Some pictures from our CA vacations. Uncle Mike took Aiden on his first boat ride around Lido and Newport. Uncle Mike and Papa Fuzzy even took Aiden for his first scooner at Mutt's. Overall, I think Aiden enjoyed his first visit to CA. He got to meet most of his CA family, go to the beach, the aquarium, the fair, the pool, the mountains, feed ducks, go on his first bike ride, go on a jeep ride with his cousin Alexys, and check out the girls in bikinis with his Papa Fuzzy.

Aiden is pulling himself up to standing whenever he has a chance, and he has even stood unassisted for a few seconds. He has mastered his walker and goes flying around the house to discover new things. He makes lots of sounds like dadada, bababa, fafafa, and laughs at me when I try to get him to say mama.

I think Aiden is happy to be home though and sleep in his own bed. Time to get back to a routine. Many thanks to all of our CA family for their hospitality during our stay. Hopefully we'll see you again next summer!
