Visits with Santa

Aiden had his first ever visit with Santa on Friday and he did surprisingly well! Not only was he okay with sitting on Santa's lap, but later was interested in going back to visit some more. He sat along side Santa for a few minutes, along with his other friends from day care. The Lexington Hearing and Speech Center (LHSC) also passed out reindeer antlers for the entire "LCSC" Reindeer Team.

On Sunday, we ventured up to the Newport Acquarium with Nana, Pa and Christopher. Santa made a surprise visit by snorkeling in the shark tank! We spent a good part of the morning seeing all types of sea creatures. Aiden loved having the freedom to run around and look at all the exhibits. The Christmas decorations and Christmas music that played throughout the acquarium put us all in a cheerful mood! For lunch we visited Dewey's Pizza and finished up the meal with a chocolate and vanilla layered cake, which Aiden loved, of course!

Big Boy Bed and early Christmas/Birthday

Well we are at the end of the first week of Aiden sleeping in his big boy bed and we haven't had any problems so far. He hasn't fallen out and can successfully get in and out of his bed without help.













Aiden also received a early Birthday/Christmas present from Nana and Pa (Laura's Parents). A Imaginarium train table which he loves. He attemtps to play with it at all hours of the day especially before he leaves for daycare.

Big boy bed!

After a long hiatus we have decided to update the blog. Today Mimi and Poppy came over and helped us move Aiden's bedroom and to setup his big boy bed. Thanks Mimi and Poppy!

As you can see from the following picture Aiden loves his big boy bed

Aiden is finally walking!

Aiden Loves the Pool

Here is Aiden enjoying the pool in Ft Myers.

Bottles are gone

Over this past weekend we went cold turkey off of bottles. After a couple of failed attempts at easing him into just using a sippy cup we decided to stop the bottles all together. Here is the first morning after we stopped the bottles. Looks like he is taking it pretty well, don't you think?
