The day has finally come...

Aidan was complaining the other day because he was so bored and had nothing to do. I sarcastically suggested, "Hey, wanna try mowing the lawn?" I did not expect him to jump up and actually go for it with a smile.


He went around the yard a few times just pushing it before actually mowing it. We had to make sure he had the strength to push it. That he does! Yes, his method is still not the most efficient but he gets the job done. And , the pride he felt when he was done...absolutely priceless! You can just imagine my excitement that I get to finally share this chore with him.


He can't wait to do it again!
(Now Hunter's complaining that I won't let him mow the lawn yet.)

In Your Face

Jaren was our MC for the night at our Church Pie Party. All his hard work and this is the thanks he gets!?




Let's not upstage Aidan who entered in the Children's Pie Eating Contest.
He won this round! He raced against two adults at the end for the grand prize (mind you, Aidan didn't have a whole pie--just a quarter). He did finish 2nd though! And when we got home he says to me, "Mmmm, I'm still hungry." Typical Aidan....


Have I ever seen so much pie in one place?! Don't recall Robyn actually eating any pie. She just ate the whipped topping off the tops of the pieces and I got what was left over (yum, yum).
