Aldo is now crawling AND standing!!

Within the last 24 hours Aldo has learned how to stand on his own. Getting down from a standing position is another story!

Gibb's Visit

Gibb had to fly into the states to be in a wedding two weekends ago and we were lucky enough to see him briefly before he went to Ohio. I was unable to take off work and so Gibb wanting to spend the maximum time with Aldo braved his first real babysitting experience!! He did a great job. Gibb said it was not too bad except for getting out of the door to go for a walk- that by the time he packed Aldo up with winter gear and in the stroller and then got himself ready- he was exhausted! haa haa. His brief stay was awesome and we look forward to seeing him and hopefully Marina again soon! We love you!!

Our Charlie Brown Tree! Merry Christmas!
