Crawling is so yesterday for Ethan. He's pulling up and walking around with the help of his triangle shaped wooden walker.

To market with Aidan
To market with Aidan
"Aidan can mama take a picture of you?" I said
"Like this." he replies as a statement and not a question.
No one is off limits to my little Mr. Charming. (Not even a nice nun)
He can even charm the birds.

Mothers Day 2008
Happy Mother's Day My mom is a proud mother of 8 children and 10 grand babies. She deserves a metal!!!
Charlena gets a metal for helping with major decisions about my wedding dress. - Thank goodness she was there to suggest no straps on the dress.
To my dismay, Ethan said "da da" twice this morning. Isn't "da da" easier to say anyway???

Deal or no deal
A week ago I found that my grocery bill was a bit more than expected because Aidan slipped in a DVD without my knowledge. It was the first time anything like this happened so at first I was not sure how to handle the situation. Kyle came up with a happy medium in using teaching Aidan a lesson by asking Aidan to trade in the money from his Mickey Mouse piggy bank for the movie. Deal or no deal? Aidan said “DEAL”. – No kidding he got a bargain! We paid 14.95 Swiss francs for The Tigger Movie and sold it to Aidan for 4.30 Swiss francs.
Time for rain

Thu's birthday
And the wish goes to........
Unfortunately I woke up blindly making my way to the medicine cabinet. The sun was shining and I was not about to ruin Aidan's day. Aidan was the most excited person about mommy's birthday. When I asked him if he could sing me the birthday song he said "ney" ( Swiss German for no) and broke out with "patty cake patty cake......" - good idea bud!
According to my medical bills from the past three weeks, on paper it looks like I turned 72 on March 15th rather than 27. What makes starting out a bad day good? These three dumplings who know exactly how to cheer me up! Kyle grilled, Aidan swept the deck while Ethan 'patiently' waited for dinner. These were the BEST gifts of all, daily help and hugs. Ten minutes before dinner was ready we asked our neighbor Pat to join us....the more the merrier.
On a more serious note the birthday girl would like to make a speech: I would like to thank my family and friends for remembering to send a tiny birthday wish in various forms. A particular favorite are the yellow filled Oreos with a more user friendly packaging design. Without these minor fun details, life would not be so sweet.
