Dad's Post

I wanted to post some random pictures of Aaron and a few with mom. Enjoy!

March Pics of Aaron

He is all dressed up and ready to go out on the town in yet another outfit from Uncle Mick.

Air guitar???
Aaron is eating baby food at night, which makes quite the mess.


He is able to sit up by himself for brief periods of time. He and Dad were playing with toys in his room.

"Northern Exposure" in Leadville

We spent Saturday and Sunday in Leadville, which is a small mountain town with an elevation of 10,430 ft. On Saturday, they had an event called Ski Journing. This is where Main Street is turned into a snow slalom course and skiers are pulled by horses. We bundled up Aaron in his down suit and watched this event. The high for the day was about 20 degrees. Aaron had to get some new sunglasses at the mountain shop.


On Sunday, we went cross country skiing around Turquoise Lake just outside of town. It was a really beautiful day. As an added bonus, a random snow mobile operator was hanging out at the lake letting people take his snow mobiles for a spin around the frozen lake. Cooper and I each got to take a turn.

March

We went to tour Coors over the weekend for a friend's birthday. Aaron went along. He is very content in his Baby Bjorn.


Aaron wore his coat that Uncle Mick gave him. He looked very cute.


I got a used "naughty chair" from a co-worker. Although he is too young now, his time will come! Very appropriately, Orange Cat Aspen was the first to try it out.


Aaron loves to "help cook" while sitting in his Bumbo. He is now eating some baby food at night. So far bananas, applesauce, and sweet potatoes have been a hit and green peas have not!



Another smile!

February

We went skiing at Loveland with Cooper's coworker Abby, her husband Jasen, and their son Blake who is 6 weeks older than Aaron.


Aaron has been playing in his Johnny Jump Up. Although, he has very little traction on our wood floors!

February 13-19

We spent President's Day Weekend and Valentine's Day at our friend Matt's house in Basalt. We skied the best skiing in Colorado at Snowmass.

Aaron has been playing a lot with his toys. He loves to grab and hold onto things.


He decided to wear Matt's work glasses when he and Daddy were admiring Matt's new tools.


Hanging out with our friend Kathleen:

January 31-February 9

We spent the weekend of Jan. 31 in Keystone with a group of friends. Our friends Molly and Tom brought their 6 month old daughter Ella. She and Aaron had a really good time together! He decided that he really liked her pink ball, so I found him a blue one this week. (The kids held hands on their own.)


Aaron fell asleep on the floor wearing his bear suit.
He loves to read books with his babysitter's daughter. They live next door to us.
Our friends Ryan and Katie came over for dinner last week with their son who is two and their 11 week old daughter.
Aaron was hanging out with me while I cooked dinner.
Unfortunately, the pics end here because our house has had cooties since last Friday. Aaron and I have had the stomach flu and are almost fully recovered now! We managed to infect our friend Deron too. So far, Cooper has been very lucky but has had to work from home to play Mr. Mom to a sick little boy.
