Totally forgot this!

Here's a video of Aiden playing in the snow!

Last couple from our snow day

It's ow 7 PM ad the sow is meltig. It was a beautiful day, Aide loved playig outside, ad the suset made for a perfect ed.

Unrelated to all that - Aide pulled our "N" key off the keyboard today. (It still works, obviously :) But we have to push the rubber part from under the key to type it)

All in all, it was a great day. I wish Matt didn't have to work tomorrow, but he got a call and doesn't have to come in until later in the morning, so at least he can sleep in a bit. And he did get Aiden out in the snow once more but I was out getting dinner so no pics were taken.


Oh, THERE'S the Airborne tower!!! I can't believe it was so snowy we couldn't see it earlier.


I hope everyone who got or is getting snow stayed and stays safe!

SNOW!!!!!

When the weatherman said we'd be getting some snow, we never expected this!!!!


We got Aiden out before it had accumulated much:


Mowing the snow...



And here's our backyard at about 2 PM:






Our patio furniture...


Usually you can see the Airborne jump towers between those trees!!!


And here's representation of the accumulation throughout the day:





Of course, we got a little silly since it was so cold outside and Aiden didn't want to stay out for longer than 5 minutes...
It's just now 3:30, and we'll probably let Aiden play outside once more before it gets dark, so more pictures should be coming!!

Reason #1,052 NOT to have another baby

I took Aiden to the library for story time today, which he LOVED. A friend was there with her almost 4-year-old and her 2-week-old baby. We were the last ones in the room since we were gabbing and didn't realize everyone had left, and her eldest was trying to escape to get to the computers. She ran after him, grabbing the diaper bag on her way out. I gathered up my bag and told Aiden we were leaving, then looked to the back of the room where the baby was sleeping away in his car seat. I looked through the windows to see my friend helping her eldest get onto the computers, and I figured she'd come back in a second to get the baby. I waited...she didn't come back...so I took Aiden out where she was and whispered that the baby was in the room. Her eyes became saucers and she ran to get him. I just shook my head at Aiden and we laughed when she came back. She said "I would've remembered him before we left, I swear!". But hey, before you go judging her, remember she just had that kid 2 WEEKS AGO. I'm sure we've all lost things in less time. I jest :) She's a great mom and I think she's amazing (and a little crazy) for having another bambino. Kudos to all you moms with more than 1 kiddo!

Aiden's first painting

I call it "technicolor toddler".

Some cuteness...

Cutest. Army boots. Ever.

Look at me!


Now I have to untie them to take them off.


Seriously, how adorable are these last couple of posts! I feel like I should catch him wearing more of Daddy's Army gear and make a scrapbook of just those pics.


Heeeeyyy....that's a good idea. :)
