Happy Austin and Aidan's child labor :-)

Austin turned 19 months old the other day, and (knocking on wood) our happy baby seems to have returned! The last few days, he has been back to the "old" Austin! He has been eating and eating and eating, so his appetite is back as well! He's back to going to sleep on his own, and two days in a row, I've had to go in and wake him from his nap.


I tried to get him to sit still long enough for me to take a picture of him in the Spongebob chair, and these are what I got.

Aidan has been our big helper lately, and today he helped me vacuum. He's showing me up, though, because he even moved the rug and vacuumed under there! While outside tonight, he helped pull weeds too! I am going to save these pictures so that in five years I can show him that he did, at one point, enjoy doing chores! :-)

Jared does not have to work on Saturday, so that is GREAT news! That's what I get for putting it in writing! :-(
Aidan has started asking Jared every night if he has to work the next day, and the other night, he actually teared up when Jared said he was going to work the next day. Aidan needs another Daddy weekend! That being said, we let the boys stay up last night so they could have some good Daddy time with Jared. They had a great time together!
