Aiden and Jayden

Holy Crap!

So you all saw the video below with Aiden repeating Steve to spell his name. Cute, hey? Well yesterday Aiden and I were driving home from "school" and Aiden kept saying, "Eeee." Then he said, "Mama? Eeee." I asked him if he wanted to spell his name and he said yes. Usually this means we say a letter and he repeats us. Yesterday he said, "A" and I repeated him with, "A." Then he said, "I" and I said, "I". He said, "D" and I said, "D." Aiden said, "E" and I repeated him and then he said, "N" and I almost drove off the road and hit a mailbox! HE SPELLED HIS FRICKIN' NAME BY HIMSELF!!!! I don't think anyone believed me until tonight. I was rocking him before bed and he did it again. I called Steve in and Aiden spelled his name again. Steve grabbed him out of my arms and hugged him in amazement! Spelling his own name at 19 1/2 months...wow.

We were grocery shopping last week and Steve wondered if anyone would recognize Aiden because of his stardom. It was a long-shot, but we're proud parents!

Thank you to Jon Hainstock for taking a great picture of our little guy!
