6 months

Six months ago today, a happy, smiling baby was placed in my arms and things will never ever be the same.


To celebrate our 6 month anniversary, I'd like to share a few things about Aiden, our son.

He hasn't stopped smiling.  He's a bit of a comedian.  He loves to laugh and make you laugh.


He isn't much of a baby anymore.  He has grown an astonishing four inches in six months. His weight has remained about the same.


He can cut a rug.  He absolutely loves to dance and will dance to anything that has a rythym.  He even tries his best to keep up with the stars on Dancing with the Stars.  He likes to sing too.  Sometimes sings so loudly during American Idol that we can hardly hear the contestants.


He loves, loves, loves to eat.  He is still not a huge fan of anything meat related but will down just about everything else.  I think his favorite food right now has to be Cheerios - we can't keep enough of them in the house.


He is smart and I mean really smart.  His vocabulary has grown by leaps and bounds and I am surprised each day what he picks up...both in English and Spanish.  It is amazing just how much he has learned in such a short time.  He may just be smart enough to become a doctor...or something even more useful to our family - a veterinarian.


He hates ALL things medically related and has proven to be one of the most difficult children that All Children's has ever attempted to draw blood from.


He is beginning to love Nascar making Angelo one happy daddy which makes a happy mommy too because there will be a day that Aiden can take my place at all things race related.


He is a lefty.


He is gorgeous.


We call him Indio.



People often comment on what a lucky child Aiden is that we came into his life, but in reality we are absolutely the lucky ones to have been blessed with this wonderfully sweet child in our lives...and for that, I will be forever grateful.  I love you my sweet boy!
