So I hope you all had a festive and love-filled Valentine’s Day 2006. Patrick was sweet enough to bring home a big red shiny balloon for Ayden. And the balloon was wieghted down with an adorable cupid teddy bear! Many brownie points for Patrick! (Oh, and he didn’t forget about me either… I got a sweet card with a nice sentiment inside, and most importantly THE WINNING POWERBALL TICKET – at least I hope so. The drawing is tonight, so we’ll see!)
As an aside, I was posting some photos from the last couple of weeks to the new February 2006 gallery, when I realized that none of the photos show Ayden’s two teeth. Yes, he already has TWO teeth. The bottom middle left was the first one to break through right around his six-month mark, and the bottom middle right waited until about a month later. The second one is all the way through the surface of the gum, but not much is sticking up yet. It’s hard to get a decent closeup photo since everytime I go to pull his lip down, he purses them together. I’ll have to try to catch him during one of his open-mouth smiles.
And on a depressing note… I just got my first email about our TEN YEAR High School reunion set for this August. Truly unbelievable how time flies!?!?! I think Patrick and I will plan to make an appearance, but I have a feeling we’ll have to do some arm-twisting where Chad is concerned. But I’m sure he’ll attend too. Oh yes, he will.
Wow, those really were great pics! Ayden is so darn cute and smiley! I love it! And thanks so, so much for throwing me a birthday brunch. It was awesome, and extremely thoughtful. I love you guys!
What fabulous pictures! I must say, I do love that wooly hat on Ayden! And yes, you definitely have a “heart breaker” on your hands! Too cute!
