You’ll have to excuse the architectural geek that escaped to write this post.
We spent all last weekend moving and we’re exhausted and happy.

Things I love Today
I love these things today. Obviously I love my boys and puppies and I guess the cat, too.
But today specifically I love:
- The look of a fresh pedicure. My toes are taxi yellow in hopes for spring.
- French macaroons. Half a dozen raspberry, thanks.
- The way Aiden runs to me when he’s been away. I hope this never stops.
- Sleeping in. ‘Nuff said.
- Belgian waffles from scratch. Who doesn’t love these?
- Flowers for no reason. I already had valentines flowers!
And most of all I love the insanely beautiful weather we’ve been having. Flip flops, yes please!
I realize this post is worthless without photos so you’ll have to use your (most vivid) imagination.

Smell-Good Day
On Saturday after my shower the conversation went like this:
Aiden: “Mommy, what is that?”
Me: “Deodorant.”
Aiden: “What does it smell like?”
Me: “Apricots.”
Aiden: “Can I smell it?”
Then he proceeds to smell it and asks for some. At least I know he won’t be the stinky kid in school!

Rainy Holiday
Yesterday Aiden had no school due to MLK day. Despite it being wet and rainy all day, I think he had a good time.

Just 2 Wheels
Recently we got Aiden his first “big boy” bike with no training wheels. However, teaching a kid to ride and running along side of them hunched over didn’t sound like any fun for the parents. So I got this idea, what if there was a pole at the back of the bike that I could hold onto and rollerblade behind him? Well, apparently just such a contraption exists.
On his first try he was riding without me holding on. Since then we have been practicing and he has become quite good. The bike is bigger and heavier than his last so starting and stopping on his own is difficult. Other than that I just ride behind him ready to catch bar if he starts to fall.
Here is a recent video of the action…

ohdeedoh Finals! (Please vote!)
I entered Aiden’s room into ohdeedoh’s color contest and after being one of the lucky ones chosen for voting, his room is now in the final 9! Please go there and vote for his room. 
I can’t sit still any more. I read OhDeeDoh on a daily basis and a lot of ideas I got for Aiden’s room were a result of that.
