Trip to Pittsburg







Went to Pittsburg today to see Aunt Beth and Uncle Bill. Even got to see Uncle Lloyd. After eating lunch at the Mall Deli we saw a Safety Car Show and Aidan got to sit in a helicopter. He also got to run around the yard for a while before it started to rain. Pretty cool day!

Tandem Rides




We've managed to get out on the tandem a few times already this summer. The other night was our longest ride, we were out for an entire hour. We rode down to the Tuesday night Crit races so Aidan could cheer on the bikers. He just loves to see the pack of bikers zoom by...and yells "Bikey"! Then we took the trails down through Shawnee Mission Park. Lots of animals were out. We saw deer, Aidan just goes "maaaa" at them. Not sure if he thinks they might be goats?? We saw a few bunnies and some "doggles"(dogs)! Hard to believe he is already 20 months old. His bike jersey barely fits!!

Smelling the flowers!!




We went to visit my sister today!! Aidan loves the outdoors and that is one thing there is plenty of there!! The rain cleared off and we went out to blow bubbles and smell the flowers. I wish it would have been a little more sunny and that we could have stayed longer. I can't wait for summer!!

First Haircut!!




Aidan had his first haircut today!! We took him to a fun little place where you get to sit in cars while you get your hair cut. He sat in a yellow Hummer. He was fine until she put the cape on him!! Apparently getting a haircut is a little more tramatic then I thought. He survived!! I didn't get a good picture of him afterwards, but here are a few...one before and two during!!

Grease Monkey!!!




Today Aidan met his two uncles and his cousin. They were working on Brandon's car and they let him play with all the greasy tools and car parts. He was in heaven running around the parking lot, being outdoors and getting dirty! He is all boy!!! It was great for me to watch him hanging with the boys!

Buckey


26 years ago my nephew stood on Buckey!! Here is Aidan doing the same thing! At first he was happy to just stand up on him and then he would clap his hands. Now, he has learned that Buckey can be used as a step ladder to get to things that weren't available to him before. Gives me a heart attack!

Aidan and Brendan


Thought this was too cute not to post. Here is Aidan with his pal Brendan. He is one of the little guys I watch. Aidan is 15 months old and Brendan is 10 months old. It's crazy to see how much bigger Aidan is with only a five month difference! Brendan is a really skinny little guy to begin with but you can really see it next to Aidan. Brendan will be leaving me in March. His mom is having another baby and so she is planning to stay at home with the both of them! I am still trying to find a replacement for him. Say a little prayer for me that I find some one soon!!!
