Aidan LOVES open gym at the local gymnastics academy! I'm not sure he's ready for a structured class just yet- but maybe by the spring!

A recap of July & August

July & August in some ways went by very quickly- but in others took forever! Alex was gone for most of both months which made them seem to go in slow motion. But we did manage to pack in a lot of fun stuff to help it along. We found a great park, went to a farm , the beach & had a bunch of play dates to name a few! The end of August brought Alex back home & also a trip to upstate NY for the Mack twins Baptism. We made a mini vacation out of it stopping in to see Aunt Alice & Uncle Steve, meeting John & his wife for lunch (a roommate of Alex's from the Naval Academy), a surprise visit to see GG (my grandmother) & Uncle Stanley, a hike in Rickets Glen & then finally a stop in at Grandma Joy's before we picked the dogs back up & headed home!

We finished off August with hurricane Irene- as most of the east coast did! Thankfully we did not have any damage here at the house, we didn't even loose power throughout the storm (although we did for a short while on Sunday while they were cleaning up some down trees in the area)

Summer fun

Alex is stuck in DC for the better part of July & August- so I have been back and forth quite a bit between home and the grandparents houses. His new social schedule keeping us on our toes! Here are a few pictures of fun with the grandparents...
Aunt Gina even came in this weekend to play!

We've got a climber!

Aidan is taking after Alex & climbing on everything! He has figured out how to climb up on our big sofa, the bench that borders the back porch & our footstool, just about anything that is available! He loves to find boxes or turn over laundry baskets & stand on them like he is king of the world!



(thankfully he is very conscience of his surroundings & is pretty cautious when up on things. He handles stairs very well & don't have to worry too much of him falling head first off of whatever he's climbed up on!)

the garden

My garden is treating us well so far! The cucumber & zucchini are going crazy! Still waiting on the tomatoes, cantaloupe, watermelon, broccoli & cauliflower though!

Mohawk maniac!

Aidan has had quite a few wild spurts recently. Although it is super fun to watch him having such a good time, it usually means he is overtired & things will not end well come bedtime! This is what happens to the house when he lets loose...

His hair is finally starting to fill in a little bit! It's getting long enough to spike up after a bath! He is also getting lots of curls coming in in the back! Can't wait till he has a nice thick head of curly hair!
