Aidan is 8 months old day, and he has been a busy little guy lately. During these past weeks he had been working up to crawling, and then in the last week while my mother-in-law was here, he made some big breakthroughs as she has been teaching and encouraging him to crawl. Whereas before he [...]

Aidan is now 7 months old, and he is growing well, getting better with his hands and eating lots of solid foods. He has a voracious appetite and likes to drink over 35 ounces a day on top of at least a jar or two of baby food. That also means he tends to still [...]

I wish I could find a way to tell you how much I love you, my sweet and precious little baby. Someday, when you become a parent yourself, you will also understand. Until then, you probably won’t know just how much I cherish you. People say that having a child changes you. I never knew [...]

Aidan is 6 months old! His half-year birthday was the day before daylight saving time began, and spring is just around the corner. Time sure does fly.

The holidays this year have been busy and nice. It’s Aidan’s first Christmas and New Year’s, although he is too young to understand what’s happening. He is content with his milk, sleep and cuddles. Aidan’s Christmas gift to us was sleeping through the night — really sleeping through. At first from 8pm to 4am, or [...]

Aidan is just about 3 months old now, over 13 pounds, and sleeping 6 hours for the first half of the night regularly. He’s increasingly curious about the world, and being more talkative and interactive as well. I went back to work this week, and my mother-in-law has been taking care of him most of [...]

Our little boy is 2 months old today, and he has been doing very well. He has virtually doubled his birth weight, weighing over 12 pounds, and has reached several milestones. He is now holding his head up well, doing some mini-push ups, and most wonderfully of all for me, he has started smiling! He [...]

Our little Aidan is 6 weeks today! They say you never stop worrying about your baby, and it’s definitely true. We went to the pediatrician on Friday. He weighed over 10 pounds! We were there to check out some red rash that had broken out all over his body, torso, back and legs. We worried [...]
