The next day we got reacquainted. I was amazed at how big my boy has gotten!

Later in the day we played outside. Aidan showed me how he can push his truck around now.

I've been given two weeks off since I got home so we've been doing all kinds of fun things. A couple days later we went to the park and had a picnic. Afterwards, we fed the ducks.

This past weekend Heather and I went to Biloxi for a night while the neighbor watched Aidan. It was great to whisk Heather away and have some adult time away to get reunited. Unfortunately I took the directions down wrong and we were late leaving the house which resulted in us missing our massage appointment. Then we both didn't feel well after dinner. Finally, we lost our (temporary) winnings from the blackjack table on the craps table.
It just wasn't meant to be...
After picking Aidan up when we got home though, we went out and picked up our pumpkins for Halloween this year. Most of them were bigger than Aidan!

I like this one!
Last night we went to the neighbors and had some chili and carved Aidan's pumpkin. He wasn't really too keen on getting the "pumpkin guts" on his hands.

So I've had a great time in my two weeks off. I go back to work on Wednesday. We've got a couple parties to go to this weekend and then the following weekend is Aidan's big first birthday!
It sure has been a crazy year!!
One final thing. I wanted to share a video of Aidan fighting with one of his teddy bears. Or, more accurately, it could be described as one of his teddy bears fighting Aidan. Either way, it's fun!
