Today’s the day. The day I love and the day I dread more than any other – Aidan’s birthday party. I said we weren’t having a party this year in light of the Disneyland shenanigans taking place next weekend, but we have to do something for family, right? So it begins…..in a few minures I [...]

LW is an enthusiastic and expressive child. He constantly uses his hands when he talks (where he gets that from, I’ll never know) and his facial expressions are priceless. He has quite a flair for the dramatic to say the least. It really should not have surprised us then when during our impromptu visit to [...]
The Graduate
Posted in Aidanisms, Family, Just For Fun on Jun 1st, 2009
Thursday LW graduated from kindergarten. What!?! Wasn’t he a baby last week? When did he get so big? Soon we may have to remove the L and just refer to him as W. Nope, never mind, can’t happen. We don’t like the original Dubya in our house, so I will not call my child by [...]
A Hard Day at School
Posted in Aidanisms, Family, Just For Fun on Apr 25th, 2009
On Friday morning, I dropped off a very happy boy at school. Four hours later, they boy that walked out of the classroom was clutching a handful of tissues and trying very hard not to cry. He managed to hold the tears in until he got to me and then the dam burst. When I [...]
Found Another One

We found the Easter Bunny’s [...]

Like most hobbies in my life, this one started with technology…
I was perusing a list of iphone applications when I came across this geocaching app on sale for a [...]

Constant Caramel and Fun Dip
Posted in Aidanisms, Family, Just For Fun on May 15th, 2008
Little Whirlwind has quite a vocabulary for a four year old, but lately he has been popping out with some zingers that I thought needed to be shared with the world….
Conversation #1
I have been teaching LW about instant karma. You know, the idea that if you do good things, good things will come to [...]
Butterfly Release
Posted in Family, Photo Page on Apr 27th, 2008
A couple of months ago, Nana received an invitation to the 5th Annual Celebration of Life Butterfly Release to benefit the Nathan Adelson Hospice. We had completely forgotten about the celebration until this morning; otherwise, we would have invited other family members to join us.
In smallest terms, it was a wonderful event.
The program was scheduled [...]
