First Swim of the Year at the Whyte House

Aiden smelling the flowers at our house... Last weekend we had a two day visit from Ja and Heidi. Lots of playtime for the kids and hang out time for Rena, Heidi and myself. The little ones all spent time in the pool w/Papa...and Justin. Papa talked Justin into getting in the 78 degree pool, telling him it was really "nice". Not so much. The kids ignored the coldness and swam for about an hour. They had a blast. Here are some pics from the weekend.
Jus and Emily...Emily jumping to Daddy.
The girls all got flip flops from Granny and Papa...Emily's matched her dress perfectly! She loves her "diva flip flops", as Papa calls them.
Heidi and Jason...my favorite pic!
Emily and Chloe getting worn out.
Aiden with his swimming buddy.
Justin...we got a new camera and I had to test it out...shows off his blue eyes perfectly!
Aunt Heidi with Emily....and Rena and I in the reflection of the window.

Just a little cheeser.

Aiden's 2nd b-day and Mother's Day pictures

I realized I never posted pics of Aiden's birthday...though there really aren't many. I wasn't able to take pics at his party, but I got a couple of him on his actual birthday. We also missed Mother's Day photos, so here is everything.
My mom in 1985.
My sister, Mary Anne, brother, James, new baby sister, Carrie and me...holding my baby. Emily sleeps with it now. 1984
Carrie and I in '84...one of our favorite pictures.
Aiden on the potty. He doesn't do much, but chant "potty".
Emily and Aiden's Mother's Day pic that we gave our mom's.
You can really see Emily's Sleeping Beauty tattoos...I hate tattoos.
Aiden visiting his Papa on his bday...found the cousins toys.
My big 2 year old! He was more excited about the Sesame Street characters on the cake than opening his presents.
