Busy busy busy

Over the weekend, we celebrated my 31st birthday, went to Asheville to visit family, and hosted dinner and friends for the night on Sunday. A busy but great weekend. My uncle Glenn from upstate New York was in Asheville visiting my parents so we made the 2 hour trip to see him (I mean, he drove 13 hours down here…we could at least drive 2 hours to see him, right?!). We stayed with Granny and Granddaddy so we could see him model his Father’s Day present (see below). Aiden was entertaining as usual and made the US soccer loss slightly more bearable to watch on Saturday.

When we came back on Sunday, Scott’s good friend from college and a friend of mine from high school, Heather, stayed a night with us along with her two adorable kiddos, Xavier (1.5 years) and Elijah (3 years). It was equal number kids to adults so it was a little wild but they are all such good kids, we had a blast just catching up and grilling out with Uncle Dave and Jen. Good times all around.

Despite all the construction that is going on in Aiden’s room, he is doing very well. We had to move him out for a week or two so they could put a roof over part of Scott’s big deck and they unexpectedly had to move A’s window a bit. Lovely. The money pit strikes again. Anyhoo, Aiden is starting to sit up for short amounts of time (before toppling over headfirst – baby’s heads are so heavy!) and he came SO close to crawling the other day. He, Bruno, and I were all on our bed and Aiden was trying to get to Bruno by army crawling but he was just spinning his wheels and not going anywhere. Hilarious to watch. Good try little man!
