Granny's visit

Granny got here Monday to stay for a few weeks and spend time with Tyler and Aidan. She has been busy, not having a moment's rest. All day she is either playing with Tyler, or holding and talking to Aidan. Tyler is doing his best at sharing time. He enjoys being included on the feedings, throwing diapers away, and making Aidan smile. He LOVES to hold Aidan and always says "picture - Aidan". I think he has gotten to the point where he automatically thinks if he holds Aidan there will be a quick draw on a camera - he is usually right. Aidan is getting so much more vocal, talking and laughing. She is such a strong little girl, she pulls her head so far up from our shoulders it's scary at times. When she is sitting on her bobby pillow she is nearly doing a sit up to pull her head up. She is so alert, she is beginning to enjoy watching baby Einstien and has been caught paying close attention to the Bee movie while Tyler is watching it. I know we will have a busy couple of weeks while Granny is here. She will be going home to sleep for a few days when she leaves :)

Our princess

Aidan is our little pincess. She is now beginning to smile and talk quite a bit. She loves her swing, she would sleep in it all day if she could. She is at about 9 pounds now, still not wanting food as much as her brother did at her age. She is sleeping so well through the night, only waking once to eat. Usually around 3:00 or 4:00. This morning was the morning for the whole house to sleep in. Aidan didn't wake up until 6:00 and Tyler didn't get up until 7:00- wow mommy really got some sleep! She is loving her nightly baths, kicking a little in her warm water. She is really beginning to watch her toys, especially the ones with bright yellows and reds. Tyler was reading her one of his favorite books today and she was really watching the bright yellows in the book. She loves to be swaddled at night, she is our little pea pod. We will be updating more pictures soon.

Our precious new addition

We are so sorry that have not updated our blog in a while. We have been busy with our precious new baby girl, Aidan Grace-Madison. She was born on December 3rd and is such a good baby, sleeping from 9:00 until 5:00am. She has such a sweet disposition and Ty absoultely loves her. All the aunts, cousins, granny, nana and mommy have had such a blast buying baby girl clothes. Aidan is so much fun to buy for. Even daddy has enjoyed some shopping time. She has become daddy's little princess, he just adores her. She is mommy's baby girl, we love our cuddle time. Tyler loves to help with diapers, pacifiers, and blankets. He always wants to hold her and many times he will just stand by her and rub her head. We are truly blessed with our family. Chad has done a wonderful job putting new pictures up from Christmas and there will be more to follow. There is the cutest picture of all the boys in their firetruck sweaters and Aidan in her dalmation dress. We also love the picture of Aidan with Tyler and her cousins on Christmas morning in their Christmas pjs.
