The Polson Family

AYDAN MYCHAL POLSON


Ohhhh.....the joys of being a mommy and a daddy! We love Aydan so much! He tests our patience and our energy, but it's so much fun watching him grow! Good thing we're young...so we can keep up with him! He is now 19 months, almost 20 months old. I would describe his personality as busy, but mellow. He's not real particular about anything, but he sure is everywhere! He is just smart as can be, and I think part of it is because he is so curious. He likes to figure things out and is a very quick learner. For example his first steps were at 9 months, and was walking smoothly at 10 months. We have to be careful of the things we do around him. He is talking more and more, and it is cool not only for the obvious reasons but now I can actually know exactly what he wants because he tells me. Some of his words are potty, hi, hello, bye bye, what's that, I want that, clock, yeah, no, mommy, daddy, nama(grandma), napa(grandpa), whow, see ya, sippy, cookie, cracker, cheese, thankyou, please, toes, nose, hair, eyes, teeth, hands, shoes, hot, pillow, blanky, binki, toy, shhhh, baby, don't, car, keys, dog....and lots more but I could go on more than I already have. The most recent acheivement is going on the potty. That's right....he goes on the potty. (see potty post) He is learning to stay out of stuff, like the dishwasher and mommy and daddy's special things. (Like the TV) He is starting to sit down and do more activities with me like coloring, painting, and all sorts of crafts. I am very excited for the holidays coming up. This year I think he will enjoy it more. I am going to have to come up with some killer plans to keep Aydan busy during the cold winter days. We have been outside almost everyday this summer. I can't keep him inside. Who could blame him though? First thing we have to do is buy him a snow suit and some boots! I don't know what I'm going to do though...I hate the cold!
