Up, Up & Away!

Aiden made the 4th flight of his seven and a half month life to celebrate his first Thanksgiving in NY. He likes the window seat on the planes, just like his momma.

I will say that, at least for Aiden, the younger he was, the more he (we?) enjoyed the flights (i.e. slept on the plane). These days he wants to be moving about, and a tiny seat on a plane with the headrest of the person in front of you leaning back in your face does not allow for much movement. (Ryan and I especially experienced this on the return flight when we were on attempt 768 to get "situated" and spilled hot tea all over us. No worries....bebe was spared. This was less than an hour in to the 3.5 hour flight so we spent the rest of the ride a little tanner and damper. Lovely.) We are on flight sabbatical until May so hopefully A does not go through withdrawals.

While in NY we spent quality time with the fam, and Aiden enjoyed playing with his cousins (despite the fact his face may say otherwise....he LOVES those two!).

 

He also enjoyed his first round of Christmas gifts, which included a Radio Flyer, and his feet almost touch the ground when he sits on it.

Grandma got him an adorable puffer coat (have I ever mentioned that I love most things puffer). To celebrate the season, we reenacted the Randy look from the Christmas Story. That or Aiden just looks like he's stuck like Randy when he's wearing his jacket....
