Aiden Discovers Oreos...

At the ripe old age of 1, he already knows how to open the Oreo and lick out the filling! I think it is in kids DNA. 1. Love Mac&Cheese 2. Instinctively know how to eat Oreo cookie.

His face says it all.

Memorial Day (a little late)

For Memorial Day this year, we had to adapt our holiday a little bit. Since Dillon started a new job (yea!) he has to work on holidays (boo!) Normally we would have done something as a family but this year I did a little cookout for him on Thursday night with brats and good home made ice cream so he didn't feel completely left out!

Aiden and I headed to granny's house! We always have so much fun! Aiden likes to see all of the animals and be (surprise, surprise) outside! We got a little blow up splash pad for him and he loves it! Especially when cousin Camden played too!

She doesn't look like she ever gets in trouble huh?!

They played in the shade of this one little tree. I think there should be a petition to rename Tamaha to Flies. The number of flies to people is about 1 billion to one. No lie. Luckily not here though.

The Moon was out that day too!

Aiden is ready to go out and play. He even has all the gear on his head!

It looked like so much fun I had to put my feet in it too!

Baby Marley was lookin pretty cute watching the big kids play! It was the hottest Memorial Day I have seen in a while! Maybe I just thought I was ready for summer!

Work, work, work...

Aiden is a very good helper lately! He loves to have little jobs to feel like he helps mom and dad! Dillon gladly takes the help! Especially when it has to do with the laundry!

DIllon hands the clothes to Aiden, and Aiden puts them in the dryer!

He even picks up the clothes that get dropped on the floor and stuff them in with the rest!

Early Morning Mowing...

Aiden loves to be outside so much but we always had to go inside when Dillon would mow. Until now. Before Aiden was too scared to get anywhere near the lawnmower. Here are the boys!

Aiden finally wanted to help mow the lawn! He helped his dad push the lawnmower with the middle bar! Notice that we were already outside so early he still has jammers on!

Going around again!

Here is my new vegetable table Dillon built for me. Since Penny has eaten half of the vegetable plants, we had to replace them and make sure they were out of reach!

She has already eaten the house plant I just bought! I set it outside for a few minutes to let it enjoy some of the beautiful sunshine and Penny had it in pieces in no time! So much for trying to be nice to houseplants!

A Little Delayed...

We went out for dinner to celebrate Mother's Day with Dillon's parents, Mary and Rob! We went to Abuelo's which is always good. Aiden got to sit in between his grandparents and color!

Take me out to the ballgame...

A few weeks ago, we went to go watch the Drillers play ball at Oneok field! It's always a question mark about how little ones will react to situations like this. They might not like the crowds or the loud cheers. Here is the view from our seats! Glad Tulsa finally offers a place to go with cool atmosphere!

Aiden loved the game! He looked at all of the people!

He cheered on the team!

He loved the whole experience! Except for Hornsby! He had one eye on the big blue bull all night. He wasn't going to let him get to close!

Go Team!

Aiden and Pappy and Mimi!

More Outside...

Back outside like every sunny day. If the sun is shining, Aiden's booty is out there. Today we played with bubbles. He liked to squeeze the button and just hold it down forever! Penny liked to chase them and try to eat them!

Aiden holding down the button.

Penny was having so much fun chasing the bubbles all over the yard!

This picture was supposed to just be of Aiden but some yellow girl snuck in the frame trying to snap at a bi bubble! I couldn't have got that shot if I tried!
