Cute Things Aaron did!

The other day I was trying to get the cellophane wrapper off something and he said Mama use the keys!

When we were at the library for storytime he typed his name on the computer without my help!

Mommy Makes Aaron Do Things He Doesn't Want

Poor little scared Aaron!

Jason and I took Aaron to Six Flags, just the three of us on Sunday. We took him to the lazy river and he said he didn't want to go on it. I made him anyways and he was deathly afraid of the 1st part where it is unavoidable of getting wet. We made it to the other side without getting wet, a girl helped us go to the non-current side and the photographer pushed us through where the drips were. Aaron was practically jumping off my lap in the tube to get out of the lazy river. Halfway through though he actually liked it and enjoyed himself. The funny thing is he has been on this so many times and he always has fun...he just hates that 1st part and I guess he wasn't feeling like going on it. We had a nice lunch and then I took Aaron over to the kids section, here too he didn't want to go, but I made him anyways and then when he saw the fountain jets again he loved it and I couldn't pull him away. It is funny how he will forget something, or maybe he really just doesn't want to do it (who knows!)

When we finally ripped him away from the water fountain we went and walked around in the park. We shot at the pirate boats at Buccaneer battle and then headed to the back of the park. We got to Wiggles World and I made Aaron ride on the red cars even though he didn't want to, he was mad, but as soon as he got on he was fine.

Then the topper of all! I made him ride the TRAIN! He has ridden the train before, but Jason and I let him ride the Whizzer around June and we told him it is a really fast train (maybe we shouldn't have said that). While we were waiting for the train he can't stop crying and saying he is scared! I felt so bad, but I had to make him ride it, I mean if I didn't what would he be like when we go to Disney!! :O! It got to the point where Jason was embarrassed so he walked to the other train station and left me there to deal with our poor crying scared 3 year old. When we finally got on the train, which felt like an eternity, he was freaking out and wanted off the train. I could tell he was really timid but once we got off the train he said he loved it and he liked the tunnel the best. Kids are funny!

Happy 4th!

So I have been MIA for a while.

We went to Disney World and when we came back, Aaron was out of sorts. He had a very bad temper and froggy was now being carted everywhere. When we were gone froggy also got a voice. It is cute, Aaron lowers his voice a bit and will talk as if he is froggy. I have a feeling while we were gone he missed is an awful lot and was spoiled a bit. Since we got back from WDW we have been keeping him with us for almost every weekend and now he seems to be back to his normal self. It took a while, but it was worth it.

He still is singing up a storm, now he actually can sing quite a few songs without any cd playing. While we were walking home from Frontier Days today he was singing, Don't Stop Believing, Single Ladies, and Defying Gravity.

He is getting really, really good at reading. He will just surf around the internet reading different websites. Photography Corporation.

Just today he opened up a video full screen and pressed escape to exit out of it. And I told him we need to turn off mama's computer and he went to the start menu and clicked shut down?!?

Yesterday Aaron got a pizza and he saw this on the box and he said...."This pizza doesn't have cheese on it!" So stinkin smart! It is amazing what kids say every day. I really need to start updating this more so I can put all the cute things he says.

We bought a season pass to Great America again this year and Aaron rode the Whizzer with us! The last time Dada took him and the rode the Lil Dipper that was transferred from Kiddieland when that closed. I am so proud of Aaron because he wanted to go on the Fun Slide at the festival with Dada! He went on it and said, "We went Fast!"

Today we took him to the Arlington Heights 4th of July parade! He loved it, until we were sitting there for over 2 hours straight with no sign of the parade ending! I couldn't believe how long it was. He loved getting lots of candy! What kid doesn't ;).

Oh another thing he started doing, is asking inanimate objects so what are you going to do today, sign, can, house, dog....it's quite cute. I wonder what else I will remember he has been doing! They grow up so fast!
