Real first roll over...

and second, and third, and fourth!!! He has been practicing for the last 3 days and has really started holding his head up very well last night. The third had a hard landing so Aiden was grumpy for #4 (below). Click the play button to see the video

Philadelphia

This Saturday we decided to explore Philadelphia. Shortly after arrival we realized that this city might require another visit to see it all.
Aiden was great! Maybe he is starting to get used to all this traveling. He got to officially break in his new sling.
Mommy loves this new sling and is going to invest in several more (you can use it til they're toddlers and still have free hands) www.lucky-baby.com (based in Utah).

From the moment we woke up Daddy was singing the Rocky theme song. Here they are. The Rocky steps.

Independence Hall


and of course Aiden's first visit to a Hard Rock Cafe! Mommy's favorite!
More pictures of Philadelphia check out 2007 album on the Em & Josh photo link

First roll over?

We haven't decided that it is the official first roll over, more likely just a fluke. Anyway, Aiden decided to have his first roll over end in disaster.




I've also added a few more pics from this photo shoot to our 2007 album (see pictures link on right hand of page)

Personal History: Parallel Play: Reporting & Essays: The New Yorker

While listening to my NPR podcasts I was pointed to the article Personal History: Parallel Play: Reporting & Essays: The New Yorker by Tim Page in which he talks about his life with Asperger's. I found this article amusing as it discusses a few of my own quirks (we don't share most but a few are incredibly familiar). More entertaining was when I hit a section in which he describes an abnormal behavior to which I thought "That's interesting, I never realized that was abnormal, but it makes sense".
