Andrew turned 3 months old today. He's still sleeping well, and for the past few weeks he's been in his own room. He's starting to get eczema just like Aiden did at this age, but at least this time we know what works and what doesn't. By 1, Aiden had outgrown it, so hopefully Andrew will too.





Aiden's Birthday party was a lot of fun. It wasn't great weather, but the rain held off so the kids could enjoy the bounce house. Here are some pics.

Aiden turned 2yrs old today. I can't believe it. He's such a big boy and everyday we love him more. He's 35.5" tall and 28.5lbs. He loves to eat but is still lactose intollerant and one bite of egg will produce projectile vomitting. He got his first Trike from my parents and is having fun learning how the pedals work. We got him a workbench for him to bang around on when he and Joe are in the garage doing projects. He will repeat anything you say and Joe has gotten in trouble a couple of times with that. He's really into "dinoroars" right now and Curious George. Elmo is still in the picture but slowly phasing out (thank God!). He loves his little brother and gets really upset when he cries. We're having a party on Saturday for him with all his little friends. There will be 16 children under 6 here so I'm hoping it doesn't rain and they can enjoy the bounce house.

We went to the new aquarium in Golden Gate park on Saturday and it was kind of a nightmare. There were so many people that you could barely move and a 3hr wait to see what we went to see. Needless to say, we spent more time looking for all the members of our group than we did seeing the fish. It wasn't worth the $25.oo. So if you go, go during the week on the first Wednesday of the month when it's free and get there early. By 11am the parking garage was full! We headed back to my parents for lunch where my sister and kids met us.

We survived the holidays and starting next week I'm back to work part-time. It will take some getting used to for Andrew as he is a momma's boy, but Aiden is happy with dad time so he'll enjoy the attention. Here's some pics from this week.
