Pointing finally

I have been waiting for Aaron to start pointing since he was 11 months as I read that pointing is one of the milestones that a one year old should be doing. I waited and waited all he did was pointing with his whole frisk or all his fingers (which is pretty funny though). I kept pointing at different things and hoped that he would point with his finger, but for some reason he never did until today.  I was pointing at the different animals in the book and magically Aaron started pointing at them too.  Words cannot describe how excited I was when I saw that, but I wasn't sure if it was just a single incident or he really did master pointing.  Later today Aaron is still pointing at his doggie and other stuff with the same finger and I know he finally is pointing. :D Another important milestone reached and it's such a relief.

First choo choo train ride

Aaron went for his first choo choo train ride today at the Roaring Camp Railroads in Felton.  He had a blast even though he was exhausted by the time he got off the train.  We picked the Redwood Forest steam train ride and he loved it.  Aaron was so curious about everything and was standing up pretty much the entire ride, which was pretty impressive when the ride lasted over an hour.

It is so much fun bringing Aaron to do different things as he's getting older and more active, but he definitely is not ready to drop his morning nap yet. Perhaps we can do even more in a few more months? :)
