Happy Birthday Aidan & Eva

Aidan and Eva had their birthdays last month! It feels unreal that we now have a 12 year old. It also crazy that my baby is 6 years old! She is the age Aidan was when she was born and I just can’t even wrap my head around that.

                       

I actually hated the idea of their birthdays being just a day apart, but it has felt special and hasn’t taken away from either one of them.

We did streamers and balloons for Aidan too but he’s pretty cool now that he’s 12 so posing for pictures in front of streamers was a no go.

I feel like these two got to do a lot of celebrating. Eva asked for cupcakes for her class on her birthday. 

Aidan asked for our special marshmallow brownies for his class. Again, no pictures.

Eva also asked to go to chuck-e-cheese on her birthday so off we went! They all had the best time. 

Class treats and Chuck-E-Cheese clearly wasn’t enough celebrating for these two so we had a pool party!

The biggest change I’ve noticed is that 12 has been the magic number for Aidan. He’s been a part of the youth program at church since January and that has changed him tremendously but I’ve noticed even more maturity in him in just the past couple of months. He’s just about an inch shorter than me! He LOVES to read. His favorite book ever is always the one he is currently reading. Also, he is currently obsessed with this hat that his good friend, Jacob, gave him.

                                     

Eva is becoming sneaky and mischievous. She loves to pester her siblings when she thinks I’m not looking. Even though she is the youngest, she has always held her own but now seems to be the sneaky little instigator. She’s learning how to read and according to her teacher is incredibly artistic. She’s such a joy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AIDAN AND EVA!
