aiden has company


Aiden invited his buddy Ryan over today for some outdoor fun. We set up a little kiddie pool for them and they had the time of their lives.


Here's Aiden showing Ryan how to jump off the slide into the water.

Aiden is the guy that finds alternate uses for things. A slide? Let's see if it will work better as jumping platform. A dump truck? Lets see if it will work as a skateboard. A golf cart? Let me see if I can use it to dirt and rocks across the yard.


Aiden graciously let his buddy borrow a swimsuit. He also shared all of his other toys and showed Ryan all around the yard including the vegetable garden. It was too bad the two turtles we found in our pool (big pool) had taken off. Aiden really wanted to show Ryan his new found pets.

The fun then moved to the playground. After the playground we had a nice outdoor pizza lunch, then back to the kiddie pool, then back inside to watch Bob the Builder, then they played at the train table while they snacked. After snacks they played in Aiden's playroom....yes, the fun went on and on. The were both very sad when it came time for Ryan to go home. Ryan's mommy and I promised we'd have them over again soon.


Here's Sky enjoying a nice berry snack while the boys play in the pool.

  1. Fresh berries...I'm there! Isn't it nice Sky to have a peaceful moment without a big brother bugging you? Relax and enjoy the few second of peace.

    Ryan looks like a great friend Aiden. He's into everything right along with you. What great fun to someone you size and age to run, jump and laugh with. I hope you slept well after all that good exercise. I'm yawning just looking at the pictures.

  2. Sky, you are such a good eater and it is so great that your Mommy isn't like so other Mommies I know that give their children very unhealthy snacks. I bet you had a good time watching those boys play and helping your Mommy. I really, really like your little pool, it has a slide, what fun you guys must have. Aiden, I know your Mommy and Daddy were very proud of you for being such a good friend to Ryan and playing together all day without any troubles to contend with. You are such a great guy!!
