Aiden's Visit to Idaho

Family Weekend-Aiden, our nephew's visit to Idaho

We had a great family weekend beginning on Friday evening after work. We went to my parents and had a great time spending time with Aiden. HE IS SO ADORABLE. I have to tell you a few of the cute things he said and did.....

First of all, his cookies and cream milkshake mustache.....he kept calling it oatmeal, don't ask me where he got that. He is so busy playing that he hates to eat his dinner so the milkshake was his treat for eating all of his dinner. Grandma and Grandpa sure spoil him...wait we all do!

Secondly, he loves playing hide and go seek. The first thing he said to me when we walked in on Friday was "Aunt Breah, let's play hide and seek." It's so cute, how could you say no? He would play for hours and hours. He is getting much better at not telling the person finding us where we are. The cutest thing ever was one time he wanted to hide in Brookee's room under the covers. So up the stairs we went to Brookee's room under the covers. We were laying there waiting for someone to come and find us and he looked over at me and said Breah...I luv you. I then could tell he was kinda scared so I said do you want to turn the light on and he said yes with that cute Texas accent that he has. It pretty much melts your heart!

On Friday I decided that it would be super fun for Aiden and I to make sugar cookies and play in the dough. We made stars, snowmen, hearts, and flowers. He was dying to eat some of the dough and he would sneak a little bit of the dough each time I turned my back to get a batch of cookies out of the oven. Then grandma made the frosting for us and he only wanted it to be white....but we did spice it up a bit and make green, white, and turquoise. These cookies aren't helping me with my New Years Resolutions but they were well worth it. Aiden would take one cookie at a time downstairs to the rest of the family but usually ate half of it by the time he made it downstairs to share.

Then came Saturday night. We went to my parents house again along with the grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins and had a fun little party. Aiden was doing his tricks, flips, walking on the ceiling, and of course entertaining us all. He is in the process of being potty trained and went in the big boy potty for aunt Breah two times in a row. Cookies do the trick and work as great bribery. We learned some valuable wisdom from Grandma Glenna about many various things and then ended the night with an Apples to Apples game. This was such a fun weekend and we just love having Aiden be with us. Thanks to Bryan and Jackie for bringing Aiden to see us in Twin Falls. He is such a sweet little boy with an amazing personality. When you throw in his Texas accent, I think that he is one of the cutest little boys ever. Now we are looking forward to our weekend when Sean, Leslie, and Treb arrive.
