Ohio

We traveled to Ohio for a few days so Carrie's family could meet Logan and see how Aidan has grown. We also got to meet Carrie's cousin's new baby Noah. Noah was born at the end of February. We had a nice time. We drove from NC to WV one day and then WV to OH the next. The boys did very well. When we were at the hotel in WV Aidan decided his normal babbling of "ba's" was not appropriate and he started speaking words!! He was saying, "Cheese" for pictures and quacking like a duck. Once we got to Ohio the words kept flowing. He was mimicking everyone's words. Carrie's Dad would say, "Hey Dude" and clear as day so would Aidan!! He definitely impressed us!! Aidan was not too fond of sleeping somewhere different. He had fun during the day but nap time and bed time became rough. We had a nice visit, but we all agree there is no place like home!! The boys traveled very well on a looong one day drive home.

Aidan is 1.5 years old!!!

On Monday Aidan turned 18 months old!! Time sure does fly. We can't believe six months ago we celebrated his first birthday and here we are six months away from his second!! Today he went to the doctor's for his check up and stats. Aidan is doing very well. He is doing everything someone his age should be!
Here are his stats:
Head Circumference: >97%
Height: 34.75 inches >97%
Weight: 28 lbs 75%
He is proportionately large!! The picture we posted is one in the car on the way home from the Observation Deck. Man was he wore out!!

Logan

Here are a few pics taken of Logan over the past few days.

Memorial Day at the RDU Observation Deck

Today we spent an hour and half before lunch at the Observation Deck at the airport. Aidan loves to watch the airplanes. He enjoyed playing in the sand and watching planes. We got to watch Nana's plane land on her trip home from Florida!! Mr. Logan spent most of the time asleep. The rain chased us away so we had our picnic lunch indoors. Andrew and Carrie took so many pictures we had to make a slide show.

Memorial Day Pool Party

Our pool has an annual cook out on Memorial Day. After Aidan woke up from nap we headed to the pool for the first time this year to eat and swim! We started Aidan in the baby pool and then took him in the big pool too. He loved it last year but we did not know what to expect this time around. He still LOVES water!! We had to stop him from just walking straight into the deep end a few times. He loved watching all the people there. Logan chilled in the stroller and was oogled at by ladies of all ages.

Baptism backyard fun!

OK, well most of the pics are of Aidan...but he had fun!

Logan's Baptism

Today at church Logan was baptized!! Logan's Godparents traveled all the way from Kentucky to visit with family and share this special day with us. Logan handled the baptism very well, he did not cry when the holy water was poured on his forehead. Big brother Aidan was very quiet while watching. After Mass family and friends came to our house for a cook out. Too bad it was super chilly and rainy!! That did not stop the kids from having fun. A few of those pictures courtesy of Andrew's Dad will be on the next post. Thanks Matt for the next pics, you're a determined photographer. :-) (Apparently no flash photography is allowed in church...did they tell us?? No, just once the flashes went off and Matt had our camera and had no clue how to turn it off.) So, he kept taking the pictures! :-D
