I'll admit, I love taking Aidan places. Is it always easier? NO. Is it more fun? Sometimes. Do I hate time away from him? Absolutely.
After work today we made a stop at the library to return books and pick a few new ones out. Then after a quick stop home we went to Acme. He was whinier than usual for a good bit of the time, but he was still very good. It's funny that he is aware of certain things in the store. For instance, when we're at the deli counter, he points to the cheese and wants a slice or two when I get the usual pound. Then when it's time to check out he casually points toward the drawer since that's where the stickers come from. If the checker doesn't give him one by the time we're just about done, he points even harder and looks at me like "Mom, can't I have a sticker?" I can't imagine how he'll be once he finally talks...he'll be asking for cheese and stickers before it's even our turn! He's adorable when we leave too, always sure to wave goodbye. Lately he's been getting antsy sooner than usual but he's also been good with walking with us. So as you can see from the picture he was my little cart pusher, except he didn't want any help, which could have been quite interesting in a pretty crowded Acme. What a silly kid.
My thoughts on life right now:
Acme is always crowded unless it's raining out.
Aidan is so fun.
I can't believe how fast he's growing up.
MUST get the almost 500 pictures online from Christmas and Danielle's wedding before next week!
