacation at Grandmas house. We thought a good solution to a tub would be a bowl in the sink. It seemed to work for Aiden!
Cute snuggling pictures...
In November 2010, Aiden came down with a really high fever. As I was taking his temperature the numbers were climbing so fast, 99, 102, 103.5... and then we were in the car on the way to the emergency room. They took his temperature there and it was 106! Wow! They ran some tests and found that his white cell count was extremely high (and some other things that I don't remember now) and decided to admit him to the hospital. For the next three days Aiden and I spent our days and nights in a hospital bed with Aiden connected by wires to machines, having his temperature and vitals taken every hour, and fighting to keep cold rags on his very hot body. They never could figure out what was wrong with him! Even after 3 days of testing. It was a pretty scary experience, but one that I will always treasure. The three days of being confined to a 4x8 bed bonded us like nothing else probably could. Even though it was not the best of circumstance, it is one of my best memories of Aiden!
Aiden was too young for a costume and trick-or-treating, so instead we had fun at the pumpkin patch and the Fall Festival at Aiden's school. And he looked mighty cute in his festive onesie!
Grandma came to visit for a few weeks to celebrate Halloween with us. We love to see her, but we also love that she takes so many pictures!
Looking back on these pictures now it is amazing how much Aiden has grown! He was still my little baby back in October....
It has been months since I have posted anything and SO much has happened! Over the next few weeks I am going to work to get caught up, so look out for some cute new posts!

We joke that Aiden is going to play soccer when he grows up because he is such a kicker. His legs are always moving! I think this video is cute because it looks like he is trying to dance to the music - his little legs are movin' and groovin'!
Aiden got his first tooth on 7/23! We were so excited! And relieved to finally understand why he had been so fussy! The week prior to the tooth breaking through was difficult because he was crying so much and we didn't know how to help him. I took him to the doctor thinking he had an ear infection, but the doctor said that he was fine. She couldn't see anything wrong with him. We tried to treat him with Tylenol, but I didn't want to give him too much because I wasn't sure if he was actually in pain or just cranky. I am so glad we have the answer and know the signs for next time! Aiden was trying to tell us what was wrong, we just didn't understand. But now we do and we will be much better listeners next time!
