My Best Guys

I felt like I needed to do a post to let my two favorite guys know how special they are to me.

I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband. I love him so much. He is always supportive of anything that I want to do. I feel so blessed to know that he is mine forever. I appreciate everything that he does for our little family. He works so hard everyday so that I can stay home and take care of Aiden. I feel so grateful for the life that we have built together and for the little blessing we have brought into this world. Thank you for everything that you do Paul. I love you.

I know I have said it before but I can not express how blessed I feel to have Aiden in our lives. He is such a sweet, special spirit. Every time I look at him I can not help but smile. He is such a good little baby. He was defiantly worth our wait. I love you sweet baby!

9 months!!

I can not believe that Aiden is already 9 months old. Where has the time gone? He is no longer my little tiny baby that will let me sit there and hold him. Instead he is this big baby that crawls and wants to explore the world. Not only is he crawling but he is also walking along furniture and trying to balance himself long enough to stay standing. I am sure he will be walking in no time which means he will probably just be getting into more stuff. Each new stage is exciting and the time is going by so fast. His favorite thing to do lately is pull out all the DVD's and throw them on the floor. I am picking up DVD's about 3 times a day. It's ok though as long as he is getting enjoyment out of it. It keeps him busy for awhile at least.

He is doing more and more everyday. Paul and my favorite thing right now is getting him to shake his head. At first he was just copying us when we would do it but now he has caught on to its meaning. Every time we tell him "no" know, he just shakes his head and looks at us with a big grin. After that we are quick to forget what we were telling him "no" for in the first place. I have a feeling that might be his first word and I can't say that I am proud of that. He also likes to hear himself. A lot of times when I put him down for a nap he just sits there and gabbers to himself until he falls asleep.

I am sure I have said this before but I feel so blessed to be this little boy's mom. He is happy most of the time and such a cute little guy. I can't stop lovin on him and I can't imagine life without him. Here are a few pictures of him lately.

Aiden crawled under his jumper and stood up under it. He did find a peep hole through one of the leg holes. I am glad he stayed there long enough for me to take a picture. He did think he was pretty funny.

One night after putting him to bed he was just talking away. We came in his room and this is how we found him. He was just hanging out, having a good time.

Aiden will go to any length to get to what he wants

Christmas

This year we were able to fly out to Idaho to spend Christmas with my family. I always look forward to those trips and being able to spend time with family and friends. Aiden and I went out a little earlier then Paul so we could get in some extra family time. And that we did. Aiden had alot of fun with all his cousins and he sure didn't mind all the extra attention. His cousin Camree absolutely adores him and makes a very good "second mommy". I must say though, I was a little disappointed my second day out there when Paul called and said we were getting snow in North Carolina, when all it was doing in Idaho was melting. As tradition goes we spent Christmas Eve with my dad's family and Christmas morning with our family opening presents. Aiden didn't really get it this year but he sure had fun with the wrapping paper. Then we spent the rest of the day with my mom's family. With everyone having more kids it seems to get crazier and louder every year but thats the way we like it in the Korth house. I wouldn't have it any other way!

We flew home a few days after Christmas and spent some time with Paul's family. His mom and dad and sister Heather came and stayed with us through New Years so it was almost like a second Christmas. I am so glad they were able to come spend time with us and that we were able to see Heather for a bit. I am especially grateful for the time they get to spend with Aiden.

Aiden and Auntie Heather

No, these are not all Aiden's presents, in fact only a few are his.

Aiden was completely mesmerized by Santa. At least until Santa dropped him. It really wasn't that traumatic. He went to put Aiden down on the floor and I think he though Aiden could walk. It was all ok in the end and Santa did feel very bad about the whole thing.

Aiden and all his cousins visiting with Santa.
