Beach

My favorite thing about summer is having all the time in the world to spend with Aiden.  We have had SO much fun this summer, and I fear he's going to have a hard time adjusting when I go back to work next week.  Until then, we've been soaking up as much summer as possible.  Thankfully, Jim's boss is awesome and flexible and family-oriented, so Jim has been able to join us on many day excursions, such as to the beach last week.

Aiden had SO much fun at the beach.  He has been asking to go back ever since, as if the beach were as convenient a trip as Target!  Jim and I enjoyed watching Aiden experience the beach for his first time.  He is at such an amazing age.  He holds conversations with us, makes us laugh, and makes us fall more in love with him every day.  How could you not want to spend every possible minute with this little guy?!  I feel so blessed to have a job that gives me summers off to enjoy it with my son.  Remind me of that when things start to get stressful during the school year!

Farm Fair

and just for fun and cuteness....Farm Fair last year

Brandywine Zoo with Aunt Lisa

The Brandywine Zoo is the perfect destination spot to meet Aunt Lisa; halfway between both of our houses!  Unfortunately I think Aiden will be too big for this small zoo next summer.  It only took us a half hour to see the whole zoo.  But for $5/person you can't beat it!

and just for fun, same fountain last year....look how pudgy and cute!!!

Dutch Wonderland

I'm way behind on posting here!  We went to Dutch Wonderland a few weeks ago for the first time, and Aiden had a blast.  He lasted for over 8 hours, and we only left because Jim had to go into work to take care of an issue.

I'm too lazy to upload all the pictures, so click on this link to see them!
