Grandma Lois and Some New Skills

On Wednesday, Grandma Lois came to stay with us for a week. She bonded right away with Aidan while reading him a book on the floor. He loves this. You can flip through the pages and tell the story forward and backward about 7 times before losing interest. Aidan has also made more progress in the crawling department. More often now is he getting his arms underneath him. It is so fun to watch. He will lift himself up on hands and knees and then lean forward and do a face plant into the carpet. He keeps us laughing all the time.

Aidan also is enjoying his food. I feed him baby food 3 times a day now. And he eats like a chow hound. Except in the mornings. Like Daddy he just doesn't like to eat much in the morning. He especially likes carrots, and a blueberry/apple mixture. He's got a sweet tooth also like his Daddy. Mommy does get meat and veggies in him too and he does not resist. He seems to like everything.

Reading on the floor with Great Grandma Lois

He loves it when the pages turn.

That is one cute booty!

This little maraca he likes to shake with his wrist. He makes his wrist go up and down and he looks at the shaker. He loves the sound. I think we have a little percussionist on our hands. We have to watch him though cuz he also likes to stick the end of it all the way down to the back of his mouth!

I love how Grandma Lois gets down on the floor with the babies and kids. She has done this for as long as I can remember!
