Crazy January!!!

Hi everyone! I know I have not updated the blog in a while but I have been working late everyday in January. It has been a difficult month for me in that I have not had many opportunities to see Ayden. I am very excited that our busy tax season is tapering off to allow for some more family time.
During the past month, Ayden has been doing some great things. He is really starting to say some words besides his favorite “Dada”. If you say to him, “Ayden, where’s your truck?”…he will go over to his truck, say “Tuck”, drive it around and go ROOMMMM!! It is so cute and I am so proud of him. He tries to say a lot of the words that you say, so it is really cool.
What I love the most about what he is doing now, is he is always looking to see if you are watching when he does things. So, for instance he will have a toy in both of his hands, and he will manage to stand himself up from sitting. He then looks over his shoulder at you to make sure you are watching him. Once you give him praise and clap your hands, “Yeahhhh!! Ayden”, he then get’s so excited and claps his hands with the biggest smile. He is just so happy and we couldn’t be more blessed to have him in our lives.
It is just really exciting seeing him grow and gaining more and more personality. I love to just watch him and laugh at all the things he is doing. I don’t have too many pictures, so I promise I will get more to show everyone now that I will be home more. Enjoy!

Here is Ayden getting ready for to go out in that first snow storm....barely fits in the carseat.
He really loves that camera!

D, I'm sorry you have been working so much! I can imagine how you must miss him! Glad it's almost over! Ayden sounds like he is such a great baby! I can't wait to see him again! That pic of him in his carseat is hilarious! I think he's outgrown the old chicco!
