We had a great Easter. Aiden found eggs in the morning which had cars and jungle animals. He did a great job of finding them although needed help opening most of them.
We got Eli a new big boy seat like Aiden eats in. I think he likes it. He started sitting at the blog titled Eli's Firsts. He did it a few times that day but I thought it was a fluke. It turns out, he sits up now. We have to put a blanket behind him because he falls over often but he's gotten much better in the last few days.
The pictures below are from our plane trip. It went pretty well after we finally got through security. The boys tried to stay awake the whole flight but thankfully they eventually both feel asleep. Below you can see Eli (we had to cover his face so he would close his eyes) on Brad's lap.
Below you can see Aiden in his seat. He had no room between his car seat and the back of the other seat. He kept kicking it because he had no room. I felt bad for him and the woman sitting in front of him.
Aiden is loving hanging out with his cousins, Kassie and Bryce. Bryce has more trains than we could have ever imagined and really cool pieces. Kassie and Bryce built a really cool track for Aiden. He was having so much fun.
After they played trains for a few hours, Bryce got out a box of cars/trucks. Aiden really went nuts and hasn't stopped playing with them since. In fact, Aiden has pretty much taken over their living room with trucks and trains.
There is a park pretty close to Steph and Steve's house. We went down there yesterday and the kids and Steph. We had fun as you can see.
Bryce put together this helicopter. You pull a string and it goes flying. Aiden thought it was pretty cool.
We passed Eli around to keep changing the scenery for him. He likes Steph and Kassie.
Today we went down to where the conference is at so I can make sure I can find it tomorrow. We also went down to a park where Aiden had a ton of fun. He got to play in a fire truck and go on a real mini train.
There was this big playground and all Aiden wanted to do was play on the "track" which he kept repeating to me.
He was so excited about the train that we bought tickets and took the boys on a 20 min train ride. The picture below is Eli before the train ride ... he fell asleep on the way home.
Aiden thought it was pretty cool that we went under a bride but we were on a bridge still.
The picture was taken tonight. Eli was eating his toys while Brad was eating the remote. You can see Eli sitting up pretty well. Eli had to forgo his usual oatmeal cereal tonight because ... he's a little clogged up. We might have to take him to a clinic pretty soon. We have fed him prunes a couple of times but they aren't working. We gave him some pear nectar today. We'll see if that produces anything.
I'm exhausted. I am NOT big fan of sleeping in the same room as Eli. He wakes up crying every morning at 5am. I don't go back to sleep after that!! It's horrible. We might have to put him somewhere tonight. My conference finally starts tomorrow afternoon which I'm excited about. Hopefully I'll get the chance to blog again before we head back to MD.
