Paradise Park

Meme and I took Aidan to Paradise Park in Lee's Summit yesterday. It was so much fun and Aidan had a total blast! We can't wait to go back again soon....

Lake Florida

We went to Lake Florida last weekend in Spicer, Minnesota. Mike's aunt and uncle have a beautiful lake cabin there and his parents just bought a cabin on the lake too so we will be spending lots of time up there. Aidan absolutely loved his first time at the lake. He was a little hesitant of the sand at first but it didn't take him long to dive in and start playing. He also loved the swing and the paddle boat. Mike took him for an hour and half long ride on the paddle boat on Saturday! He didn't want to get off - he loves steering. He also got to drive the boat with Teresa. He ended up falling asleep on her lap while driving. He was all bent over sleeping but still had a death grip on the steering wheel! One of my favorite pictures is the one where he is sitting with all the kids on the boat. I had just put on his life jacket for the first time and he was a little unsure of what was going on. He also might not have been able to breathe! :)
He is definitely becoming more and more of a little boy. He lets you know what he wants and doesn't want. He is just so much fun and we are loving every minute we spend with him!

Round 2 of Washington DC pics

Washington DC

Just a warning.... There are a lot of pictures that I am posting so I apologize ahead of time. We had a great time in DC this past weekend with Kelli, Adam, and Brian. We went to the zoo, the aquarium, several museums, the White House, etc. Aidan got to go on his first metro ride in DC. Luckily we got off the red line 30 minutes before two trains collided. Aidan had a wonderful time. He is exhausted from the trip and was hard to wake up this morning! We leave for South Dakota and Minnesota tomorrow. Busy busy summer times! Enjoy the pics!

It's a GIRL!!!

We had our sonogram this afternoon and found out that baby #2 is going to be a girl! Aidan has already bought her several cute outfits! She didn't cooperate very much for the pictures but we have a few that I will post. We are off to DC tomorrow-- hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

Blowing Kisses

So... Aidan has a few fun new tricks that he does. He likes to blow kisses and act like a frog. If you aks him if he is a frog, he starts sticking his tongue in and out as if he is catching flies. It is really hilarious! Mike also took a cute picture of Aidan and Ranger looking out the front door. We are going to DC this weekend and Sioux Falls the following weekend so we should have a lot of pictures to post soon. And this Friday we find out if Aidan is going to have a little brother or little sister. I will keep you all posted....

New Pics

I am trying to be better about taking pics. Here are a few from the weekend. We had a picnic with a bunch of other kids on Friday, went to the Heart Walk on Saturday morning, and then to Deanna Rose Farmstead on Sunday. Busy weekend! Aidan loves being outside and absolutely LOVES talking to the goats and cows at the Farmstead. I will have to get it on video because it is just too funny not to share. Enjoy the pics!
