Family Time

My mom & dad came to visit this last week...
and it was so much fun!!!
I wish we could see them more often!
But we were so glad to see them!
There are a lot of pictures with this one...again!

My sister is moving back to Indiana and getting rid of all the stuff her kids have outgrown
and I am all too happy to take it off her hands!
She gave us this little rocking chair...which is a huge hit!!!
She just wouldn't get out of it!

Easter morning the Easter Bunny had put eggs all over the house!
He brought a basket of stuff too...
but the eggs were the top priority of course!
Most of the eggs were pretty easy to find!

Things went pretty smoothly until she discovered that there was candy in the eggs!


A little purse that was in her basket
Daddy trying to steal some of her candy!
We went up to my sister's house that afternoon and had dinner and a big egg hunt with all the kids!

We went shopping with my parents...and played games...and Aiden got to boss them around!
On Wednesday my sister came down and we went to the park & had lunch.
Then we went to Cabelas...I saw them feed the fish for the first time...it was pretty cool!
On Thursday Trenton was home too...and we took Aiden to HeeHaw Farm's Spring Fling!
It was so cute!
And there was a lot for kids to do!
Kids 3 and under were free and everyone else was $5

These were actually boards for the bean bag throw...but she kept sticking her face thru!

They had a few of these rubber horse swings...she was a big fan!
Only mama Debbie was allowed to push her!

Bopa Steve watching her jump!
This was a trampoline (covered in hay)...it was fun too...as long as there weren't too many kids on it!

She thinks we really need a tractor at our house!

There is a little area where you can pet the animals.
We got to pet goats, pigs, bunnies, chickens & chicks, a donkey...
the baby goats were her favorite though!
She could hold them!

They were so darn cute!

Daddy took Aiden down one of the slides!

there was a tractor pulling this little train...
again Trenton was a good sport...
Aiden said it was too bumpy though!

Our cute little family on the hay ride!

mama and bopa on the hayride!

Aiden & daddy had a sand fight in the sand box!

She rode a pony for the first time...

I guess they are better from a distance!
She did so well though!
We went to the Kangaroo Zoo for the first time...that is a pretty cool place! Aiden is still a little young though! She didn't love most of it!
My parents left early Saturday morning to head back to Indiana.
We were sad to see them go!
Aiden asked for them all day!

This weekend I got out the bins of baby clothes and started sorting!
Aiden found some of the baby gowns and decided she needed to wear one...
I was all too happy to oblige!!!
I thought it was hilarious!
I really couldn't believe we got it on her!

Aunt Mandy sent out a lot of stuff too!
Some clothes and books...but most importantly...
roller skates!

We opened them immediately!
And she can do it herself on the carpet...
but dad, mama and bopa all took turns pushing her thru the house!


Aunt Christy also gave her some purple snow pants that she should fit into in the next year or so. She wants to put them on everyday! Today she watched cartoons in them...I think she looks like grimace...from McDonald's.

She is HILARIOUS! I love it!

20 Week Ultrasound!!!

We went to the dr. yesterday. And we got to have another ultrasound!
The baby was very cooperative and we found out that...

IT'S A GIRL!!!

We are very excited...and now just have to come up with another name!
So now all the fun stuff starts...getting the room ready...shopping!
(although it is nice that we already have so much girl stuff!!!)
And Aiden is going to have a little sister! And everything else looks great!

Just wanted to share the great news!

Big Girl!

This has been a long time coming...but today we got Aiden's big girl bed!!!
She hasn't really gotten out of it all day!
I hope she is still so excited about it tonight when it is time to sleep!
It is this beautiful cherry finish daybed...that I LOVE!!!
We have it turned the other way right now...
so the side is like a railing and she won't fall out!

















And the sheets are so cute with her purple walls!
Believe it or not she had all of these animals and
blankets in her crib too! I don't know how she fit!


I know I shouldn't let her jump on the bed...
but she just looked so cute!!!

Pony Rides





















A few weeks ago my sister Christy gave Aiden
a little horse that her kids had outgrown.
SHE LOVES IT!!!
















She wants absolutely no one else to touch it!















We'll have to work on that...but I am glad she likes it!

Snow Day!!!

It was 54 degrees yesterday morning...
and by yesterday afternoon it was 32 and snowing!
And this morning...we woke up to this...
I was so bummed!
The weather has been so nice the last week or so...
and I was really hoping we were getting closer to Spring!
While we ate breakfast we watched the horses in the pasture behind our house roll around in the snow...and Aiden decided she wanted to play outside too!
and since I am hoping this is our last "big" snow of the year...
we decided that was a great idea!

Aiden had to be retucked a few times!
but she didn't mind!

Aunt Christy gave her a new sled for Christmas...
it was a pretty good time!
once she figured out she needed to hold on!

It was still snowing...so it was hard to look up for the camera!

Sliding down the stairs...always a good time!

She is wearing my gloves here...
Jada (the dog) kept stealing hers...
and throwing them around...
cause they were covered in snow!
she went thru 3 pairs in an hour and a half!
I had to take a break...and Jada decided her feet were cold...
so she just climbed on up and made herself comfortable!

Aiden pulling the sled all by herself...
which was pretty impressive...
since the snow was up to her knees!
We decided to make a snowman....
Aiden wanted a girl snowman...
so...there you go!
It really was such a fun morning!
I guess I was glad for the snow after all!

And here is a little bit of her sledding...she wiped out quite a bit!!!
This is the best video I could get! She still had a great time though!
