Aidric loves company

Since birth Aidric (and Mommy) have had a string of visitors dropping in to tell Aidric how adorable he is and to help mommy deal with His Highness.



Many photos have been taken, here are some of Aidric and his adoring public.





Aidric's first visitor was his sister. She tried to take him home with her. Aidric adored her and I caught them whispering together several times. I just know that J was filling him in on all the things that drive mommy crazy. The two of them plotting against me and getting that brother/sister bond going.




Maggie came to say hello and...





...she brought Vincent with her. He was really, truly afraid to hold Aidric, but offered to teach him the finer points of rugby when he's older.





Grandma Rosella came for two weeks at the end of February. We dragged her away from Florida to the cold south of France to be with us. It was fun to have her around. Aidric enjoyed every moment of the attention and mommy appreciated the company.




Paula came by to meet Aidric and he fell absolutely in love with her. He couldn't take his eyes off of her even when we dragged him away from her, he continued to follow her with his eyes. S thinks it was Aidric's first crush, I think he was just drawn to the contrast of her dark hair and light skin; he still loves mommy best.




Mita came in mid March for a month of total spoiling. Aidric visited the doctor while she was here and was prodded and measured. By mid March he had gained 4 lbs. and grown 3 inches.

Mita brought along...



...Aunt Charlotte. Aunt Charlotte was great for horsey rides and rocking Aidric to sleep and taking care of the daily exercise sessions.

We visited a few sights in France and we went to Andorra. In the middle of the visit Mita and Aunt Charlotte went to Rome for a few days. They went home this morning and boy do we miss them. There is no one there to pick Aidric up at the first sound of a whimper and he's a little ticked about that. It'll be a few days of adjustment, at least I hope it's only a few days.




Daddy came home from two weeks in the US to find that baby 'Cal' was bigger and more alert than when he'd left. Aidric was so happy to see dad and enjoyed some quality time with him.




Currently accepting applications for position of spoiler in chief sooo...who's next?
