So Much To Say
I have just been terrible at updating my blog. I have quickly come to realize that the more mobile your children get, the less time on your hands you tend to have. So with Ayden currently napping, I thought this would be a good time to document some of the recent things that have been going on in our lives.
Ayden is saying a few words now. Although he doesn't know how to use all of his words, it does not prevent him from trying to talk. He jabbers all the time and tries to communicate non stop. It's very interesting to listen to him because he does little pauses between his "sentences" and sometimes it will sound like he is trying to ask you a question. He has definitely picked up on different tones from the people around him. He loves talking with his hands too, which is rather cute.
He has a bunch of teeth now and is getting much better at chewing table food. When he was first introduced to table food he had (and still does sometimes) a terrible gag reflex. He loves macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, and of course anything dessert.
He finally decided to take his first steps by himself a few weeks ago. He has the balance, and is able to walk, but still chooses to crawl as he still thinks that is a faster way to get from point A to point B. Soon he will learn though and before I know it will be running from place to place. I am going to try and figure out how to post the video I took of him walking from my phone onto here, so hopefully that will be my next post!
Last week we took another trip down to Utah to visit Michael's son and family. Noah has grown so much and truly is a sweet boy. I loved the time that we were able to spend together and watching his interaction with Ayden. I finally heard him refer to Ayden by his name versus the usual "baby". I think Michael really enjoyed his time with his family. Not everything went according to plan when it came to Noah, but we are in the process of fixing that, so our next trip and our trips from there on will be completely different and Michael and I (as well as his family) will get the time we rightfully deserve.
While we were in Utah I celebrated my 26th birthday. His family was kind enough to all rally together and help me celebrate. It was a lot of fun and I'm glad I was able to share that time with them.
We are currently getting ready to start looking for homes. Our lease ends in December so hopefully we will be able to find something that suits us when that time comes. We have put off moving long enough that we just need to do it now. Moving can be such a pain and extremely stressful, but if we ever want to be a family of 3+ we need to get it into gear, ha. Plus, hopefully that will be our last move for a while.
So yeah! I think that pretty much sums up what has been going on in the Terry household. My next to do item is to try to get that video loaded on here. :)
