Celebrations


















This week was full of celebrations. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday were perfectly beautiful sunshiney days, so Mommy and Aidan celebrated by going to the park with Jack (and his Mommy, Jeanie), and Aidan's new friends (twins) Nate and Dillon (and their Mommy, Jetaun). The babies played with bowls of water and plastic toys on big sheets under a shady tree, shared cheerios, and were all thrilled to be outside (the mommies were too!)!

Tuesday was Daddy's birthday, and we relaxed and had a lazy day. In the morning Daddy went into work late and Mommy made him spicy homefries for breakfast (with Canadian bacon and apple cider), and we almost had to evacuate the house because of the peppery air! Daddy came home early and we all went to the park and played with water and toys in bowls again. We ran into a bunch of Aidan's friends along the way (Johnny, Jake & Yuxin) who were also enjoying the beautiful weather.

Wednesday, Aidan turned 10 months old! He has officially moved onto size 4 diapers, and 18-24month (2T) clothes. What a big boy!

Sunday was Mommy's first Mother's Day! It is amazing that this time one year ago, Aidan was only a twinkle in our eyes and a bump on Mommy's tummy! Mommy and Daddy and Aidan had breakfast together at Angela's Cafe (Mommy had waffles and ice cream). After finishing packing, Mommy and Aidan trained to Grandma and Grandpa Ruane's house, where we will be staying this week while Daddy is at a workshop in Georgia. (There are only a couple of more of these, and we are all looking forward to the end of them!) Mommy and Aidan had a delicious dinner with Grandma and Grandpa and Chris and Jim, and Aidan went to sleep and let Mommy enjoy their company until way after her usual bedtime of 9:00PM! It was a lot of fun.
