1st Easter

It was Aiden's first easter. We went to church and then to Gabby and Grande's. He slept the whole time during church thank goodness! But then after he was very very active almost fussy...and then after lunch we found out why....the WORST and I mean WORST number 2 diaper I'd seen since his newborn days. Poor little guy had a upset stomach. :-(

Before church Aiden was even passed out. It was cute he holding onto the bunny my parents got him for Easter. It was very cute! Maybe next year we can go to Birmingham. His grandparents here even had a little Easter basket for him. Not like he knew it, but it was really sweet. He got 2 new play outfits which I love, because they are soo easy to change. Some new Trumpette socks that are argle and have the 7 dwarfs name on them. A stuff animal, a blanket, bubbles, and a interactive book. Very lucky little boy to have such wonderful people in his life. I love this little guy with all my heart!
My happiest times are spent with Aiden and Wes. Love my little family!

Also, here is a shot of Aiden playing with his playmat. He loves one of the hanging toys so much. The other night he was giggling and smiling while hitting it. CLOSED FIST lol Hopefully he will open that hand soon. I don't want to get calls later about him hitting some kid. lol Kind of a violent toy, but he enjoys it. Likes the kick pad too, especially the noise that sounds like a bong. lol It's suppose to be water, but all I think about is....is that a bong?! lolol Really good thing to teach him. Wow!

House Pictures! FINALLY!

Okay So I didn't include pictures of the master bed and bath, and the guest/office room because they aren't done yet. So those are coming later. We did however pick out a shower curtain for our bathroom today. :-)

Aiden's Room
His room is my favorite room of the whole house. I just love it!!









Hallway
This is going to be my picture wall. I have started, but over the years it will grow more and more! View is from our room, my wonderful hubby put the lights on a dimmer switch so in the night I can turn it low so clumsy me wont bust my butt when going to tend to Aiden.
**Excuse the box in the way, we are replacing the attic stairs for SAFE aluminum ones lol**


Spare Bathroom
aka the Bama bathroom. We are still doing work in here aka replacing the missing tiles, but overall it's pretty done. Missing tile is what you get in repo homes, but hey you wouldn't believe the price we got on the house. We did good. Eventually we are having all the tile on the wall sprayed white, because after we took out the master bath we decided not to take on the task of removing the 2 feet of concrete in the walls.




Kitchen
aka Murphy's bedroom. This is my dream kitchen! We haven't but the backsplash up or the pot filler because we can't until the new bar countertop comes in. You can't see in the picture but the edge is too short so they are replacing it. By the way....I love love love cooking with gas! And my cabinets are amazing! They have all the fancy features. I never dreamed my first kitchen would be this nice! TRULY BLESSED **Excuse the mess I didn't have time to clean today, running too many errands while Aiden was sleeping**








Family Room

Where we are like 90% of the time we are home. It's where Aiden plays and where we all spend time as a family. It's taken over by alot of baby items (swing, play pen, pay gym, etc) but that's okay.






Everyday when I wake up and walk around my beautiful home I think to myself...what did I do to deserve all this...words can't describe the happy feeling I get.

Biiiiig Boy

I can't believe it, but on the 5th Aiden will be 2 Months!!!!!

So today was his doctors appointment, and let me tell you he HATED the shots! I've never heard him cry like he did there. I felt so bad for him. But I'm babying him all tonight, because he's still in shock I think. Just not acting like himself, like he actually WANTS to be swaddled. He hasn't wanted that since he was 2 weeks old. Normally its all about the freedom of kicking....which I think he got from me, because i hate tucked sheets myself. ;-)

Updates:
Weight: 16.01 lbs
They had to weigh him twice, because they thought the scale lied. The nurses were all like DANG hes a big baby! lol ummm thanks I thinks?! Then they go well at least you don't have to worry about being fragile with him. lolol ummm okay?! haha
Length: 24 inches
Diaper Size: 3
They are huge on him but they go from 16-28 lbs. At least he will be in these for awhile. Our leftover 1-2 size went to his cousin Harlee.
