Jerel-Kristin-Aiden-Jade-Kasen-Cora: Aiden 37 months

Aiden

Weight: 40lbs

Shoes size: 8

Clothes: 4t-5t

Favorite food: Strawberries, cheese cake, Pb&J, cheetos, yogurt, cereal, cooked carrots, hamburgers & fries... so he is pretty picky!

Funny things he says: "20 more mins!"- he says as he points to my clock on the wall. I like to warn him he has x amount of time before bed time or before he has to be done playing the iPad. "Leave me alone, I sad!" he says when he get into trouble, shouldn't be doing something or gets his feeling hurt. "I superman!" he says this and then runs really fast around the room. We have to be really careful what we say around him be cause he listens very closely especially with what Jerel says. I have been working with him on his F words. He has a hard time saying words that start with the letter f but can say them just fine if they end in f- for ex: he say fish - pish or bish but he can off. He can also say F and the sound just fine. I read that it is pretty normal at this age and just something to work on.

He really likes to play with his fire engine play-doh set he got for his birthday.

He is constantly building new tracks and doing his own thing with his train tracks.

Finger dancing. Silly boy.

Gold fish are really good when Daddy feeds them to you!

Some times nap time can't come early enough. Usually he will just say: Mommy, i need a nap!

Blowing raspberries on Daddy's tummy is a fun game both Aiden and Jade like to play.

Aiden is getting really good at riding his strider bike. He can lift his feet and balance for a long time while riding now. What a great bike!

This is a fun matching game he got for his birthday that he likes. I helps them learn to spell.

He loves to wear his baby sunglasses which are way too small. Silly.

Dancing with the stars with Jade. I don't know how many times he asked me to reply the dance so he could dance over and over again.

Second visit to the dentist for a family cleaning. I was really worried that one of his front teeth died after he fell and hurt it because it had turned grey. Over the last few weeks it has lightened up and the dentist said that it is fine, his teeth look good. Aiden liked going for rides and playing with the water pick. He how ever got really shy when the dentist came in and wouldn't let look at him. He turned his whole body away from him and was being so funny. He did let him count his teeth and they looked good.

Aiden likes to play peek-a-boo with Jade in our laundry cupboards.

Strolling around Walmart in the biggest cart there.

Cleanest way for Aiden to play with his kinectic sand.. :) Look how big my little boy has gotten. His feet hang way low from the foot rest! Haha

Aiden insisted on playing the iPad while on our bed... luckily she kept on sleeping for another hour or so.

This little boy has gone 4 weeks of staying dry at night and not having any accidents.... then mommy thought we would try doing just undies and that back fired... he peed that night and then we went right back to night undies. Thats ok... Jerel says he felt "free"...

Playing in my pantry is the best... not... These two are trouble. Aiden loves to run around chasing and being chased by Jade. They are constantly laughing and squealing their high pitched screams. Aiden gets a little too hyper and too rough sometimes but he sure does love playing with Jade. He is really good about sharing with her and trading if he wants something she has...

He loves his suckers :)

Ryan and Heather moved from Vermont to Rock springs Wy and drove the long way there. They stopped for a night and left in the morning. The kids sure had fun playing together even if it was only a short visit. We will look forward to seeing them more when we move back to utah in July! We hadn't seen them since Jade was blessed in March of 2014!
