HAPPY BIRTHDAY AIDEN!!!!!



I can't believe my little boy is 5. I remember so clearly the day we had him. Being in Labor all day while at work. Then coming home about six waiting for Micah to get home and wondering if I should go to the hospital yet the contractions were not quite four minutes apart yet. I'd rather be in my own bed in pain then in the hospital. Finally I couldn't bare it anymore so we finally went and then getting there and all the rooms were taken so they sent me to the closet which had a bed. Then finally getting the epideral after waiting for three hours because it was a busy night and I was like 8 on there list for an epideral and then the needle went up in the wrong place because the guy was so tired I don't think he was focusing so ya I screamed it hurt so bad. He finally got it right and all was well, went to sleep all night then they woke me up, broke my water and half an hour later my beautiful baby boy was born.

Okay I am not going to be so modest but he was so beautiful I could not keep my eyes off him. I could just stare at him for hours just looking at every beautiful feature he had. His skin, his eyes, his little flintstone feet like his daddy, His long eyelashes, his beautiful lips. He was my perfect christmas gift from above. He was supposed to be born on christmas day I'm glad he came early.

He is so full of imagination and very observant he notices everything. He has the best memory he can remember things from three years ago. I seriously have to think hard about what he his talking about then I finally remember. He loves to see how things work and loves to ask tons of questions. Most of the time I don't have the answer but I try. He loves to play with his friends and he makes friends so easy. He is a good big brother when he wants to be. Yes he can also be very stubborn just like his daddy. Not only looks like his dad but they are two peas in a pod. We call him mini micah.

He has been so excited to turn 5 and just could not wait. Today he woke up this morning and he came out of his bedroom just very confused and just stood there looking at his feet and his hands were out in front of him staring at those too. I said are you ok and he just looks at me and said "mom I still feel 4 I haven't grown anymore" it was the funniest thing. I think magically when he woke up he would be bigger. He is such a blessing in our home I could not see my life without my Aiden.

FAVORITES
He loves riding his mustang, riding his bike and he always wears a helmet he is known in our neighborhood as helmet boy he forgets to take it off when he goes to play.
He loves helping especially when it involves tools. He loves teasing his brother. He LOVES the color orange ever since he was 2. He loves icecream, pillsbury crescent rolls, starburst the orange ones, catching bugs and keeping them for days in a jar. He loves going to the park and HE LOVES PLAYING IN THE DIRT with his TRACTORS. He could name every tractor by the time he was three it was amazing. I guess it helps when his dad is in construction.
I LOVE YOU AID...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

I had never heard Aiden's story of how he was born. A closet! A giant needle in the wrong place! But he is a VERY cute boy so I guess it was all worth it.

I love your background. It is so cute! It was fun to see you the other night!
