Starting off the new year

I was uploading pics from New Years and realized that I need to start a new year in Aaron's folder. He's got his own picture folder on my computer and 2009 got up to over 3000 pictures. My resolution for this year is to not keep so many stupid photos that I know I won't do anything with, 'cause I know there's a lot of those in there. It takes about 5 minutes for Bridge (the program I use to view all of them) to pull all of them up. Takes FORever!!!
This is a toy that Mimi and Papa got for Aaron for Christmas. It's his very first video game console! Joy! It's a little horse that he can bounce up and down on and it makes noise and it does things with the TV. Or he can just use it on it's own and it makes galloping noises. He doesn't stay on it very long at this point, but he'll get the hang of it eventually. He usually just goes up to it and presses the buttons. Or when he does ride it and the TV part is on, he's figured out there buttons on the horse that he can put and it moves to the next scene. That drives me nuts because he presses the buttons before he even gives it a chance to let him do anything. It's like flipping the channel before you even know what's on! I can't watch that.

And I really need to let this kid start using utensils. He does fairly well, but it just makes a mess, but I need to get over that unless I want to feed him all the time or I want him to use his hands all the time like they do in India. That won't work.

And this is the kicker!!
He's got a big boy bed!!
And it's a RACE CAR!! This was Chuck's idea.



He slept in it last night. Chuck stayed in there until he went to sleep and only woke up once but went right back to sleep when I got him his paci. Then he came into our room at 8am! Right on time! It worked out well, but I'm kind of dreading naptime today. He just likes to run back and forth on it and fall down. I'll have to post a couple videos of that, it's pretty funny.
That's all for now!

LOVE the bed. Looks like he does, too. Where did our baby go? Gotta come see him soon. :)

Noah still loves to ride his horse too! He just has a short attention span so doesn't stick w/ it much when we turn the TV part on. Aaron will probably do better w/it than Noah.
