Happy birthday, Aaden!

On Tuesday, our sweet boy turned 4 years old.  I can hardly believe it!  He is so precious, funny, full of personality, and definitely has his daddy's stubborn side.  He is a joy and keeps us on our toes.  If I could describe him in one way it would be that he's 100% boy!  Loves to get rough, play outside, get dirty, and learn about trucks.

I kept them both at home on Tuesday.  We waited until T got home from work and headed to Tupelo!  We had been telling him that we had a surprise.  We pulled into Chuck E Cheese and he was in heaven.  My aunt and Gingaw met us there and he had the best time.  I didn't take any pictures because I didn't want to have to carry my good camera around.

We left Chuck E Cheese and went to eat at Mt. Fugi.  We had a sweet waiter named Jerry.  He was so good with Aaden!

Here he is trying to blow out his sparkler (impossible!).  Once the fire went out, he went to town on his ice cream.

Jerry suggested that Aaden try "Japanese soda".  We had no idea what that was, but Aaden was willing to try it! It has a little glass ball in there that you push down to release all the fizz.  Aaden thought it was awesome.  Side note- we let him drink TWO of these.  I though we were going to be in big trouble, but realized they are only 70 calories a piece.  I refused to look at the sugar content.. :-/

Pushing the ball down into his soda

Aaden adores his Peepaw. 

Please, please excuse the no makeup, hair in a pony tail look.  Savannah decided she only wanted to take a 30 minute nap and cried the whole time I was taking a shower and trying to get ready.  I'm not sure what was going on with little sister that day, but she wasn't in the best mood.  Maybe teeth?

Pure sweetness.  They adore each other.

Only picture I could get of Tyler and Aaden.  Aaden was tired of taking pictures and wanted to go to Toy's R Us.  My dad let him pick out a toy there since his party isn't for another week and a half.  He picked out a Roary the Racing Car and some crazy candy thing that has an airplane that lights up and blows a little fan.  He doesn't even realize there's candy in there!  Just loves that little airplane.

We headed home after a quick trip to Toys R Us.  Sav slept the whole way back and we all crashed as soon as we walked in the door.  Aaden wanted to get his new Roary out, but I told him Roary was too tired.  Where do you think Roary ended up?  Yes folks, in the bed with us! 

He had such a fun birthday, and can't wait until his swim party next Saturday!

Happy birthday sweet boy!  We love you to the moon and back!
