Playing in the Snow
I can't believe Aidan is already one. His little personality has really come out more. He is always on the move and is always into something. He moves faster than any kid I have ever seen. My family nicknamed him "pinball" last weekend after seeing him dart around a room. Aidan is pretty easy going - as long as he is down and running around, he is usually happy. His little temper comes out every once in a while when he doesn't get his way or if he's hungry. He's a man of little words. He says puff, yea, bye, mama, dada, down and cake (yes, cake). I'm pretty sure he said Avery the other day but hasn't said it since. He also shakes his head no very intently if he doesn't want something. He blows kisses, waves bye-bye and loves to be told no. He's already started climbing onto toy boxes, small chairs and recently the cabinets in the kitchen. I turned around the other day and he was sitting in bottom drawer of the kitchen cabinet. At his one year check up, Aidan weighed 22lbs and was 30 1/4 inches tall. He takes his shots like a man and doesn't really cry unless he's restrained and can't see what they are doing. When he got his flu shot, he just grunted. (Much, much different than his sister.) We love our little man and don't know what we would do without him.
