2nd birthday day

Aiden's birthday on a random Tuesday was pretty fun. The morning started pretty early with a birthday song and big hugs. Then he opened more fun presents! He loved sticking the stickers in the birthday boy book my folks found for him. Then he was so excited for his new Thomas the Train set from Gran, Pop, and Gigi. It's the Trackmaster set that runs on batteries. It's pretty cool and Aiden just loves it. He not only got three trains and the track, but a ferris wheel, helicopter pad, and dinosaur museum for stops on the track. So many fun new things to play with around here! Lotsa thank yous all around and we haven't even had his party yet.

My folks had a good idea to take him to Chuck E. Cheese for the first time. He looooved it! I told him in the car on the way over that we were going to Chuck E. Cheese and he said "oh good, i eat cheese" - ha! We had some of their semi decent bbq chicken pizza and had tons of fun playing on the rides. He was especially excited by the big tall horsey ride and the roller coaster simulator (they used ride video from Cedar Point in Ohio!). He had fun giggling at all the funny photo machines, until we tried to get a shot of him with Gran and Pop and then he turned into a squirm monster. One of his favorite parts was dancing with the big "guinea pig" - aka. Chuck E. Cheese - the mouse. They had these really fun cameras that he liked to play with also. It was a great place to celebrate a second birthday. We're excited for his party this weekend!
