Weekend Vacation


This past weekend we went on a mini vacation with the Shelle fam. It was the first annual Shelle-Sheridan-Hughes weekend (the Sheridans & Hughes are long time friends of the Shelles). Even though Aiden was fighting a pretty bad cold we still had tons of fun; the weather was beautiful and the company was great.

Team Shelle - all smiles :)

Life with Aiden


Our genius child - 11 months and he is already reading :)


It is hard to see but if you look real close you can see the cat on the other side of the window - poor old lady kitty getting ganged up on by the boys.

So cute


Playing with Collin


Dinner time - I LOVE to eat!! (well usually...)


"seriously mom, you want me to eat this? "


All tuckered out


You know me - I love the baby toes!!



Hmmmm...

Swingin'



Aiden and I went to a birthday party this weekend at the Potter Park Zoo. We decided to try out the swings and he loved it, so last night we walked to the park near our house to do some more swinging and of course take more pics.

"what is this thing all about mom?"


"yippee this is fun!!"


Always with the tongue sticking out these days.

I think that he looks so old in these two pics. I can't believe that my baby is almost 1 !!

Fair Week

We took Aiden to the Ingham County Fair last week for his first (of many) sheep showing experiences. It was, of course, very hot so he struggled a bit when we were in the barns but he liked walking around the fair and eating all the fair food (mmmm elephant ears...).

I LOVE ICE CREAM



Hangin with Nana watching the Beebe kids show their sheep.

My Slacker Mom

"So I was just checking out my friends blogs and I thought that I would see what cute pics of me my mom had posted recently and that is when I saw it... mom hadn't posted in over a month!!! I couldn't believe it, especially since I've done so many cool things this past month. So I thought that I had better give everyone and update.

First I figured out how to crawl a few weeks ago and it is GREAT because now I can get into EVERYTHING! The coolest things I have found so far (besides the x-box) are the vacuum and Migo's food dish. Migo's dish is great because you can splash around in the water and then roll the little bits of food around on the floor. Mom and Dad don't seem to like it though because they tell me no, but I just look at them and smile real cute so they won't notice what I am doing :)

I have also grown two beautiful teeth this past month. I try to use them when I am eating, but so far they haven't really helped much (I still manage to eat pretty much everything in sight). It is pretty cool though because I get to brush them like a big kid and have a cool green toothbrush of my own.

In addition to crawling and growing teeth I have also learned to clap, wave (not to anyone in particular), and give high fives. I am starting to try to stand up more but sometimes it is hard to keep my legs straight, so I have to keep practicing.


So that is what I have been up to this past month.
Mom promised she would post some pics soon:)"
