A visit from Rosa a-yi! :)

Aaron gets a special visit from Rosa A-yi, who he finally met for the very first time! Aaron had a wonderful time this weekend. Thank you Rosa A-yi for coming to see us and for taking some great pics!! :) We can't wait to see you in Houston soon!

Aaron's first look at Rosa A-yi as we pick her up from the airport!

Back at CPOG!!

Patiently waiting for food.

Little goofball "drinks" from the wrong end of his sippy cup.

Big hug from Rosa A-yi!

Aaron finally gets a taste! What will the verdict be...??

He checks out the goods first...

...and takes a tentative bite...

...looks like we have a new CPOG fan! :)

Food coma...!

The next morning, Aaron shows off his standing and "cruising" skills for Rosa A-yi!

After making it down the length of the futon... a congratulatory hug from Rosa A-yi!

Aaron waves to Rosa A-yi!! (Rosa A-yi was able to get Aaron to wave several times
this morning!)

Is this another...?

Yay! Another wave!!

Aaron waves at Daddy! (Aaron apparently waves at everyone except Mommy, who still
happily applauds him from afar!)

One last pic... good-bye Rosa A-yi! We miss you already! Can't wait to see you in six weeks!!

Funny Sleeper

Here are some funny recent sleeping pics of Aaron. He sleeps in all different positions now... mostly on his tummy.

Bottom in air.

Indian style.

Nap time for Aaron ...

... and nap time for Daddy...!

Nap time for Aaron and Rosa A-yi!

More pics from Rosa A-yi's visit to come...!

Teeth!

Andrew finally captured pictures of Aaron's elusive teeth!

Little Happy Hippo :)

Four teeth!

Mango Mouth

Walking down Michigan Avenue today... perfect weather! ... but someone is too tired to enjoy it :)

Recent Pics

We haven't been taking as many pics of the little guy as we should... but here are a few recent photos!

Casual :) - Here is Aaron riding on his rocking horse (one-handed!) from Yigong and Yima.

Aaron is playing with his new toy! It's fun to watch him figure out the different activities,
he's getting pretty good at "putting the toys away" in one of the houses.

Here is Aaron talking with Doreen A-yi on the phone tonight! He also somehow three-way dialed a stranger during our conversation, but I hung up before anyone answered :P





And finally... this is Aaron "cruising" earlier tonight. Please be patient, it's a 3 minute video :) He's still getting the hang of it! Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Aaron - 9 months!

Our little guy is now 9 months old! (last week) Believe it or not, he is now in the 50% for both weight and height! He is a healthy 20 lbs 4 oz and a little over 28 inches! Yay Aaron!

Aaron is now adept at army crawling, starting to "cruise" (video to come), pulling himself up to standing with furniture, sticks out his tongue all the time (see second picture) and has four teeth! He has two bottom teeth and two top teeth, though not the ones located in the middle...instead he has the two next to where his middle teeth should be :) He also enjoys finger walking and licking mom and dad.

Yu Can Crawl!

And without further ado...
