Orlando!!

We are long overdue for an update. Things are going well and Aidan is growing so fast. He feels like a brick when we pick him up yet he's just over 10 pounds...or so I think, he hasn't been weighed in a couple of weeks. Highlights of the past few weeks include Aidan learning how to smile and our trip to Orlando.
Aidan learned how to smile about 2 weeks ago and it is awesome. I woke up one morning after a rough night and he was just smiling away at me. It is hard to be frustrated with such a cute baby. (It is really hard to get a good picture of him smiling because usually smiling comes with lots of hand waving and body movement)
Last week David, Aidan and I went to Orlando for a few days just before David had a conference there. We figured since he was going anyway we'd make it a vacation.We were up for an adventure with a 2 1/2 month old baby. So we left Friday and then I flew back with Aidan on Wednesday and David stayed for his conference and came back Friday night. We went to Gatorland, Epcot center and drove to Daytona beach. Here are some pictures from our trip.
Here he is on the plane. He was great and slept the whole time, waking up every couple of hours to sleep and then going right back to sleep.
Here we are at Gatorland. It was a beautiful day and we got to see all the famous events such as Gator Jumping and Gator wrestling. It was actually more fun that either of us imagined.We went to Epcot center and had a great time going on rides and just walking around and seeing all the exhibits. Aidan spent most of his time in the carrier and loved it. He slept pretty much all day.Here we are at Daytona beach. We were pretty disappointed with the beach and it was really windy so we didn't spend too much time here.
When we were at the Disney store we found this stuffed animal Squirt which cracked us up. We sometimes call Aidan a turtle when he moves his head and neck around. We couldn't resist a picture.
