Aidan’s Happy Birthday Party

Here’s some pictures of Aidie-bug’s birthday party. It was so nice to enjoy our backyard and all our wonderful friends!

I made Aidie-bug a ladybug birthday cake. It was only fitting. Such a fun cake to make and SO easy!

Exclamations over the ladybug.
NOT blowing out the candle. For some reason it freaked her out a little when the candle was lit.

Immense enjoyment of ladybug!

Opening of all the great gifts (and Aidan’s friend Mackenzie on the left playing with her belly button or something).
Fun with Granny! Captured a very funny pose of my mom. I’m sure it was almost as much fun as it looks : )

Just a cute picture of Aidan playing with the bubble lawnmower that we gave her. This was a rare moment when she was alone. She usually had 4-6 kids following her around as she raced around the lawn pushing it. It seemed to be a big hit.
