Library Card

Aeden got his library card on Monday. He was thrilled to borrow two videos and two books (I made the rule that for every video he had to borrow a book).

Of course afterwards he thought we should go shopping since the library gave him a new giftcard. :P I had a bit of explaining to do there. He seems to think all plastic cards = gift cards = money!

Five year olds

Aeden came up to me today and told me the towel hanging in the bathroom that we use to dry our hands on "smells like daddy's stinky feet". Hee!

Oh and when I asked if I could try a piece of his candy he very generously agreed and offered me my choice!.

Another one, this morning I was laying down on the couch and Aeden asked me to help him with something on a video game. I told him no, I had a headache and didn't want to look at video games and that he should figure it out himself. His response: "I am only a little 5-year-old."

Happy 5th Birthday

Every pirate needs a treasure chest.

When it is your birthday at school you get a happy birthday crown. Since Aeden's birthday is in July he didn't get a crown at preschool so he insisted that we make one for him. He then wore it out to the "carnival" and miniature golfing.

Bad Parents

Aeden just tromped down here and told Eric he was a bad parent.

Eric told him that is one (we do the 123 magic), Aeden mumbled under his breath that Eric was a bad parent.

Eric said "What is that?"

Aeden said "I love you daddy"

5 year checkup

Aeden had his five year physical today. He got 3 shots, but supposedly won't need anymore until he is 15.

He was big and brave and very, very well-behaved*. He showed them how smart he is. :D

They did a vision test with both eyes open, just reading an eye chart, and he has 20/30 vision. Not sure how reliable that method was though. {frown} It was cute when they got to the line he couldn't read he turned and asked me what it said. :D

His weight is 37.25 lbs, and his height is 41.5 inches.

*He used all the good behavior up for his because by the time we got to mine there was only a lot of him saying "I am getting cranky!"
