My first Mother's Day

Today was my first official Mother's Day. And I'll say it did not quite turn out as I thought it would. First of all Anthony was on crutches and I had to help him get ready for work and then take him to work. I then spent the day taking care of Aidan which I expected to do. And while I was taking care of him he did the most amazing thing. I put him in his crib because he was fussy and I did not know what to do with him anymore and he just laid there and played for like 10 minutes. Then I gave him a little bottle and he passed out! He slept for 2 1/2 whole hours! Which was amazing.
Then I went and picked up Anthony and we decided to get pizza for dinner because I did not want to cook. I got Aidan ready for bed and laid him in his crib. he then talked for awhile and he fell asleep! I was in complete amazement. Not only did he put himself to sleep but he did it in his crib. This is the best Mother's Day gift I could have gotten. Now only if he sleeps for a good while in his crib. Fingers crossed. I also got some really nice cards from all of my family. So happy Mother's Day to everyone out there and I hope you enjoyed how you spent it now matter how small it was.

Whatcha lookin at?

So today Anthony had an appointment with the foot doctor to look at a wart on his foot. The doctor said it was really big and needed to come off, which they decided to do right then. So luckily Grandma was available to watch Aidan so I could go back and get Anthony. They had to laser the wart off and it left a pretty big hole in his foot. So big he needed stitches and he is walking with crutches. So after all the months of him taking care of me after having Aidan and then having my gallbladder out I can return the favor. Especially since he has to have surgery on his knee here soon in the next couple of months. So right now Anthony is hopped up on Darvacet and playing XBOX lol while his foot heals.
Of course I could not blog without posting a couple pics of my completely adorable son! Enjoy!

new favorite toy!

So Aunt Jennifer gave us Ashleigh's Jumperoo from when she was a baby and Aidan loves it!!! At first he was just happy to be "standing" on his own. But now he has perfected the jump and bounce! It is also great because it has some toys on it and plays music so I can get a few things down once in awhile!
Another first for Aidan was that he went to his first movie on April 26 and saw the Disney movie Earth. He did really well, he watched the big screen for awhile and then he slept for most of the movie, so I would call it a success.

Finally the computer is working again!

So I have not been able to post for awhile because my computer charger died and I had to wait for a new one to come. So lots to catch up on!
First Aidan had his 4 month check up on April 27 and here are his stats
Weight 15lbs 10oz 67%
Length 24.5 inches 35%
Head 16 inches 14%
So he is growing big and strong! We got the go ahead to start cereal when we felt ready. Since Aidan always stares at everything we eat we thought we would give it a try here are a couple pictures from his first feedings of rice cereal. He is really starting to like his cereal even though most of it ends up on him instead of in him! Lol. We are already onto oatmeal which he loves!
