Yesterday I took the boys to get their pictures done. I thought I'd hop in to one with them, so I actually put something nice on and did my hair and makeup. Aidan looked at me and asked, "You're kind of lovely?" I laughed so hard, which he found quite funny. I wasn't sure how to take it; was it a compliment or a reminder that perhaps I should take a little time to make myself look nicer each day? Either way, it's a great memory! While I was getting ready, Aidan was playing in my room. When he brought me something that is normally in my jewelry box, I knew it wasn't going to be a good site awaiting me. I was right... he had the jewelry box tipped over and all of the drawers and their contents all over the floor. Now that may not seem like a big deal because I don't have much jewelry, but I keep all of my spare buttons in my jewelry box, and they were everywhere!
Austin is waving hello now, and Aidan's new phrase is, "Oh my gosh!" Aidan is also very "good" at throwing my words back at me. For example, he is telling me not to talk back to him and not to tell him what to do. It's a great lesson in patience for me, and right now, I'm failing miserably.
The pictures we took turned out ok. I went mainly to get a few of Austin while he's still "little." Aidan didn't deal too well with the attention being on Austin, and he kept setting up his own props and posing just like Austin, saying, "Look at me!" All in all though, both boys did a great job. Austin didn't want to sit still for long, so we had to carefully snap pictures between he crawled away. I got a few cute pictures out of it. It's amazing how the photographer took 30 pictures of my gorgeous children, and only about five or six turned out to be cute. It's a mystery...
