It has been awhile since our last post...things are still crazy as ever. Aidan was blessed by Bryan on July 6 and I`d be willing to bet that this blessing set the record for number of men standing in the circle....I quit counting at fifteen. There was one very special person missing, however, my dad Paul, who is a missionary over in Southern Africa and will be home this spring....yay! Aidan has begun to scoot quite efficiently around our living room and I fear will soon be crawling. Baby-proofing, here we come. He has rather recently become quite vocal, which mostly just includes screaming and squawking and a couple of syllables that translate as giii and mama. He is now a pro at most solid foods and eats about as much as a baby twice his age, but who am I to deny my baby his hearty appetite? Also he received his first ever bruise(courtesy of the scooting, that TV cabinet just would not move out of his way) and was not at all bothered by it. Of course, as most afflictions do, it bothered Mommy more than baby. Kelly is very excited about the upcoming holiday...Halloween has always been her favorite for some reason. She thinks it may have something to do with all that delicious candy. Bryan is simply excited for the semester to be over, because even though he will hopefully have more of a classload next semester, it is still one more semester closer to being through. Harley continues to be his usual self, lying around and begging for treats, people food, and attention, and barring access inside our house to anyone he thinks doesn`t need to be here. That`s about all I can think of for now, but more will happen, as always, hopefully all good.
