FAQ

Aidan's new exersaucer at Grandma and Grandpa Finn's house

I thought I'd share some of the FAQ's I get about Aidan:

1. How old is he? 5 months as of Aug. 31

2. How much does he weigh? approx 14 lbs 5 oz

3. How long is he? approx 27 inches

4. Does he sleep through the night? Well, sometimes. He usually goes to bed between 8pm and 9pm and sleeps for about 7 hours. He gets up around 4am to eat, and then it's back to sleep until about 8am.

5. What is he doing? LOTS! He is rolling over both ways. His favorite new sounds are the "f" sound and smacking his lips together. He also says "ma", "ba", and "boo" (just sounds, he doesn't know what he's saying yet) He still loves his jumperoo and is sitting better on his own. He sits fine in his chair now, and can sit unassisted on the floor for a few seconds at a time. He would much rather be standing than sitting.

6. Does Roxie like him? Most of the time. She loves to lick his face, and he doesn't mind. Aidan loves it when Roxie walks by him or makes noises. He will burst out laughing at the sight of her. He recognizes her clicking toenails on the hardwood floors and will start looking for her before she's in the room.

7. Is he eating solid foods yet? Nope, but soon. The doctor said closer to 6 months at our last visit, so I'll probably start rice cereal within the next week or two.
