Dedication, Grandparents, and Zoo-What a BUSY weekend:)

What a fun weekend we had here in the Rogers household! On Friday, Grandma and Grandpa Rogers showed up for a weekend visit to see little Aiden. Luckily, they got to see him before bedtime after Chris picked them up from LaGuardia and braved rush hour traffic on a Friday evening (I don't envy him one bit!).
On Saturday, we woke up to a sick little baby...runny nose, watery eyes, fussiness=no fun! Although he was sick, we decided to check out the Bridgeport Zoo since it is only six miles away from our house. This was Aiden's first adventure to a zoo...we got to see tigers, prairie dogs, monkeys, and much more. We also tried a new burger joint here in Fairfield for dinner...Flipside Burgers:) It was yummy and there's nothing better then a cheeseburger with cheese fries. Can you tell that I love cheese (it must be that Molly, my roommate who hailed from Wisconsin, rubbed off on me?) The evening topped off with Chris and his parents rooting on the awesome Hawkeyes while I tried for hours to get our sick little baby to bed-finally...he ended up falling asleep with Mama in bed!
Aiden was dedicated at church this past Sunday. It was a short, but sweet, part of the service where Aiden of course, decided to make his presence known on stage (a few fussy cries and a few monkey calls)! We are thankful for Chris' parents being here to be a part of the special day.
On Monday, we ventured out on a nice hike where Chris got an extra workout in by carrying Aiden around. We also had lunch at a local deli followed by some shopping and relaxing around the house-everyone was tired from the busy weekend!!
All ready to go to his dedication!
