Yay for you, Aidan!\u00a0 Happy Birthday!\u00a0 Aidan turned four this year with a birthday like none other.\u00a0 As a joint gift to both Alexander and Aidan, (and supposedly in lieu of presents… ahem…) we jaunted off for a whirlwind weekend at Disneyland in California.\u00a0 With one specific destination in mind, Aidan spent his birthDAY in Cars Land<\/a> at Disney’s California Adventure.\u00a0 It’s place where all of his favorite little toys come to life in a movie-made-real destination that lit up these little boys’ hearts.\u00a0 Aidan has been in love with these friendly little vehicles since before he was two<\/a> as we’d received several gifts and books with the Pixar Cars.\u00a0 Still, they didn’t really understand the whole story until as part of their birthday gift they got to watch the actual Cars Movie (the original), and everything kindof ‘clicked’ with all the magic Disney does so well.\u00a0 Ever since the trip, our home has been a spattering of Cars games and set-ups.\u00a0 Currently (early June) Alex has a ‘Cars Land’ set-up in the basement with all the characters and locations created out of various papers and props for everyone to enjoy– though he is definitely the one enjoying all the setting- up!\u00a0 Aidan is all Cars Lego right now, and is working hard doing extra chores to save money for Lego Mack.\u00a0 I’ve never seen him work so diligently– today my car was thoroughly vacuumed out and is amazingly crumb free!!!!<\/p>\n

But we just love watching Aidan come into his own.\u00a0 His conversations are growing in leaps and bounds, and he’s got new tricks like one-foot-hop-twists to show us everyday.\u00a0 He’s got a run to challenge even Muma, and can zoom, zoom, zoom on that new McQueen bike.\u00a0 He’s starting to sound out and spot words in the stories we read, and can sometimes quite surprise us in answering Alexander’s questions in school.\u00a0 We’re so enjoying watching our little Aidan become a big boy.\u00a0 You are such a treasure, Aidan!\u00a0 What a good work the Lord is doing in you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
