Aiden’s first food: Avocado

February 7th, 2010

Aiden has been eating solids for a few weeks now so we thought it was time to share a photo gallery from his first encounter with adult food. As you can see, he enjoys the green mushy avocado puree Young made up for him.

So far, he’s had carrots, green beans, prunes, bananas, chicken, oatmeal, sweet peas, sweet potatoes, avocado, squash and brown rice. He didn’t really care for the squash, but everything else has been thumbs up. We suspect he’s a texture eater like his dad, but hopefully he’ll grow out of it.

I pulled out the trains a few weeks back for Christmas, but didn’t get them running until last weekend. Aiden didn’t care; he’s enjoying them all the same.

Christmas Joy

December 26th, 2009

Aiden really enjoyed Christmas this year, as the photos below demonstrate. And while we sorely miss our families (since we stayed in Seattle), it was great to spend Aiden’s first Christmas without hectic holiday travel.

Today we were thankful for the fact that Aiden is usually a good-natured (though watch out if he misses a nap!) and so quick to smile these days - here is some video of him enjoying rolling the ball back and forth with dad. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Tante Lydia

Yeah... Tante Lydia came to see me!Okay, so she’s not really related to us, but Lydia is a dear friend from our Madison/IV days. She was eager to meet Aiden in person, and got to meet him earlier in November. Here are some pics of them together.

 

 

 

Monday morning Aiden

Hello everyone. Here are some photos of all my cuteness, partly because they know these photos will make your day, partly to prove they’re still posting (even though they’re getting very little sleep). Hope you enjoy!

2 for 1 on 3

This past Sunday, Aiden accomplished 2 feats in 1 day: On his 3-month birthday, he rolled over for the first time and he laughed, somewhat uncontrollably. Unfortunately for Young and me, we both missed the other feat. I had just looked over a half-second too late to miss his roll and Young was downstairs while I was with Aiden when he laughed. No biggie since we know he’ll do them both again. It was amazing. We don’t have any video to prove it, but here’s other footage of Aiden making interesting noises during tummy time. We’ll let you decipher his baby talk!
