The locals think that we had a bad summer. In truth, I think they just like to complain about the weather. If you look through the photos, we spent a great deal of time outside walking with Aldus. And we should know. We found out that it was one of the things that would calm him down in his first few weeks.

Even now, a sunny day and a walk in the stroller will drop him into a nice long nap.

It is also fun to watch how much more space he takes in the stroller. I remember when we first placed Aldus in the stroller. He seemed to have enough room to spin around. Now, he is definitely filling it up.
