High Five

This video clip is from this past weekend of Chris walking and Aiden going along for the ride!

One of the highlights of my week so far has been watching the boys work so hard to mimic everything we do. This morning Chris and Aiden were "sniffing" a candle with me and while they were making the right "sniff sounds", Aiden had his ear to the candle and Chris had his mouth! The wonderful world of exploration! I also enjoyed watching Aiden wave and clap to himself when he caught his reflection in the rear view mirror in the car. So sweet and innocent! Christopher has been trying very hard to copy sounds and words tat he hears and is working on "ouch." He currently laughs when its repeated to him! This week the boys went to playschool on Monday and again today. Monday afternoon we met our friends Mathieu and Caroline for a walk in Agawam. It had been a few weeks since we had seen them so it was nice to catch up. Grammie & Grandpa Hopkins came over afterward and brought some yummy pizza for dinner and we had a little post Mother's Day get together. The boys LOVED showing off their new walking skills! I then headed out to meet Harper Bourbeau Chotkowski for the first time with my friend Leeanne. She is indeed perfect in every way and Heather and Mike look great and have the new parent glow! Yesterday Grammie Hopkins came over to spend some time with Aiden and Chris. I ran some errands and the boys enjoyed playing with Grammie & getting some fresh air too! Last night Megan, Tanya and I had our second get together to visit and discuss the book we are reading about obtaining a good balance in your life. As always, it was nice to see them and so nice to get out to have such great company. Today is a rainy day of nothing but comfy clothes, play school in the morning and cuddling inside all afternoon! What could be better????
