Aiden is now eight months old and is a little more mobile - or at least trying to be. He rolls all over the place and is trying to figure out how to crawl. His attempts are funny in that he lunges forward and then usually ends up on his face or just sticks his butt in the air and then yells because he wants so badly to move but doesn't know how. I have been warning Aubrey that soon she will have to move to the kitchen table to do most of her activities or Aiden will be joining her. He definitely is already trying to make his voice heard in that whenever Aubrey takes a toy away from him he yells and cries - the fights are starting. Aiden also had a tough week before Thanksgiving in that he had the stomach flu and was pooping and projectile vomiting for five days - not fun for both him or us. He couldn't keep anything down - poor guy, but is doing much better. Unfortunately he spread it to the rest of our family on our RV trip to Ohio, but no one had it as bad as he did.
I think I feel the start of his first tooth coming soon (we have slow teeth growers as Aubrey didn't get her first tooth until she was eight months either). We have been waiting for some teeth as he wants to eat real food so badly - he watches everything you put in your mouth and will yell of you don't give him a taste. He is even starting to master puffs in order to feed himself. Still no brakethrus in his sleeping habits as he still wakes one, two, or three (when he is sick) times per night - I finally think my body has gotten used to it (I haven't had a full nights sleep in over a year now) in that someone at work told me I don't look as tired anymore (thanks - I think?).
For Thanksgiving we took an RV with my parents, and my sister's family to Dayton to spend Thanksgiving with Chris, Kathie, and Lucas. In total we had six adults, four kids under 3, and three dogs. The kids loved it and called the RV "the bus". We had a good time and were able to go shopping, the guys went golfing, and we took Max and Aubrey to see Tangled in 3D. Thanks to Chris and Kathie for letting us take over their house for five days - we hope it wasn't too bad.
This past weekend was also the first snow we got. Aubrey wanted to go outside to play right away - I don't think she remembered the snow from last year. She wansts to wear her boots all the time now and walk in the snow - she helped Daddy put up the Christmas lights this weekend too.
Not sure when I will have the time to blog again this month as our December is filled with 30 year old birthday parties, two year old birthday parties, work parties, xmas parties, breakfast with Santa, and of course Christmas. Will have lots of pictures soon!
