4/22 - A Great Day!

Yesterday Brad and I worked all day but we got to play with Aiden for a while when we got home. All of these pictures are from yesterday. The one above is in the kitchen. Aiden sits in there while I get dinner for him and the animals. After dinner I let him play (see picture below) while I clean up.
He's been getting a tooth in his upper right and it's really been bothering him. It's been the worst one so far! We've been drugging him up with Motrin, Orajel, and teething strips but he's still in lots of pain. He was running a fever of almost 101 yesterday morning. He's drooling all the time and everything goes in his mouth. He went up to the freezer the other day and dropped his paci and acted like a sucker fish on the fridge. It was so cute but sad he was in that much pain.

The picture above is from after we changed Aiden into this PJ's. The boys went out on the deck and layed in the hammock for a bit. After they played, they came in we practiced walking with Aiden. The past few nights we have been practicing with him. He walks everywhere with his walker or the laundry basket. He's got awesome balance and can actually stand for a while by himself. We also discovered the other day he can take a few steps by himself too ... BUT he doesn't trust himself yet. We are trying to show him he can do by making him take one or two steps by himself. He did it once and then I wanted to tape it. Aiden wanted the camera so he didn't walk like he was for us before but you can see he is getting there.

Today I visited with Arin and went to lunch with her and her baby girl (who she adopted 2 weeks ago) named Grace. Brad left work early and joined us!! It was great. Brad and I then drove to Waldorf to go to the Family Christian Bookstore. We got some books and I finally got a bible cover so I can stop tearing the tabs on it!! It was fun.
