Christmas Eve and Day

Ayson Meets Scout and Saturday Fun

After Mommy took off the rest of the wrapping paper from the gift (from Grandpa and Grandma Roe), Ayson and "Scout" became fast friends.





Ayson also loves this card board box...all of the flaps are tons of fun and its the perfect height for standing!



Fun on Saturday afternoon :)

Wrapping Paper, Part 2 and 3

Ayson has made short work of the wrapping paper. We will probably give him the toy this coming weekend (since he will be at Grandpa Roger and Grandma Pat's for Christmas :)

Wednesday






Thursday

Wrapping Paper, Part 1

It took Ayson less then 10 minutes to notice the present next to the tree. A gift from Grandma Pat and Grandpa Roger. Mommy will document the demise of the wrapping paper :)

A Picture Filled Weekend

Mommy took LOTS of photos this weekend!

Ayson eating chicken that was not pureed. Mommy just mushed it up before she gave it to him.



Daddy and Ayson playing





Debbie and Randy stopped by on Saturday afternoon to meet Ayson and to visit with Mommy and Daddy. Mommy and Debbie had been trying to set up a visit since September...Mommy was glad that Debbie and Randy came over. It was GREAT to see/visit with them :)




Ayson waiting for and then watching the kitties come through the cat door. Ayson loves the cats. Mommy is trying to teach Ayson "soft touch" and not to grab fists of fur. So far the cats do not run as soon as they see Ayson. Granted, Ayson can not chase after them just yet. BUT it won't be long!






Ayson is his Christmas PJs



"Auntie" Denise and "Uncle" Rick (Mommy and Daddy's neighbors) stopped by on Sunday for dessert. Adam made Chocoflan. He was testing out the dessert recipe for the Spanish theme dinner we are having on Saturday:) YUM!!!

Nine Month Well Baby Visit!

Today was a "Fun" visit at the Doctors (no shots:) Ayson is doing great and now weighs 18.8 lbs and is 28 inches long.



Doc said that Ayson could start eating well cooked veggies (instead of pureed veggies) and that he could eat whole eggs (instead of just the yolk).
