It's been a long time!





North Pole Express

I apologize that it has been so long, but you know how it is. Life gets busy. Things have been just that with the William's Family and we are looking forward to a new year. Aiden continues to grow and mature. He amazes me everyday...doing little things for himself and talking more. I will try and keep this more up to date this year- but for now, here are a few pics.

Summer Fun








We enjoyed the warm weather, finally! Aiden loves playing in the water and I love watching him do it.

He couldn't get enough!

Valenitne's Day Weekend







The weekend started off with picking my brother Blake up from the Airport. He finished his Master's program in Germany and has come home (to the states) for good. It was so good to see him and good to have him home. I have missed him terribly and feel whole again just knowing he is back home. We went to dinner at the Bayou, waited 30 minutes and had crappy service but the beer and food was still good, as it always is.
Aiden got some new cars and some candy for Valintine's Day. He didn't waste time eating the candy. It was candy and chocolate for breakfast. Not the healthiest but what are you gonna do? He enjoyed every minute of it. He also got a cow that poops candy. Once he figured it out he looks at the toy and then looks at me and says, "it poops!" We also made Valentine cookies and shared them with friends and family.
It is now Monday morning and the weekend is settleing down. My mom and brother are getting ready to leave and Aiden is running around the house like a crazy caveman, as usual. I hope everyone had a good weekend too.

Christmas







This Christmas was just like any other Christmas, with the exception of my brother Blake not being here and Aiden being one year older. That meant Aiden was actually excited for his toys this year, unlike last year where he was too young to really understand the concept. It also meant that Blake wasn't there, which in turn meant, we were one man short for Settler's. Aiden woke up way too early, naturally, because that is what he does at my Mom's. So he stayed in another room until us adults were ready to wake up. When we finally did and showed Aiden all the toys and presents he ran out of the room screaming. I think the giant monkey scared him...just a little. He quickly got over it though, tore the monkey out of the fire engine and proceeded to get into the fire engine, where he remained for the rest of the morning. Picture
with monkey....in the fire engine. Picture with Wall-E...in the fire engine. Breakfast and lunch...in the fire engine. He loves that thing. Even still. He rides all around the house in it. We also had the opportunity to visit many family members. Visited with my Dad and Roberta and her son Cody and his wife Ashley and their son Spencer. We also drove to Grand Junction to visit my family there. I love Christmas...the only thing missing was my brother. Hopefully next year will be a different story.

Hogle Zoo Lights











We had such a fun night as a family. My mom came up for a visit and we were lucky to have my brother Cameron come along too. We started the night with a fresh and tasty meal at Buca di Beppo's. Love that place. If you haven't been you should go. We then ventured the Hogle Zoo for some lights. Fortunately for us, it wasn't too cold outside and we walked around looking at all the lights. Aiden loved it, which was the most important thing. I enjoyed him and spending time with my family.

Getting Ready For Christmas!








I apologize that it has taken so long for an updated post, however, as always the month of December has been crazy busy. Here are some pics of Aiden helping out with decorating the tree. Even though he doesn't quit understand the concept of Christmas yet, he still loved it- and we enjoyed it too.
