Awesome Aidan

Thank you, Erin, for ending my strike! You are the reason I am posting again :) You and your delicious cake....

Aidan had an appointment with the doctor a couple of weeks ago to check his progress with the helmet and the doctor said he is all done! His head is not perfectly round yet, but it is much improved and the doctor said now that his head is growing correctly it will continue to round out as he gets older. It has been nice to not worry about the helmet (especially with warmer weather here!) The only time I miss it is when Aidan falls or hits his head...

Also, our special thanks to Zoie for allowing Aidan to play with her Cozy Coupe, he loved it!


Aidan's newest skill that he loves to show off is drinking from water bottles. He has always loved water bottles but he has finally figured out how to drink from them without soaking himself and everyone/everything around him (most of the time)

Performing this feat outside makes it all the more impressive, doesn't it? We spend most of our time outside now that the weather is nice; Aidan won't allow us to waste it inside.

Updates

We were lucky enough to visit Jenn and Eric in New York a couple of weeks ago. We also got to meet Fenway for the first time, who is adorable! It was great to see all of them. They were wonderful hosts and were kind enough to drive and/or walk us around to see some sites while we were there. We also got to visit with Eric's parents and Brad, Dianna, Heleyna and Braden while we were there. It was a fabulous trip!


Aidan had a good Easter, he was pretty excited the first time he accidentally opened an egg and discovered there was candy inside. By the end of his candy hunt he was covered in candy drool and we had to clean him up and change his shirt, but he had a great time.

Aidan's New "Hat"

It's official, we have a "helmet baby"! Maybe it's just because I think Aidan is adorable no matter what, but I really don't think the helmet looks that bad. He will have to wear it 3-4 months (probably more like 4) to round out the flat spot on the back of his head. Just wait, soon all the fashionable Hollywood babies will be sporting helmets after they see this....

Our Newest Book

My brother Bryce recently published a book through Lulu. We have ordered our copy and are waiting anxiously for it to arrive! I read the rough draft already and it is pretty exciting. There is no certainly no shortage of violence :) Hopefully the author will agree to sign our copy once we receive it. If anyone is interested, the link to download an electronic copy or order a print copy is http://stores.lulu.com/brycecampbellsbooks.

Aidan's Birthday Pictures

We took Aidan to get pictures for his birthday and they are adorable as always!

Happy Birthday to Aidan!

Today is Aidan's first birthday! He had a pirate party on Saturday to celebrate and it was lots of fun! He got visits from lots of family and VIPs, as well as quite a bit of booty!

Santa Claus is Coming...to the Mall

Over the Thanksgiving weekend my mom and Bryce came with us to the mall and who should we see but Santa Claus! Grandma was kind enough to arrange a meeting and a picture for Aidan, but he was quite wary of Mr. Claus so Bones and I joined him in his picture.
