Jerel-Kristin-Aiden-Jade-Kasen-Cora: Aiden 41 months

Aiden:

Clothes: 4T- Size 6

Shoes: Just bought him size 10 but they are really big. Hoping they will last. He is more like a size 8.

Undies: We have had in in night undies (pull ups) at night since we started potty training him. He has never been a bed wetter but every now and then he wouldn't make it and he would pee in his night undies. For the past oh I have lost track probably since May he hasn't been having accidents in his night undies any more. (Or thats when i started noticing he was staying dry) The week we moved to Utah I had him sleep in just undies and he peed the bed. I haven't tried since this last week. He has slept in undies for a full week and hasn't had any accidents! Good job Aiden! No more night undies!!!

Fav food: Grapes, Strawberries, Oatmeal, Pb&J, Chicken nuggets, Chicken roll ups, Pizza, Eclairs, Birthday cake, cookies, Granola bars, M&M's Peez candy: We call them turtle treats cause they go in his TMNT Peez, Bananas, Cheese, Smoothies: he calls them Smoobies.

Fav Movies/TV: Super hero shoes on netflix, Leap frog, Little Einstein's, Dino Trux, Magic School bus.

Funny phrases he says: We had tried teaching him not to say: Move or get out of my way when he wants us to move. Instead we have him say excuse me, so now if he wants our attention and we aren't giving it to him he will say: "Excuse me Mommy!" "So much bigger."-when something is really big. "I'm busy."- when he doesn't want to do something. "Whats next?"-when he doesn't know what to say next in his prayer. "Where's my friends go?"-when we go to the park and his friends aren't there. "Super fast!"- he got that off of Little Einstein's and says it when he is going really fast on his bike or running. "My Hunter, My Jaxon." he really likes his cousin Hunter McBride and cousin Jaxon Vincent.

Naps: Unfortunately for me he has stopped taking naps. I would much rather him sleep at night than during the days so...

Fav things to do:

To run and play outside & playing with the kids around our apt. He really is drawn to older kids and plays best with those who are at least a year older than him.
Riding his bike although we haven't let him ride it outside while living here. We only have a parking lot and the cars are going too fast to let him ride on the side walks.
Playing with his blocks & train.
Playing on the iPad and picking what netflix show to watch... he has way too much screen time.
Play with Jade although he still gets really excited and gets too rough with her sometimes.

Playing with his cousin Porter. He had fun playing with pretend hand cuffs.

Flying a kite with Papa Al.

Cute baby Walter.

Aiden decided to take some pictures with my phone: he says, "I take your picture?"

So excited to eat brownies on a Sunday after noon.

Playing Lego's at Grandma Achatz's house.

Aiden and his "noculars"

Splashing Jade... She actually is laughing too.

"You draw a map Mommy!" so he could trace it with his finger.

How we get him to eat his corn, by telling him it will make Grandma Neesey and Papa Al sad if he didn't eat their corn & telling him he will get big strong muscles.

Riding the Cat at Grandma & Grandpa Nielsen's house.

Sunday naps with Daddy.

We went to Hyrum Dam with Ash & John and Alan & Janese. This is the only pic I got of Aiden playing at the Dam cause he was on the boat the entire time. He got to ride on the tube with Jerel and loved it. He didn't want on at first but really liked it and then didn't want off.
