Or something like that. It's November, also known as National Blog Posting Month, also known as "post every day during the month of November." So here I go. Four days late.
We had a fun weekend with Oma, Ompa and Tori here to celebrate Aidan's birthday as well as Halloween. Aidan enjoyed opening ALL of his presents (for which we are slowly working on thank you notes) and building dozens (or so it seemed) of new Lego sets. We had cupcakes with Lego logos on them, but Aidan didn't eat any!! He shares his dad's lack of a sweet tooth.
For Halloween, Henry was a dinosaur, Aidan a storm trooper, and Owen a clone trooper. Henry clearly didn't know what was going on. As we left our house, he scooped up a bunch of candy from our bowl. When we got to our neighbor's, he tried to hand them candy as he said "Trick or treat!" So funny. Daddy ended up taking the bigger boys around the whole block while Henry, Ompa and I stayed on our street.
Sunday was Aidan's birthday. He opened our gifts and then in the afternoon, we had an enormous kid party at the nature center nearby. We had a sunny and moderately warm day for it. I made a cake (with help from Tori and my mom) in the shape of a fort. It turned out really well, and was a hit with all the kids. We hiked and had smores at the party, and played games and yes, opened more presents. It's Thursday, and he still hasn't played with all his new stuff.
