Making Mama Proud

It's never too early to start good oral hygiene practices, especially when two more teeth have made their way in! It's actually almost scary how intently he's brushing...

How much fun could a purple vibrating hippo be? Just watch!

No Longer a SAHM

Part of the reason I've been super bad at updating is that I am no longer a stay-at-home-mom. I will be starting my 3rd week at a full time job tomorrow! I recently changed offices because the dentist I was previously working for wasn't as ready to retire as he thought he was, so he couldn't offer me more days. Working one day a week was really nice at first while we got adjusted to VT life and any appointments that Aaron may have needed. But, 4.5 months into it, it became really dreadful to go to work. That one day would haunt me all week long. Besides, since the other doctor was still working, there weren't really enough patients to keep me busy. So, I started looking for another job. There were a few offices that offered me part time positions. But, considering my experience with the previous office, I decided to take a job an hour away that was full time. Despite the drive, the job is pretty great. I'm making over 42% more per day compared to the other job and seeing a full schedule of patients 4 days/week! The staff is really great, too, as is the other doctor I'm working with. He loves oral surgery and endodontics so he's been showing me a lot of stuff I wouldn't normally be doing. I actually look forward to going to work and doing what I love doing and have been trained to do. And, working full time is really great for keeping Aaron on a schedule.

I hope this video makes up for the lack of posts. It's Aaron trying to feed himself. He's actually doing a pretty good job!

Giggles

Thought you might like this. It's a few seconds of Aaron laughing, which is the cutest thing ever, before taking a serious turn and trying to eat his bib!

Forget Cooing...

Aaron now likes to screeeeaaammmm....


And, he has a new girlfriend. She's French and her name is Sophie. Aaron can't get enough of her long legs!

Tomorrow we have a doctors appointment at DHMC. It'll be our monthly weigh-in (last month, Aaron was 11 lbs 2oz) as well as our 2nd round of Synagis and regular flu shots. I will update tomorrow with our new weight. Here's to chubby!!

Special Treat

Two posts in one day! Aaron's been doing this for a while now but this is the first time we've had our camera ready.
