Aidan Marston William
33 months old!
Welcome back, Aidan-watchers! We are proud to announce that our son has now articulated a philosophy of life. And what has out little Socrates decided is his reason to be? I give you a succinct summary of toddlerhood, to which all parents can relate:
"One more time, always!"
Yes, it wasn't enough that Aidan operated on the idea that there's nothing worth doing that isn't worth doing a hundred times in a row - he had to put it into words! Ah, gotta love the little guy.
Anyway, on to the pictures. Since the last update we've had a visit from Grandma, Hallowe'en, Christmas, trips to see family in Georgia and Las Vegas, and a wedding. Phew! This boy gets around...
A visit from Grandma and Tippy.
Grandma also visited at Thanksgiving, bringing along Aidan's cousin Alex to join us.
Aidan loved having a big brother for the week!
Working on his soccer moves.
Wheee! Fun with Mommy at a park in Fort Wayne.
We presume it's fun, but the serious face suggests that it's hard work visiting the Indianapolis Children's Museum.
Hallowe'en!
Comparing costumes with his friend Ruth.
Christmas with Gran.
Wheeeeeeeeeee.......!!!!
True romance is finding a companion (here, his friend Katherine), who'll join you in watching the garbage truck at work.
The next Van Gogh, at work with his art table on Christmas Day!
Or maybe he's a musician - the next Dizzy Gillespie! Ah, the dreams of parents...
With his cousins Grant, Trevor and Alex, in Vegas at New Year.
The cousins got him roller skates for Christmas. He loves practicing with them at home.
Winter hit hard in Indiana this year. As the 17 inches of snow began to melt Aidan noticed we had some looooong icicles hanging from our house.
At the wedding of our friends Dine and Nico, Aidan enjoys a snack and enjoys meeting his new friend Andrea.
Peek-a-boo!
Such is the life of a dog in a house with a toddler.
Until next time, bye!
