Real Life

Most of my blogs have been about specific events or milestones in our lives. They are filled with stories, good pics, and memorable moments. But what about everyday, ordinary events in our lives? Yesterday I decided to keep the camera close by and capture a day in Aiden's life. These pics aren't posed, they are perfect. His clothes may have milk on them, his nose may be running, he still has fever blisters on his lips, but let's face it - this is real life!



He found a box of Cheez-Its in the living room that had been left out the night before. He decided to help himself while I was in the kitchen fixing breakfast. He was quite proud of himself and didn't spill any! So much for a clean kitchen. Almost every morning he pulls all the Tupperware lids out of the cabinet. I think he just likes to make messes. Fortunately he is getting old enough to help me put them away.

In the midst of playing with the lids he realized that the cat was hiding in the laundry hamper. Poor cat didn't see Aiden coming and ends up cornered, but not for long.
The cat managed to escape and thankfully neither baby nor feline were harmed during the encounter! So then he just had an empty hamper to play with which was just as much fun.

Caught climbing! He has figured out how to climb up on anything that's low. Now that he can climb on the toy box he will do it anytime the door to the office has been left open.

He is a little less eager to get back down off things however.

It's the little things in life that mean the most. God has blessed us with the best little thing ever!
