Aiden making huge progress

So, this has been a big and productive week for us. Aiden has started noticing that he has a voice and can make noises. He plays with his ears and sucks on every finger except his thumb...all at one time!

A HUGE obstacle that we overcame was last night. We put him in his crib awake and let him cry himself to sleep. It's a good thing Mike was here and blocked the door or I would have been in there picking him up. He cried for an hour and then slept through the night. He woke up once, fussed a little and went back to sleep and woke up at 7:30!!! That is the latest he's slept. I am sure it is from all that crying.

Today, I took him to BJ's. I realized he was probably old enough for the grocery cart contraption and sure enough it said 6 months and older. He did SOOO well. It was much easier to shop. He loved all the different things to look at and plus I wasn't running into display cases from not seeing over the car seat! Yahoo!!! Oh, and of course everyone walked by smiling at me and him. I love it!

By the way, he kept his hand up like that the entire time. Soo cute and sooo tired!
