I can do it myself Mom!

Last time I took Aiden to the doctor the nurse said she was pop quizzing all the mom's that day and asking what their favorite thing about being a mom was. That's a VERY hard question but I told her that at the top of my list is the thrill of watching Aiden learn all the little tiny things that probably only I notice. That very day, while we were running errands, he insisted on being a big boy and held his 8 ounce bottle to his mouth all by himself for a good portion of the time.

I'm sure to anyone else this is no big deal but I was laughing nearly the whole time because he was so proud of himself and he looked so OLD and MATURE to me.
