Poindexter

We always joke that Aiden looks like a poindexter when we comb his hair to the side but when papa's glasses were added to the look there was no hiding his inner nerd!!

Christmas

Team Shelle had a fun Christmas season. Unfortunately mom had to work for most of it but we were able to see lots of friends and family. Aiden didn't really understand the concept of unwrapping the presents but had no trouble with the concept of playing with all the toys:)

Our Holiday season started with Aaron's cousin Mary's wedding the weekend before Christmas. Unfortunately by the time we got to the reception Aiden had spiked a high fever and was miserable. So Aiden and I went back to the hotel room, dosed up with Motrin, stripped down to the diaper, and called it a night. Fortunately by morning the fever had broken, and even though Aiden was not his usual self we managed to make it through the Shelle Christmas celebration with only a few meltdowns.

a very sad sick little boy

Brianna, Aiden, and I spent the morning after the wedding together while the dad's recovered from the wedding festivities. Bri is great with Aiden and gave him LOTS of pampering.

We managed to take almost no pictures of Christmas but here are the few we did get :)

Still not really getting the present opening thing.

Fancy church clothes



I tried so hard to get a good picture to use as a Christmas card this year but never found one that was just right (hence the lack of Christmas cards). Here were a few of the top contenders.
