Just a quick update!

Hey everyone!

Just thought I'd post some recent photos of our munchkin! He's doing well..teething now, so as you can imagine, he's pretty miserable lately...and very drooly! Ayden is about 3.5 months old now and still growing like a weed (as you can see from his pictures - he was in a good mood here).

Keep checking the blog..I'll be adding more pics as they come!

Cheers,

Venetia, Bob and baby Ayden

Tummy Time and other Milestones

Well..I guess all that tummy time has been paying off because Mister Ayden is NEVER wanting to lay on his back anymore. All he ever wants to do is sit up or try "standing". Our little man is becoming very "independant". And let me tell you, when he doesn't get his way..you'd better watch out (poor boy has his mommy's temper)!

Ayden is approximately 15lbs, although he doesnt go for another check up for a few weeks- but I'd bet its a good or close guesstimate. He's started teething now - lots of drool...- and believe me, he lets you know when he's tired now. Aside from the rubbing of the eyes, the shrieks and screams are a dead give away! We've been eating pablum for a few weeks now ( some pictures of that disaster are on a previous blog) and he seems to be doing well on it. We actually get to sleep longer than 4 hour stints..its great. Again, I will NEVER take sleep for granted again! He's doing so well..its great! He recognizes voices and faces now and is right on course for his age level..some things he's even surpassed..its amazing and yet scary...my little boy is growing up! Boo hoo! I'm sure there will be other milestones to follow, and when they do, I'll be sure to let you all know!

Cheers all!

Love Venetia, Bob and baby Ayden

Merry Christmas!

Hey everyone and happy holidays!

Everything is and has been so incredibly hectic, we've been going non stop! Its been great to see everyone though - especially family!

Mr. Ayden got extremely spoiled this Christmas - lots of clothes and lots of toys! His favourites so far are the baby Einsteins, the Robeezes from aunty Jen, his many Christmas sleepers and his chew rings ( he appears to be teething already!).

As you can see..there have been a few milestones hit over the holidays. Ayden began eating pablum - his first solid food! He is also bathing in a big boy bath tub (with the help of mom and dad) . Our little man is growing up too quickly! Next I'll be sending him away to college!

We've gotta say sorry to those we never got to see this past holiday...all the running around put us tight to see everyone in such a short period of time..but we promise next time!

Until then, enjoy the latest pics!

December 17 2006- Ayden's Baptism

Hey everyone! Long time no write..I know..we're horrible! The holidays were so hectic..but it was really nice to get everyone together and see everyone!

I'm not going to write much for this blog entry because its pretty self explanatory - Ayden's baptism. He was baptised back home on the 17th of December. He was such a good boy..he slept through the entire baptism! It was kind of funny..not even the water woke this little man up!

Thanks to all those that could make it and thanks to all those who sent their warmest!

cheers!
