playdate!

Aidan had his friend Bryson over the other day for a playdate, and to take him for a spin in his Jeep!

They're off!...


Okay, everything is looking alright so far.. but Aidan is starting to drive a little crazy..


Bryson does NOT look like he is having a fun ride!


Apparently, trying to run over Mommy & her friend Danyel is NOT fun to Bryson.. but Aidan thinks it's hilarious!


No one was hurt on the Jeep ride, but Aidan was disappointed when Mommy put an end to the rides when he wouldn't stop running into things.. he is since doing MUCH better, and isn't such a crazy driver!

We can't wait to have another playdate.. I hope Aidan didn't scare Bryson away! :)

*Thanks for the awesome pics Danyel.. I seriously need to get a better camera!*

5 Question Friday!

1. If you could, would you go back to high school? Um, no. I don't think that anyone wants to revisit that weird adolescent time.. at least I don't want to! :)

2. If a genie appeared & granted you two wishes.. what would they be? (and, no saying "more wishes!") Let's see.. first, I would wish for enough money to pay off all of our debt, my family's debt.. and friends too! Debt really stinks, and I will be SO happy to be completely debt free.. someday! Second, I would wish for.. a bigger house! I LOVE living in Tony's childhood home, but I have NO idea how 8 kids fit under this roof.. just to have some extra closet space or another bathroom would be heavenly!

3. What kids show do you secretly like? Ugh.. this is embarrassing, but I LOVE iCarly!
I also have a secret crush on Spencer too. :)

4. What is your beverage of choice? Non-alcoholic: a sugar free vanilla iced coffee from McDonald's..
alcoholic: Captain & Ginger :)

5. What is something that you would change about yourself, or are working to change about yourself? I am trying to eat more sensibly & exercise daily.. it is so hard! I hate to exercise, so just doing that each day is a miracle in itself!

week 41

..almost getting there! :)

5QF.. kinda early!

Thank goodness that Mama M posts a preview to her 5 questions on Thursday nights.. I am gonna be super busy tomorrow & this weekend.. so who knows when I would get around to answering these! (because I know there a a ton of you just dying to read my answers!) hee hee :)



1. What is the first car you owned? I'm gonna go with the first car that I paid for, not that the parents helped get.. it was a Saturn SC2, and I loved it til it started to leak every time it rained! :(

2. What song are you embarrassed to know the lyrics to? Oh geez.. the only song that comes to mind is "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen.. ugh, now I am going to have that song in my head ALL night!

3. Have you ever had stitches? Only when I had my wisdom teeth out.

4. What was your first job? I've already told ya about this one.. working for Parchment Yard & Garden.

5. Who is your favorite Sesame Street character? When I was younger.. Oscar the Grouch! But you know.. sometimes when I watch Sesame Street with Aidan, I realize Oscar is kind of a jerk! I'd have to say my favorite now is Elmo, and that's because he makes Aidan smile :)

picnic

It has been beautiful outside! Aidan & I have been spending a bunch of time outside.. mainly because once he goes out, we can't get him back IN!

So.. we had a picnic!


Aidan loved eating his cheese & crackers alfresco!


He even wanted to share :)


Puff even enjoyed his time outside & came to spend time with us during our picnic too!

Bounceland

On Saturday, Aidan went to Bounceland to celebrate his friend Lily's 2nd birthday! He had so much fun, and most of the pictures I took didn't turn out because he was moving & jumping so fast!


He spent a lot of time in this bounce house.. here he is jumping with Brayden.. love that they are in the exact same pose! :)


I thought that Tony & I would be safe from having to participate, since Aidan didn't like the slides the last time we came.. boy, was I wrong!
We both had to take turns going down the slides with Aidan, he wouldn't stop!


Mommy & Daddy definitely got a good workout that day bouncing around with Aidan!


Last but not least..enjoying some birthday cake!
