BIRTHDAY #2

My husband is amazing. Thank you for another year of fantastic birthday invites, darling! Hope you all can make it!

All the things I've missed talking about since January

 This will be primarily a picture post. After my long absence, I figure it is about time that you all get to see a few pictures. Our move has been successful and we are settling in. Hoping that I will be able to find a job in the fall and we can set out on our own. Enjoy the photos!

Aiden playing outside. She has been loving all the insanely warm weather and lots of gardening. I am pretty sure she is happiest when covered in an inch of dirt.

 I finally broke down and allowed her to go on a boat, safely preserved by an infant life jacket. Yes, I said infant. She is still far too tiny to fit into the smallest of small child life preservers. She LOVES the boat and like to pretend she's in a boat, even when she's not. Her favorite song: Row, Row, Row Your Boat... Who would have thought...

 Here we are at the flower and patio show. We thought that it sounded like so much fun, plus we took my parents. We all had a grand time touring all the awesom exhibits that I now want to exist in my future home.Water coming out of the wall? YES I WANT IT!

 And when there was still snow: Aidie loved to eat icicles. Best winter treats.

 And we had a great time during maple syrup season. We played and drank so much maple syrup water that I think we slept in comas.

 Also, Aiden loves to be up off the ground. In swings, trees, etc. She is officially a big girl swing kid. No more baby swings for her. If it doesn't put her in a precarious enough position, it's not good enough.

 We also got to go to the zoo a couple of weeks ago with my cousin, her husband and their little boy, Iroh. Aiden had so much fun spending time with her cousin, something I did not expect. She was so helpful, helping pick up his sippy cups and patting him on the knee when he was sad. So cute!

 She also LOVES CHOO CHOO TRAIN!
