We have had an exciting couple of weeks. First, Bones bought himself a brand new car!
Okay, so maybe it is just a remote control car, but he is still enjoying it. Aidan loves to watch it zoom around in front of the house, too.

It was Bones' birthday on the 19th. We went out to a nice dinner earlier in the week all by ourselves while Aunt Cassie watched Aidan (thank you again, Cassie!) Bones got a digital picture frame so he can admire Aidan even when he is at work and some new clothes.

He also enjoyed cinnamon rolls and a free Coldstone ice cream. That's right, we are members of the Coldstone birthday club. Go ahead and be jealous, it's fantastic and very exclusive...
Best of all, Grandma came to visit for a few days! We had lots of fun with her while she was here. Bones took her to visit a couple of coin stores in Salt Lake, we had dinner with Cassie and Jordan and we got to visit Grandma and Grandpa Campbell. Grandma even watched Aidan all day while Bones and I were at work so he didn't have to go to daycare.
Last of all, Aidan had his first taste of real food! Maybe not real food, but at least rice cereal. He enjoyed playing with the spoon and squishing it out of his mouth. We think he managed to swallow a tiny bit at least.

We took Aidan to get his 6 month pictures on Thursday and they went much better than the 3 month ones. There was no screaming and no pictures with angry faces :) I think Aidan is used to the paparazzi (aka his parents) so now he knows how to pose for the cameras like the superstar that he is...

The Face of the Swine Flu

Last Sunday we woke up and noticed that little Aidan was not feeling well. Being scared of the Swine Flu (thanks to all of those infected at McCall's work), we took him to the doctor. Luckily our pediatrician is open 24/7. The doctor told us it was just a cold. Now that we can't blame McCall's work we will blame our daycare, it was totally their fault. I was just waiting for Aidan to catch his first cold and it finally happened, unfortunately too soon in my opinion. On our nation's birthday, while I was at work, McCall took advantage of our pediatrician again. Aidan had a high fever and we found out he also got an ear infection. The doctor only saw the ear infection after cleaning out Aidan's wax-filled ears. Thanks a lot for those Campbell genes :) Aidan is doing much better after being put on Amoxicillin. I wanted you all to see his little snotty face.

Happy Father's Day!

Sunday was Bones' first Father's Day! Aidan wanted to make it very special to show his appreciation for his daddy so he got him Arrested Development, his favorite salsa with some tortillas to make chips and "Dad's" root beer (okay so maybe it was just A&W, but give him a break, people, he can't even read yet!)

Aidan finally has his blessing

On Sunday June 7th we finally blessed Aidan. His full name is Aidan John Hollingsworth. It went really well, I was nervous at first but I made it through. We had a little party at the park next to our church afterward. Aidan looked amazing in his all white suit, not many people can pull that off but he did. We were super glad the rain stopped just long enough for the party. I want to thank all those who came, it was good to see all of you, especially those of you who we haven't seen in a long time. Thanks to all who brought food to the amazing party at the park.
