Tomorrow is Aiden's 4th birthday! However, Micah has to go out of town for a conference...again...but everyone in the program goes, so there's not much of a choice. He'll be back late on Friday, but is on call, so we won't really see him until Saturday. So we decided to do Aiden's birthday dinner a night early. We went out to eat, and gave him a few of his presents-he'll get a few more at his party on Sunday.

opening presents


Oh if I could get him to stop his cheesy smile... ;)



We played a few games while we waited for our food.

Aiden super excited that he scored!





As Aiden told me, Candy is better than Ice Cream. I suppose it depends on the day, and the candy or ice cream!

But Ice Cream is good! Especially with sprinkles ;)

Devin has mastered the art of feeding himself. Not so much getting the food on the utensil, but getting it in his mouth-he hardly ever misses! Go figure ;)




Oh yeah, shove it in!


Of course eating the ice cream is more important than smiling for the camera.

That's better :)

When we got home we decided to try out his skates a little. More practicing will be done outside tomorrow.

Sorry about the angle-Micah wasn't aware you couldn't take video like that. Note my great coaching, cuz I'm such a pro at skating...NOT! haha
