Aiden's first bath at home with Dad

We seem to be accumulating lots of cute pictures so I thought I would post a few updates of Aiden at 4 and 5 days old. We opened a few presents for Luke and Liam last night in anticipation of their upcoming second birthday on January 11th. We all agreed that it really does not matter what is inside the package, they just enjoyed ripping into it and pretty much went crazy when the packages came out of the bag. Aiden continues to be a relatively easy and predictable baby. He is sleeping well and eating well. We are so thankful that at this point in time he has not been fussy or difficult to figure out (at least not yet). He goes with the flow and even allows his brothers to take his pacifier in and out. Usually, if one of the boys wants Aiden to have his pacifier then the other one wants to pull it out of his mouth or if one of them wants Aiden to swing or listen to music in his bouncy seat, then the other one wants to turn off the music. That is pretty much the way it goes with two year olds, I guess.

I know I also mentioned previously that Aiden was the first baby born in 2010 at the new hospital which opened on Dec. 30th. Below is a link to an article about Aiden. The pictures on the internet are reversed, but the ones appearing in the newspaper are correct. Aiden is the one that is naked (on top picture).
