Aaron is One!





Aaron is 1 year old. Well, okay 1 yr and 1 month but mom's been kind of busy. I can't believe how amazing you are. These photos really capture the magic and spirit and joy that you are. You are standing now....all the time. You are starting to cruise around a little but you are such a fast crawler that it is still your transit of choice. But you are happiest standing if you can find something to hold onto. You have figured out how to stand and open the cabinets and drawers so mommy is teaching you what you can and cannot touch and not really getting that much done in the kitchen anymore. You also enjoy climbing so we need to keep an eye on you when you get near the fireplace. You can appropriately say Ooooooh, and Mmmmm especially around food. you know how to Sign "more" and "all done" (although screaming does seem to get mommy's attention when you want more). You especially love blowing kisses and waving Bye-Bye. You are usually pretty good about blowing kisses to mommy's friends and family and we love your bubbly, friendly, open spirit. Aaron LOVES his big brothers and loves to follow them around. You can often be found playing (okay destroying) the Thomas train set with your brothers and love to just hang out in their room with them chewing on an elephant trunk or anything you can get your hands on. I can see already that you are ready to be one of the big boys and don't want to be left behind. You accidentally had your first french fry today.....and then your second, third and fourth one. You let it be known that you wanted more. You fill our days with so much joy. What an amazing (and quick) year it has been.
