Just Chillin'

Here is Aiden doing what he does best: lounging!

Headless Aiden

Aiden fell asleep in the carrier and with the hat on I thought he looked like he had no head. I never really go anywhere or do anything without Aiden he's like my sidekick. It's hard to find ways to get things done when your arms are full of baby so the carrier is a useful thing to have around.

Hold your head up, Keep your head up

Aiden holds his head up so well now. Even though he only likes it for about 1 minute before he gets angry about being on his stomach.

Aiden "Talking"

This is Aiden "talking" as we like to call it. I wonder if he'll be good with words since he seems to be developing so quikly that area. I hope he'll be a famous writer or something.

Aidens Blessing

This is some if the Fam on the day of Aidens blessing. I was affraid he would be too big for his outfit but it was alright he was too long for it but it still fit. I wanted him to look like he was wearing a tux. Too bad I couldn't find a tie.

Garden '08

Mike did most of the work planting the garden while I took pictures and videotaped him. We planted bell peppers, tomatoes, zucchini and squash.

If you look closely Mike is wearing his nice clothes that are meant for his office job. I guess maybe he's trying to tell me he wants new clothes or something. More likely he's just being a silly boy.

Best Buddies

Aiden With his best Buddy Tanner!
Tanner is my cousin. At first he was afraid to even hold Aiden, now as you can see they've become pretty close. We went to Mikes family cabin this weekend and took Tanner with us. He is such a good kid he helped with the dishes and everything.

Aidens First Smiles

Here it comes












wait for it.....












There it is!

My life as obliviously all about the baby. Ya I'm one of those people. It's good though now that he is in our lives he is the most important thing.

Cute pictures of Aiden

This was a surreal moment, I didn't know what to think. I was just glad it was over!









After 14 hours of labor and 5 hours of pushing Aiden finally arrived! Once the doctor showed up it only took 15 minutes! I really wish the doctor would have arrived sooner. I'm not sure what I will do for my next birth but I can tell you now I'm not doing it that way again. Doctors and nurses defiantly take advantage of first time mothers because most don't have your best interest in mind. My advise is to stand up for yourself girls tell them what you need and don't let them brush you off!

Happy Aiden

He looks like such a big boy


Aiden is smiling so much and even making noises like he is trying to talk. Mike and I will sit for hours everyday talking to him.

New baby Aiden

Here's the new baby Aiden he is so big already it's weird to think how small he was when I took these pictures.


























The first weeks I was still learning to love the new baby. I know for some people it comes instantly, but I was in a lot of pain. And I was a little upset my life had bean completely taken over by this little thing. It's a hard transition my life used to be about Mike and I and then all of a sudden it was completely about the baby. Luckily I had Mike to tag team with if it wasn't for him I don't know if we'd have made it. Aiden wore us both out, but we got through it.
