We are beginning to hear this at our house more and more as Aiden’s curiosity grows. Take a look and you’ll see what I mean…. This one is of Aiden after he found Mommy’s make-up bag, the color looks pretty good on him! LOL
These, well they pretty much explain themselves ..... Uh-oh Mommy!! Trying to clean up his mess
I came around the corner just in time to catch the WHOLE thing on film..... How could I be mad? He is just SO cute, and learning about his world by exploring!
Ryann went back to her mommy's yesterday :( Aiden was so sad to see her go, he had a hard time this morning when he walked into her room and she wasn't there. We all loved getting to spend so much time with her. While she was here we had TONS of fun! We played and played and celebrated Courtney's 24th birthday!! Adam and I went out for sushi, YUMMY! I opened my gift through out the weekend. See the cake Adam had made for me, I love angels; so he had them make it into angel wings.
We took the kids to the sprinkler park, they had a blast. We were out there for over 2 hours!!! Who knew this could be so much fun?!
Aiden is talking more and more everyday. He uses sentences most of the time, although sometimes only he knows what he is saying, lol! He can now let us know what song he would like to sing, Row Row your boat - WO, WO, WO or Twinkle Twinkle little Star - He tries SO hard to sing the "up above the world so high" line - TOO CUTE! He is always coming up with something new to surprise us!!!
Not much new to report on Ryann, she still can't quite understand why she didn't really change when she turned 4. Some how she got it in her head that things were going to REALLY be different once she had her birthday!! Ryann will be starting school on the 21st of August. I'll be sure and post some pictures, Adam and I are going to make the haul so that we can be there w/ her on her very fist day of school! It's hard to believe all this is really happening!! They really do grow up WAY to fast :( Hope you're all doing great!
Ryann and Aiden visited the dentist for the first time today. They both did great! The dentist office was wonderful for kids. They had video games in the wall, and a pretty cool play table, beautiful paintings all over the walls, and TV's above the exam chairs! Ryann did great during her x-rays. She had a hard time getting good ones of her back teeth, but it is HARD with that big film thing in your mouth. Aiden is still too young for x-rays. Both kids are brushing really good, so that wasn't an issue. Ryann has one molar that the dentist is keeping her eye on. It is the bottom right one, it's looking slightly discolored. She said her under-bite is pretty bad, but we aren't going to worry with it till her permanent teeth come in, it still has time to correct itself. Aiden's teeth are coming in nicely. All in all it was a GREAT visit! The kids had a great time, and got great reports!!!!! YAY!! Doing so good! My brave little man!!
Aiden has learned how to spell his name! Well almost. He has forgotten that it ends with a N not an I. This was something he picked up on all by himself. He has been "spelling" A-I for a while. Yesterday Ryann spelled his name to him and he spelled it right back to her. I would have thought this was a fluke, but he spelled it to her a dozen times in a row. Today however it ends with an I.... At first I didn't think he really knew what he was doing, but I realized that he has made the connection. Because you can ask him to spell it and he does. Or if he hears you talking about it he'll spell it. Check out our smart little boy
This was taken w/ my phone so it's not the best quality; but you get the idea. For some reason the movement stops, it's probably the site I used to host it... you can still hear it though!
Our little angel is FOUR today! I still can't believe how time has flown by! She is such an amazing little person!! See for yourself how she has grown.... Ryann woke up to find one last birthday surprise waiting for her...................... Think she likes it?!
We're off to see Cars and have lunch before Ryann leaves to spend the weekend with her mommy.
WOW! That pretty much describes Ryann's party! She, as well as the rest of us had an awesome time! I can't imagine her being able to think of one more thing that she could want!! This little girl is VERY loved and it showed. We had a house FULL of people and gifts! Ryann told us a while back that she wanted to have her party at our new house and she wanted a Barbie cake. Well we took that and ran. The house was decorated inside and out w/ everything Barbie. We had the slip and slide out for the big kids and a baby pool for the smaller ones. Then it was inside to open gifs!!!!! She loved everything she got!! Then it was time to make a wish and eat some YUMMY Barbie cake. The kids played and the rest of us sat around and visited. Ryann is so very blessed to have these wonderful people in her life!!! She will officially turn 4 on the 13th. We are going to do a bit more celebrating before she leaves to have another party with her Mommy! Make a wish!! Spoiled!!!!!!!!
Hope you all had a great day! We had a really great time celebrating the 4th. We went to the fireworks show in Southlake, and I must say; this was the BEST fireworks show I think I've ever seen. First we had dinner, and then we walked the shopping center. Got a new table for the entrance hall! Then we sat and waited for the show to start. It was great! Aiden was totally captivated. Every once in a while he would point, but most of the time he sat staring. We will defiantly make this an annual thing.
