Birthday Celebrations and More!!...

Last Saturday we had Jake's "friends" bday party!! It was loads of fun and VERY EASY for me ;) This coming week we have more birthday celebrating to do. John's dad and step-mom are coming into town for a visit... we are actually getting Aidan baptized on Sunday ;) On Friday Jake's preschool is having a Halloween parade/party.. we will also be celebrating his birthday with the rest of his school buddies!! CAN NOT wait to see all the kids in their costumes!!! Jake will be Blue's Clues this year!! Then on his actual birthday we will go trick or treating in town and we will give him his presents ;) then on Sunday the rest of the family will celebrate!! Plus celebrate Aidan's baptism!!! All in all it will be a crazy busy weekend but ALL worth it for our babies!! Here are some pics of his party from last Saturday!!

For You Lorrie ;)

A family friend ours asked why I hadn't uploaded new pics onto our blog.. she thought I ate bon bons and watched t.v all day :) LOL!!... well here you go Lorrie!! our sweet babies!!! Jake is thriving at preschool!! and making lots of new friends!!!! He's 2nd birthday is coming up at the end of the month!! I can't believe he will be 2!!! He's quite the character. He's got such a sweet and strong personality... I love it that he call me "Ma" or "Mom" like he's already 16 years old.. the days of "Momma" and "Mommy" are few and far between!! it's really hilarious to hear a 2 year old shout out "Ma" at the supermarket!! We are having his birthday party with all his friends on the 24th.. We are having it at a gymboree-like place.. it's called stay-and-play... the place sets up for you, provides any and everything you can need and the BEST part is the fact that it's not at my house :) On his actual birthday, Halloween, after trick or treating with his daddy, grampy and uncles we will have a couple of his close buddies over the cupcakes... then the following day John's mom, my parents and brother/sister-in-law and his cousins will be here to celebrate at his "family" bday party!! BOY he's a lucky little dude!!

Aidan is now 6 weeks old!! WOW!!! he's a little chunk of love :) He's had acid reflux since he was 3 weeks old.. we are now controlling it with prevacid... poor baby got that gene from the Slocum side!!! All in all we are well and getting a good routine down!! Hope all are well and I will try to be more aware to update the blog!!!
