Aidan turned 9 months old a couple of weeks ago!  Last month he celebrated his first Halloween, started eating all regular table food, moved to the older babies' classroom at school, grew 4 new teeth, started scooting around and trying to crawl, got to meet Aunt Brennan for the first time, and got to see GiGi and Daideo and Sean.  It was an eventful month!
