Hello everyone and welcome back to the Aiden blog! Things here have been as hectic as always so let's play a little bit of catch up! Aiden's summer has started off full of activities. We enrolled him in swim lessons with his buddy Destiny (the one checking out his booty lol) and he loves them! I can't even begin to describe how hilarious he is in the water. He has no quams what-so-ever about jumping in by himself and is somewhat ok with the going under water that they do every class. Overall the class was such a success that he's doing a second session of the lessons with daddy! 
Since life has been so crazy between summer school, moving into the house and all that jazz, I've tried my hardest to keep Aiden fully entertained. Last week we ventured off to the zoo with grandma and got to do some very exciting things! They had several booths set up so that the kids could feed certain animals, and we were happy to participate! All together we fed some very pretty and aggressive birds (they stole our cup of nector lol) and a giraffe.
As the Fourth of July approached we were a little concerned how our own little firecracker would do with all the noise, as last year it really freaked him out! However, this year we've learned that the louder things are the happier Aiden is, therefore the Fourth was fine. Mom, Erik and I took Aiden to the Balloon Fiesta Park to watch the firework display and afterwards he kept telling us, "Fireworks, booom! Pop, pop!" 
Along with that these summer monsoons have been histerical! I can't even describe to you that look of sheer joy he gets when he hears thunder. He runs to the closest window of the house and yells, "BOOOM. THUNDER!" In his Aiden growly voice that is hilarious. I'm so glad that those things excite him instead of scaring him. 
Well so far this summer we've got a pretty good start on fun activities with the little dude. It's just so nice to give him the chance to explore life to it's fullest! I know this is a rather short blog and I have way more to say, especially with his birthday just a couple of days away and my over emotional state regarding that, and his sudden attitude swith (he's TWO AHHH) but we'll save it for a blog next week when I have birthday pictures to post! Love to all!
