anddddd here's daddy's family

This is daddy's family. There are a few more of them then what is on mommy's side.

Uncle Johnny, daddy's younger brother. Him and Uncle Gene play in a local band together. He plays the electric guitar and is the lead singer.
Aunt Lisa

Cousin Lennon. Even though he is 19 months younger this is gonna be my partner in crime.

Uncle Gene, daddy's older brother. Uncle Gene plays in the band with Uncle Johnny and plays lead guitar and sings backup vocals.

Aunt Robin. My Aunt Robin was so excited when daddy told her they were adopting me. Aunt Robin never really got to meet me because she was sick when I came home and was in the hospital. Aunt Robin went to heaven August 27, 2006, just a few weeks after I came home. I know Aunt Robin is watching down on me and we will finally get to spend time together one day.

Cousin Jessica

Cousin James John

Cousin Jacob

This is daddy's family. I know it looks as if my grandparents are missing but I never got to meet them. They were in heaven waiting for Aunt Robin before I came along.

Mommy's side of the family

Aiden would like you to meet his mommy's side of the family. She has a really small family besides her aunts, uncles and cousins. Although mommy's family is small we are all very close and live in the same subdivison. This is my Mamaw Sharon. She was really excited when she heard mommy and daddy were adopting me(mommy is adopted too).

My Papaw Larry. Papaw plays ball with me and hangs out with me outside.

My Uncle Ben, mommy's little brother. I am soo glad he moved back from Cali so he can watch me grow up.

Auntie Charla, my Uncle Ben's wife.

and last but not least, my crazy cousins, Joshua(4) and Benjamin(7). We like to play ball together and swim when its warm out. Sometimes I even ride my motorized bike with them.

Glad you got to meet a part of my family. Mommy says that they all love me to the stars and back and are so glad that I am a part of their family.

Happy Halloween and some Aidenisms

Trick or Treat. These pictures were actually taken a few weeks back while we were at Guatoberfest in Atlanta. We aren't to sure we are going to be able to get Aiden in this again as he flips out everytime he sees it but we are keeping our fingers crossed that he chooses to go out since his big sis Kelsey and bud Domonique want to take the "little monkey" out. Please get me out of this monkey suit

Has anyone ever heard of a monkey nap instead of a cat nap?
Poor little guy was so upset about having to wear this that he cried himself to sleep.

Aiden is slowly but surely starting to talk more but has his own vocabulary.

Mommadadda-he uses this for both mommy and daddy

Peez-please

Kwhere-uh - Clara

Dip-a-dee-Domonique

Tank ew-thank you.

Dat-That

These are just a few that mom can think of off the top of her head.

Happy Halloween everyone.

Splish Splash Aiden's taking a bath.

Aiden's favorite time of the day is bath time. Sometimes he will play with his toys in there but he really would prefer to just play in the water with the handheld shower thing.

Rub a dub dub Aiden's playing in the tub.

Trying to get a drink out of the spray of water

Daddy if I pout do I have to get out?

A day at the park

Today we went to what we thought was a family reunion but only 18 people showed up so we took the opportunity to play in the park and get some pictures.

Aiden playing peek-a-boo in the tree.

This is one of my all time favorite pictures of him.

Peek-a-boo daddy we see you.

Playing with leaves.

The Three Amigos

Aiden loves his oldest sister so much. It amazes me the bond these two have.

Aiden and his other best bud Domonique, Kelsey's boyfriend, watching the water.

Watching the ducks...quack, quack.

Weeeeeee.

This doesn't look like our "big bathtub"

Favorite Foto Friday

I was trying to decide what to do for FFF and thought how fitting to use a picture from last Halloween. I look back at this picture and get tears in my eyes remembering how little he was last year at this time(11 months).

Playing with daddy.

Aiden gets soooo excited when he hears the garage door opening and he knows daddy is coming home from work. They had a good ole time today playing ball and wrestling around on the floor.

Awww daddy, Aiden wasn't done playing yet.

Can you please sit still

I wanted to take some Fall pictures of Aiden but he had other things in mind....forget sitting still and smiling for me.

Here is the enfamous face again. PLEASE stop taking my picture.

The big 1 6........

What do you think she wished for?

You guessed right. Those that live in Southern Indiana when she becomes a legal driver we will forewarn you.

For some weird reason blogger wouldn't let me start at the top with the words.

Yesterday was Felecia's 16th bday and Aiden wanted to dedicate this entry to her. We love you Felecia.

Playing at the waterfront

Aiden in the land of birds...he kept looking over his shoulder like they were coming after him.

Strutting his stuff like he owns the world.

This picture is really blurry but was cute.

Here I come Sophia..be there soon.

Mommy I can do it I am a big boy.
