Aaron--15 months

It is hard to believe that in two days Aaron will be 15 months old! He is so fun right now.

Have I mentioned he is the best baby ever? He rarely cries, goes to bed/nap quickly, loves to give hugs and kisses, and is happy to play on his own or with his brothers and sister. When I exercise I take him down to the basement with me and he is perfectly content to play on his own for 45 minutes. Sometimes he comes over and gets on his knees and waves his arms and bounces while I exercise--it is pretty cute.
He loves to eat when he can feed himself. Normally he won't make a mess--doesn't like foods with sauces, so I had to take this picture when I saw him. He loves just about everything--vegetables, meatballs, chicken, bread, grapes. His absolute favorite food is graham crackers...I think he could eat a box a day if I let him!
He is fully walking now--and very proud of himself. He loves to explore and will walk around the house with the cutest smile on his face--so happy that he can walk. A lot of times he will giggle as he walks, he is so happy about it. He also loves to play in the basement with the big kids--anytime they go down he tries to go with them. When I let him, he can get down the stairs faster than any of the other kids (I think he is afraid I will change my mind!)
All the kids help me with Aaron--they all love him so much. Alex and Aaron are at home together all day and Alex is such a sweet boy to play with Aaron and share toys with him.

I love this picture that Matt took of Alex Saturday

Melinda, that first picture is of Aaron, right? He looks SO much like Alex there! Great post - I agree that Aaron is one of the happiest babies I know :)

You didn't mention that he has his Grandma wrapped around his little finger. What a sweet boy he is. Cute pictures.
