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!

Catching up with Aiden

So my VERY independent daughter likes very much to pick out her own clothes...
we were getting ready to go to the store yesterday...
I told her to put on her shoes and get her coat...
she came out of her room like this...


the boots were a gift...and I think they are adorable but they are still too big...
the hat is really just for dress up...
but she said she needed it because it was windy outside!
and Trenton told her she could wear it!

she makes me laugh!

the hat didn't even make it to the car though!
she took it off to put her hood up...
it was cold!
right now Aiden's bathroom is torn apart...
while we are replacing the floor...
(it is coming along though)
so right now she gets to take a bath every day in my big tub!
SHE LOVES IT!
She swims around...

we could put like 6 kids in there!
I hope it isn't too difficult of a transition when hers is ready!

She got a hold of the camera and took this herself!

we were playing babies & princesses...
and I was struck by how big she is!
time is just going so fast!
we play Elefun a lot...
although we don't really catch many butterflies!

She keeps us very busy!
She loves to read and we go to the library regularly!
She loves Dora and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.
She can now name all of the Disney princesses!
She LOVES to do anything outside!
We just can't get enough of her!
