I have a little canister vacuum that I use to vacuum all of my hard floor. This thing is one of my best friends. We call him Blue Thunder (guess who made up that name and every other nickname in our family). Blue Thunder and I meet up everyday sometimes more then once. Lately the best part about my time with Old Blue is not my crumb free floors (which is still very nice) but my eager little helper. As soon as the roar of that vacuum starts Aiden comes running (okay crawling but really fast) from where ever he is. He grabs on to the back of that canister and pushs Blue all around the kitchen. As we turn corners Aiden laughs all the way. At the end when I am putting him away or leaving him out (whats the point I will probably have to vacuum again in a couple of hours) Aiden gives Blue a couple kisses. Now I actually wait until the little guy is awake before I vacuum. It has actually made a fairly enjoyable chore into a highlight of my day and I am sure his too.
Here are the decorations; simple and sweet
I had to throw in a picture of the Gator with his later gator shirtJust woke up from a nap and still groggy.
This was Aiden's own little cake
Decided to make little cupcakes instead of big cake
"Hum don't really know how to approach this."
This really is about as messy as I get.
It goes way to fast (March 2009)

Here are some of my favorite (and only) sledding photos of the season courtesy of my friend Sheila. Enjoy!
I'm in trouble here with my little Brianna. Where am I going wrong? She told me this morning that she had the most wonderful dream last night. She said that she was dating a boy WHAAAAT! This child thinks about dating and boyfriends and is only 6 years old. Does that make sense to anyone? I think the only solution here is no more Barbie movies.
Another year of school. The summer was great (will blog about it soon) and we had alot of fun but by the last week we were ready to get back
Lizzie is in 2nd grade and likes her teacher. Her creek is Bear Creek (Each grade has a creek name)

Good Luck Girls with the new school year. 2009/2010 school year here we come
I feel like things are not to often about you. Lots of attention is gravitated towards your sister or your baby brother. But what about you. You have such a fun, spunky, sassy attitude that you need to be spotlighted.
