Aidan's pictures

Happy belated Valentine's Day! We had a busy one, especially since Aidan was on a sugar high most of the day. There is no telling what all he ate at school that day but he was going non-stop all afternoon and night. We continued the sugar high with 2 cupcakes at church that night but he somehow managed to fall asleep later. We had a full week with school, church, going to Pops and Namaws', Nan coming for a visit and a friend coming over to play. Derek and I and the boys watched a movie, Open Season, Friday night. It was a funny movie. Derek and Asher fell asleep but Aidan and I enjoyed it. Aidan and Pops spent Saturday together and they went to see the model train club display. They go so often that I think the men that work on the model train know Pops and Aidan by name. Derek and Aidan went and played laser tag Sunday afternoon with some friends and it seemed to be a success. Derek was very proud of himself for being ranked number 1 on the 9 person team but sweet Aidan was number 9. It didn't seem to bother him a bit but he did get a few shoots in on his daddy! Derek and Aidan have also been spending time playing a Playstation game. It is a game based on Star Wars but the characters are made of legos. It's a great game for a younger child, or a mother that isn't very good at video games. Aidan and I were on the same playing level last week but after watching him and Derek play tonight I've decided I need to practice a bit more.

We spent all day playing with friends. This morning we went to a friend's house for a play group and then a friend came over this afternoon to play. Aidan will get a good nights sleep tonight. Asher started eating baby food this weekend, he LOVES applesauce and pears but isn't so fond of sweet potatoes. I can't seem to put the pears and applesauce in his mouth fast enough, he is a very opinionated eater. I'll have to work in a few more foods this week.

Enjoy the pictures, Aidan was the photographer. The thing Nan is holding was a gift from our friend Liz. It's like a chia pet and Aidan has really enjoyed watering it and checking on the "hair" growth each day, thanks Liz!
