Their trucks

Over the past couple of months, Evan has been harassing Ethan by hugging him over and over just because it annoys him. Poor Ethan would complain and pout but Evan was relentless. Of course, now the tables have turned and Ethan is the ‘predator.’ They do love working together to ‘clean’ things. In the video below, they clean the mower by putting dirt on it and then taking it off. The end result was two very dirty little boys who needed baths. See the video below to watch the twins in action.

Aiden had some good days and some bad one. He is in very good spirits as he get his fill of E&E. The first thing he says each morning: “go see Ethie, Evan.”

All to himself

Not McQueen!

Things are heating up with both the weather and the boys energy levels! Keeping up with these three is quite a task given their active little minds and unending energy. Aiden had a rough couple of days with an increase in vomiting but is doing well overall.

There is no toy that Aiden loves and adores more than his “McQueen” car. In the video below, Ethan gets a hold of it to Aiden’s dismay. Manish eventually had to intervene to get “McQueen” back. Ethan then scolds Aiden for trying to hug him and the twins rough house (like only boys can).

 

Happy Memorial Day

Quick update. Aiden is doing well (still vomits but not as much) and is in love with Evan. Everything is “Evan” or “go see Evan.” Additionally, he is a mimic. Manish called him that the other day and now he runs around and says “mimic…mimic.”

Below is some video of Evan showing off for Aiden and the boys attempting to eat soup in a civilized manner (certainly a ‘youtube’ moment).

Together Again

Aiden simply can’t get enough of his brothers. The first thing he says when he wakes up is “go see Evan…go see Ethey.” When they are at school/daycare, he asks for them all day and is thrilled when they are back home.

Of course, the twins don’t pay as much attention to him. They do their own thing with each other and Aiden sort of follows them around. Even so, he is glad to be with them. In fact, he often holds and hugs them and they start to whine about it. It is so cute as all he wants is them.

Since he got home, he has done quite well. There are still some bad days where he throws up a handful of times but then there have also been consecutive days where he does not throw up at all.

With summer almost here it is heating up outside and soon the boys will out in the pool. They can’t wait!

They love their firehats

I tried a new hairstyle on Aiden

A neighbor of ours has some dogs and the boys enjoyed being entertained

I was worried they might get scared

That is, that the dogs might get scared

Of course these two loved it!

Now, its his turn

Ethan, please wear your own shoes!

He just had a haircut a couple week ago

The ‘trips’ are back together

Like old times

The Return

After 114 days, Aiden (and Hannah) are finally back home!

All things considered, he is doing quite well. Although he still vomits, it seems to be less than he previously did. Of course, time will tell how well he does so please continue to keep him in your prayers!

Below are a couple of videos. The first is Ethan’s reaction when he sees Hannah (in slow motion). The second is of Aiden ‘dancing’ just before he left Boston.
