Little Buddies

We were thrilled to finally meet Roger and Emily's wonderful little boy Ryan. Aidan was quite excited too. During the visit, Aidan rolled from his belly to his back for the first (at least witnessed by Rob).

Pleased with Pleasanton

In early March, we returned to the Bay Area to introduce the little guy to the rest of the family. Here's Aidan mugging for the camera with his cousin Andrew, Auntie Helen and Om Ayin (aka Uncle Indra).

Got Milk? part II

After over a month, we finally decided that breastfeeding just wasn't working out. While we do believe that "breast is best", we did find the significant resistance from the medical community to using formula. We think most of the pressure we felt came from the purest of intentions. Still, breastfeeding is not for everyone. Thankfully the little guy has adjusted well to the bottle...almost too well.

Animal Style

Here's Aidan at 5 weeks with his friends (from left to right, clockwise) Pierre, Tweedle Bug, Wakko, Jurgen, Crispin, Emile and Chunky.
