Aiden's Birthday Party

Today was Aiden's party at Jump Planet. We all had a great time bouncing and sliding! Aiden had so much fun with all of his friends and it was nice to be able to chat with the mommies! Of course great cake made by Grandma. Great party- poor Tia slept through the whole thing!

I just LOVE this picture! The look on Aiden's face is priceless, he's having SO much fun, just so happy- love it!

Birthday Celebrations

Aiden woke up around 6:45 this morning and came into our bed to snuggle. Daddy was teasing saying we would have his birthday tomorrow. Aiden said he wanted his birthday to start "now!". He chose to have donuts in bed instead of cake. After donuts, he opened his presents and then he was very excited to go to school. We brought chocolate cupcakes and all of his friends sang happy birthday to him and he got to wear a special birthday hat. Grandma and Grandpa brought his favorite pizza over for lunch after school and he got to open more presents! Daddy is bringing his favorite meal home for dinner. Tomorrow is his party at Jump Planet. He has had a great day and is sure that now that he is 5 he is much taller and even wondered if school this morning was going to be the same school (or his new kindergarten). Five really changes you :) He told me yesterday that he couldn't control himself, but that maybe tomorrow when he was 5 he would be able to "because 5 year old boys can control themselves, not 4 year old boys"!!

Happy Birthday Aiden!

I can't believe my boy is 5 today! Time goes by so fast... The past couple of days he has been wanting to hear the story of his birth. It sure has brought all the memories back and makes me a little sad. But here he is today, 5 and a big, bright boy. He amazes me with his intelligence and wit. Like Tanya and Brandi have said, he is the soul of some old, wise man reincarnated! I love you Aiden, Happy Birthday!

Family Visit!

This weekend Uncle Davey, Auntie Caro, Uncle Scotty and Uncle Ethan all came to visit. We had a great time and just wish it didn't go by so fast... We celebrated Dave and Caro's engagement with a party at Mom and Dad's Saturday night. It was a good time, good food and good catching up with family and friends. Sunday morning we all went to brunch in Kirkland and walked down to the lake so Aiden could see the "dirty light".

I wonder if Dave has bought his Rock Band yet?? He and Jen would definitely duke it out for the mic! Slipper Bitches and the B-Robes in the HOUSE!!! Miss you all!
