Summer Fun

We had a blast this summer! Since daddy was only around for one month this summer, we made sure to do lots & lots of activities to stay busy! We did have some fun days with daddy before he left. While he was around in July, studying for boards, we went swimming and to the park....often!
After daddy left, we went to the Wildlife Experience, with a girlfriend of mine. This is a great place for kids & adults alike, and it's just down the road from our apartment. You get to learn about wild animals, and many of them are animated, which makes it even more adventurous!
We took a trip to the Zoo. This was not Aidan's first experience, but he was a little bit older and I was hoping he would be more interested. Not really. I just don't think he understands the concepts. Plus, it was a warm day. I, never get tired of going to the Zoo!!
On the days it was too hot to play outside, we went to Little Monkey Bizness. My girlfriend introduced me to this great little gym for itty bitty's like Aidan. It's great! And he always gets worn out just enough to fall asleep on the drive home. Woot! As the summer went on, he became more and more brave, learning to climb more and go down the slides all by himself. By the end of the summer he even ventured into the bouncy castle all my himself. Way to go Aidan!
Of course we did the usual playtime at home, corn on the cob and just all around being silly. Aidan has such a great personality and imagination. It's fun to watch his little mind at work!
Last but certainly not lease, we spent quite a few mornings or evenings at the splash pads. Colorado has these all over the place and we love them. Aidan has never been afraid of the water and could not wait to spend as much time running in and out of them. It was a great break for me and an easy way to cool off. Yeah summer!!
