We had a pedi appointment yesterday and that went well. We see him again for Aiden's 6 months shot and his RSV shot. He finally hit the 10 pound mark and weighed in at exactly 10 pounds yesterday.
He's sleeping better although he still prefers to sleep for mommy during the day and stay up with daddy during the night. It's slowly changing and he does sleep well. When he is awake he is very social. He loves watching and looking around. He gets so excited and wide eyed it cracks me up. He's closer to rolling over and tries really hard sometimes and he's finally making more "baby" sounds. He has even started to play with the toys that hang from his car seat. Well he hits them to make them move and make sounds. That's what I call playing for now.
Today we are waiting for our first appointment with EI (Early Intervention). They are coming out to do there evaluation and paper work. Other then that things are pretty much status quo.
As you can assume, some days are better then others, but all in all, having Aiden home makes everyday a good day.
I've taken him out with me for walks to the pharmacy and to do other things and he loves it. The last few days we had felt like spring and he enjoyed being out so much. He'd smile when the sun was shining on his little face and just perk up. It's just amazing...
I'm still keeping to the rules. Don't take him out during peak shopping hours. Don't let people get in his face. Keep anyone with a cold 50 miles away. OK maybe not 50, but away! Make sure people wash there hands and use purell. So far it's going well and I am very picky about who is around him. I have to be, we can't afford for him to get sick, he's been through so much already.
Me and CHuck got our flu shots too, which they advise you to do and any family member who is going to be around him.
However as for the holiday, due to doctor's orders we will be spending Thanksgiving home this year. His pedi suggested we NOT do a "family style" thanksgiving to avoid all the people around Aiden. Either way I am still thankful for what we have and I wish everyone a happy turkey day..

Well, i am sooo happy that Aiden is doing well and is a happy little peanut who FINALLY gets to enjoy being outside! I am one of those who must stay 50 mi away as i now have a head cold and RJ has pneumonia - story for another day... We love our litte Baby Aiden and continue to pray for him and for you both.
Lots of Love and Kisses (he'll have to get them from Mum and Dad right now),
Auntie Elisa, RJ & Olivia
Wow! Ten Pounds!! Good Job, Aiden!
Jess and Chuck... enjoy your Thanksgiving at home with your precious boy! You've waited so long and I'm so happy that you have him with you now for the Holiday Season. I'm happy to hear that he is doing so well... these adorable pictures are just too much! I can't WAIT to hold that Baby!!! Theo's sniffle has turned to a little cough, so until everyone in the house is totally healthy, I'm keeping my distance! Don't want to take any chances!
Many many Blessings to you all this Thanksgiving!
GLAD ALL IS WELL AND I HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD TURKEY DAY ALONG WITH YOUR LITTLE MAN
