Wow. Twenty-three months old already?!?! My little baby is turning into such a big boy...
I thought I'd take a minute and list some of Aidan's favorite things:
Foods -- I'd have to say that carrot cake is definitely number one on Aidan's list of favorite foods. Every time we go to the grocery store and we walk through the bakery section, he points out the carrot cake (and Daddy usually gives in and buys it for him). He also loves Goldfish crackers, they would probably be number two on the list. And, rounding out the top three would definitely be hot dogs. I swear, he'd eat hot dogs for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if we let him!
Toys -- Coloring and painting is Aidan's passion in life. And he's very, very good about only coloring on the paper. Just in case, though, we always use washable crayons, markers, and paint. He also loves shape sorters - he'll name the shape (and usually the color, too) and then put it in the correct spot. He amazes me with how smart he is!
What Makes Him Laugh -- Blowing raspberries. He thinks it's hysterical when he can blow raspberries on my belly (on his "shistas"). He also loves to jump and dance, especially on his bed or ours.
Nevermind the exhaustion, the stress, the mayhem, raising a toddler is actually more fun than I could have ever imagined. Aidan is funny is so many ways, on purpose or not, and he makes me laugh at times when I really shouldn't. This is such a good thing - so good for the soul.
He breathes life into the most lifeless of situations. Without trying, he reminds us how to have fun; reminds us it's not all death and taxes. And for that, I am forever grateful. I look forward to see what he has in store for us as we work our way towards his big two year birthday!
