Has it been a year?!?!


One year ago today, Mike and I got up early and went to the hospital so I could get started into labor. I had to have some antibiotics pumped into my system before they would break my water, so we just watched a lot of Home Improvement and Price is Right while we waited for anything to happen. (Not a lot on for early daytime TV...Poor Mike!) Finally at 1:50, the Dr. came in and broke my water and went back to the office only to turn around and come right back because at 2:10, our big baby boy Aidan was born. He weighed 8 lbs. 15 oz. and was about 21 in. long. (Not my biggest baby, but a very close second!)
Aidan has been such a joy in our lives! He wants us all to know his place in our family and is very vocal. He now practically runs everywhere he needs and wants to go. He is into EVERYTHING and throws some great tantrums when you get after him. This birthday is bittersweet for me because we waited so long for a little baby in our home and now our little baby is growing up too fast!! We love our little boy Aidan and can't wait to see what fun he is this next year!
