12 months

Okay, so Aidan's birthday was like over 2 weeks ago now, but with the move, and no internet, and having just returned from a 5 day trip to Pennsylvania, I am just now getting around to writing this little update.

Aidan is growing up so fast and learning lots of new things. He understands most of what I tell him, but he still does not say a whole lot. He has learned to sign "all done" and "more", although sometimes he gets them confused.

Aidan loves to copy everything we do and is still super fascinated with phones. He is always putting random objects up to his ear and saying "hi".  He likes to blow on his food when it is hot, he will stick out his tongue if you ask him where his tongue is, he loves dogs, and he is learning to climb stairs pretty well. Aidan is adjusting to his new house and really loves to walk around everywhere and explore.

At his 1 year checkup he weighed 20 lbs. 12 ounces (23rd percentile) and was 30. 5 inches long ( 75th percentile). He is still our growing little boy.

Back Again

It has been a really long time since writing on here and much has happened. We bought a house, moved, and Aidan had his 1st birthday. While I am still waiting to upload some pictures I thought I would at least post a few from a couple weeks before our move.

We had a lovely picnic supper at a park with some friends a few weeks back.


Aidan's first time on a slide. He loved it!



Nathan (my brother), Sarah, and Xan (nephew) were in town from PEI, Canada for a couple weeks in March. While they were here we celebrated the boys 1st birthdays (Xan-Jan. 28th, Aidan-April 4th).

Aidan loved eating his cupcake!

We love our big boy!



We also enjoyed a visit from Aidan's Great Grandparents (Sizemores).

Well, that sums up the weeks leading up to our big move. New pictures still to come!
