A Walk Around the Block (or House)

Yes...time flies by so fast, especially now that I'm a mommy, but I really can't fathom the concept that my little monster is already WALKING...well sort of. The other evening Luke and I were sitting in the living room and Aiden was cruising around the couch. I was sitting in the middle of the room trying to get him to let go of daddy's leg. All of a sudden he did, and then proceeded to take three...yes THREE steps toward me. Luke lept off the couch (while almost tossing the laptop onto the kitchen floor). We tried very hard to get Aiden to walk again but he was of course too tired (and confused about why mommy and daddy were jumping up and down with such enthusiasm).

That was few nights ago and since then I have tried to take every opportunity to get him to do it again..but it's almost as if he knows that's what we are trying to do. He has no interest.

Aiden has also hit this new phase where he likes to copy everything we do. Pops (Luke's dad) was over the other day and he stuck his tongue out. Without hesitation Aiden stuck his tongue out right back at Pops. Luke also shakes his head back and forth when telling Aiden "NO" and now, when Aid sees anyone shaking their head he does it right back at them. He even arches his eyebrows just like his daddy. It's really quite cute!

Here are some more pics from the last month:

He is growing up so fast...walking already? WOW! I think it is an adorable phase when the little ones start to mimic - so much fun and makes for great stories.
