So... what's been going on lately? Aidan and I have been busy since getting back from our trip in Wiscinsin. I held an open house for my Tastefully Simple business and made a spread bigger than some people do at Thanksgiving! It was much easier and faster than it looked though (that's what Tastefully Simple food is all about of course) and stirred up some more business for myself. Aidan has been sick for a couple weeks with a cold but it ended up also being a combination of teething because I noticed today that he has 2 TEETH on the bottom!! He's not been sleeping very well lately and he's been kind of restless and making all kinds of noises in his sleep.
I watched a little boy that's a friend of mine for a week who's having trouble with her nanny, he's been over before, he and Aidan had a lot of fun playing together last week. We've been outside alot and we hit up the park too. Aidan's been "cruising" and pushing toys while walking a lot more now but hasn't tried to take a step on his own, he's not quite that far yet.
As for me I've got a part-time job! I'm so excited about it too. It's with the local county Child Care Services. I'm an Early Childhood Specialist and will be going into home child care centers to monitor their programs and make sure they are doing what they agreed to in their contract with the county. This organization refers parents to child care facilities that they have contracts with to uphold certain standards and supports and helps these providers maintain a quality learning environment. You can learn more about them here... http://owccs.org
Aidan is staying with my neighbor and friend Melissa, who runs a child care facility out of her home, while I'm at work. He has so much fun playing with and being around the other kids and I still get to stay home with him 2 days a week!
Now I'm preparing for October, big month for us! Scott's coming home and a Halloween/1st birthday party!!!
