Pumpkin Patch

A couple of weeks ago, we went to the Summerlin Pumpkin Patch in Las Vegas. Every year our HOA hosts a pumpkin patch event for the community. They have games, mazes, bouce houses, face painting, and a petting zoo. Local farmers and vendors also come and sell produce and food. Last year was our first year and Aaron had a great time. The kids come in costume and they have a costume parade. This year, however, the event got rained and snowed out! We were in line for the petting zoo, and it began to rain, and eventually snowed!!! It was crazy! It was sooo cold, and we were not prepared for the weather, because last year is was hot. Anyway, we went home early, so did a lot of other people.... but it was still fun. Aaron took home a pumpkin and got to pet some animals. He was happy, so it was good time. :-)

Getting Ready for Fall & Web Camming with Dad

We went to Micheals and scored with some great bargains! $4.99 each for these two super cute scarecrow kids. Aaron wanted to get the big boy (it's supposed to be him) and the small one (for his baby "braw-der"). So cute!
Notice our handy-dandy "Time -out Mat"? It comes in handy... ;-)
A couple of weeks ago we got to webcam with Brent. Aaron of course told him all about his day.
We have had the chance to web cam about 3-4 times already. Thank goodness for technology!

Playhouse Disney Live! part 2

Finale
Isn't he so cute in this pic? He really enjoyed the show!
We came home super tired and napped in the afternoon.

Playhouse Disney Live!

Playhouse Disney Live! On Tour was in town this weekend and we of course, went to see it. Every morning Aaron watches Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Little Einsteins before he goes to school. He also loves to watch Tigger and Pooh and Handy Manny! So he was so excited to see all his favorite shows on stage! The have a smaller version of this show inside Disney's California Adventure, but this was a really fun show and a lot longer!
Having Lunch at TGIF's before entering the Arena.
Aaron was so into the show! He loved seeing all his favoring characters!
Little Einsteins and Rocket
Handy Manny
During intermission, Aaron played with his Handy Manny Tools.

It's a boy!

We finally got ultrasound pictures! I went to the base hospital today and they couldn't get a good picture of the baby, so they couldn't tell me the sex of the baby... I was very disappointed, until I remembered that there are several places around here that does the 3D imaging. So I went and we found out that we are having a boy! Here are the pictures... you can see the face but it's blurry. It turns out that my placenta was right on top and it was getting in the way of getting a clear picture. Anyway I'm glad I went because I was really looking forward to finding out. Brent is very happy to have another boy, that was what he was hoping for... as for me, I'm happy as well although I was hoping for a girl. But Aaron was and still is so much fun, so I'm happy to have another boy!

Aaron's Party

Ok, I know it took me forever to post these pics, but as you can see there was a ton of pics! Anyway, we are so thankful for those who came! Aaron had the best day ever! He also loved all of this gifts! Thanks again!

Aaron's Fourth Birthday Party Part 5

Aaron's super awesome pirate cake. I love this cake! It looked great, and it was delicious too!
My favorite part of any party: Friends and family singing Happy Birthday to the celebrant.
Pinata! The pirate ship pinata was cute too!

Aaron's Fourth Birthday Party Part 4

A pic with Aaron playing with the plank. (By the way, I was really dumb enough to think that the kids will just walk over the water, but they ended up all getting wet! They ended up playing in the water! Sorry, parents...)
Treasure hunt! I hid the goodie boxes inside a box and decorated it to look like a treasure box (well Aaron did). When they unwrapped the paper, Aaron looked at me and said, "Mo-om! It's just a box!" Too funny! I told him that the "treasure" was inside. By the way I found these cute treasure box goodie bags online... it was cheap too, $3.99 for a dozen!
Parents regretting letting thier kids attend such a violent-themed party! The kids went home with swords and toy guns! Again, sorry parents...

Aaron's Fourth Birthday Party Part 3

Kate teaching the little kids how to throw a water balloon. I got black water balloon to make them look like cannons.
Here is Aaron's bouncy house. We got this for him last year, but this is the first time we used it. It was a hit with the kids.
Moriah was one of the first kids to throw the water cannons.
Another game we did was: Coin hunting, I threw a bunch of gold coins on the ground and whoever got the most won.

Aaron's Fourth Birthday Party Part 2

First arrivals: Alicia, Paul, Joey, Kaia, & Richard.
First game: Walk the Plank-- after the kids walked across, they recieved a pirate sword and eye patch.
I wish I got better pics of the birthday boy, but he was so busy I couldn't keep up with him!
I love JP's (kid in the middle) position... he's so into it!

Aaron's Fourth Birthday Party Part 1

Here is Aaron posing for pictures because I told him he if I didn't get a good picture he can't attend his own party. (Yes, I'm mean, but I'm tired of getting pictures with him not looking or making faces.)
It didn't last... and I realized I forgot to take a pic with his hat on. So this is the best one I got with his outfit complete.
Brent was my party decorator. It was so hot, I did not want to step a foot outside the house.
Here is Aaron with his first guest, Joey.
