Grandma's Birthday

A couple of weeks ago, Aidan and I flew down to HB to stay with Mom and Dad for a week to celebrate Mom's birthday. We had a lot of fun playing outside in the garden, petting the doggies, and shopping. The doggies were definitely the highlight of Aidan's week. However, I don't think Aidan was the highlight of the doggies week (especially Jackson). Aidan slept great while we were there, a HUGE answer to prayer, but because of all the excitement he did not eat much. Here, are pics of the trip.

He loved playing the piano, preferring to play it than listen to us play.

If not sleeping or playing with the doggies, Aidan spent most of the time outside. He loves to garden, something I do with him all the time, and Grandma loves to do too!

It was so nice, we filled up this bucket for Aidan to play with and before we knew it he was fully in diaper, clothes and all.

Checking out catalogues with Grandma. His shirt says "Karaoke Kid."

We got to play with Grandpa in the mornings before he went off to the office to do more taxes. Aidan loves talking with Grandpa. He just babbles and babbles like they are carrying on a full conversation.

Right now Aidan is a full on walker. If we are not napping or attemping to eat, we are outside in the garden (read weeding) or sliding down the slide. Aidan preffers not to eat most of the time. It has been a struggle for me to not worry about it and let him work out the food situation. He is a skinny little guy and just prefers to play rather than eat. If you are praying for us, please pray that Trevor and I will be able to relax and not make food an issue. He is a healthy, happy little guy and we need to learn to praise God for his little personality rather than change it.

We love you all and are really looking forward to Easter and celebrating our Risen King with you, whether you are close by or not.
