Shantelle's Shower

Marissa misses Grammy

Grammy is "On Course" this week, so no cell phone. This is the first week since Aidan was born that I haven't talked to her at all. Usually we talk everyday. Sigh.. So I've kept busy taking pictures. It was cold and rainy most days this week so we got to wear our new 6 month fall cloths. The white outfit I am pariticularly proud of--I'm really not good at matching and boys don't really get to wear ensambs...

Can't wait to see all the Schneider gals this saturday. Aidan can't wait to see his cousins.

Take our poll!

We have added a new feature to our super cool blog. On the right sidebar we will be posting poll questions. This weeks question is about finding a name for Aidan's red dog. I can't think of one and all his toys have names. (do I have too much time on my hands?..that's a question for another week)

Here is picture of the pooch in question...

New Discoveries

Aidan is now 14 weeks old. He learns something new everyday. Today we played in our exersaucer for the first time. He really doesn't like sudden noises- no matter how quiet. So the rattle on the saucer was not a hit. However, the very quiet dog was.

I can't figure out his fear. He cried when being buckled into his car seat today as well because the buckle snapped. Is it because it's usually so quiet at me house? Fireworks and thunder don't bother him at all... it's a mystery. Comments anyone?

He is really grabbing his toys now as well. He is getting attached to "Francis" the firefly. (Yes I name all his toys...) He gets all excited when he sees Francis. Aidan's feet are still high on his list of favorite toys as well. Still not in his mouth though.

As you can see from the past slide shows, Aidan sleeps on his stomach. I put him down on his back and he flips right over. Now he has figured out that he can scrunch up is legs and inch forward on his belly. I wouldn't describe it as crawling... but his is now semi mobile. It looks really funny- like an Inch Worm. (I need to look up the lyrics to that song...)

Three Months Slide show

Aidan is three months old today! (mommy says "threeth") He now weighs 14.5 lbs and measures 26 1/2 inches (at home)!
He rolls onto his tummy all the time: nap time, diaper changing, bed time. However, he is still ambivolent about tummy time.
He had his first bath in the big tub tonight and loved it! After his bath his hands found his feet-- what a cool new toy he has. I am sure they will find their way tho his mouth in no time.
He is quite the talker as well. He "sang" with Grammy Terri today insted of falling asleep.
