Atlantic City ~ Day 3 in Jersey

And we are off to Atlantic City...Jason decided that we would take the kids to Atlantic City since neither of them had been to the Atlantic Ocean before. 

It was a little cold when we arrived but that didn't stop the kids from wanting to go put their feet in the ocean.We stayed at Caesars Palace which was right off the boardwalk and the beach. 

We had a great time even though it could have been a little warmer.

Getting ready to leave for A.C.

Woohoo!!!

The kids checking out the ocean...Trey went right in and Aiden baby ran from the waves. He was a little nervous at first but then he got used to them.

Awww....My sweet boys..I LOVE them so much!

Here we are at the Borgata meeting Jason's sister.

Me and my boys...That water was sooooo cold. Aiden still wasn't quite used to the waves.

See his little feet wrapped around me tight.

Us with Joel, Tiff, and Jason's Dad on the Boardwalk

Aiden is in the middle of one of his many meltdowns...LOL...I'm not even sure what it was about.

You gotta love terrible two's:)

Now he's better....Taking in the view from Daddy's shoulders

In the hotel getting ready to head to the Boardwalk again...Aiden loves to take pictures so here he is taking a picture of me...I had to bend down to his level so he could get me...Pretty good photographer don't ya think? He LOVES my camera's and this one he could actually hold since it was just our point and shoot. He's so cute and say's "cheese" when he takes pictures.

Mommy and Aiden

Trey and Mom

Here's a pic of the boys at the Korean War Memorial right off the Boardwalk

Trey trying to fit his head in the helmet...Just a little too big.

And we were officially all tuckered out...Aiden actually fell asleep eating his donut...He had been running all over the place and then hopped in his stroller with his donut and he was out just like that. We didn't even have time to get his blankie out from under him.

It was a long day and a lot of traveling for the little guy.

New Jersey ~ Day 1 & 2

We were heading to one of Jason's friends wedding this past weekend so we decided to make a little vacation out of it as well. We had a lot of fun but it was a lot of traveling for a little two year old. We survived though:) I was a little worried about the flight with Aiden because he has been a little "terrible two year old" since he literally turned two. He is so busy and doesn't like being confined but it worked out even though he only slept for about an hour on the four hour and 45 minute flight. Once he woke up he was all over the place. Back and forth through our aisle. I was a little stressed and there sat Jason calm as can be...LOL...I wish he could give me just a little bit of his patience:)

Oh but look how peaceful and cute my little Aiden baby is.

Me and Trey on the plane

The boys absolutely love running around Grandma and Grandpa's house. We are usually there in the winter so it was really nice to see the beautiful scenery. 

Aiden couldn't get enough of the riding lawn mower. Grandpa was getting the old bikes out of the garage for Trey and Aiden was waiting patiently for a ride on the vroom vroom.

Look at this awesome bike! I LOVE it....Jason had it when he was like three years old.

Aiden baby needs to grow a little bit more before he can ride it...It didn't stop him from pushing off with his feet though and heading down the hill

This is Jason's other bike he had when he was a bit older.

And Aiden finally got his vroom vroom ride with Grandpa....He rode with him for over an hour mowing their big lawn. He LOVED it.

Trey could not get enough of this bike. They don't make bikes like they used too.

 He loved skidding. It seems like most bikes these days have the brakes on the front instead. He loved having the brakes on the pedals.

I had to take another picture of this cute bike....It's a mini banana seat bike. It's so cute!

Still mowing the lawn.

Even Trey got to take Aiden for a few rides...He couldn't get enough.

Trey's first Lobster Dinner....He even helped put the live lobster in the boiling water.

Later that night we headed off to the wedding and Jason's parents took the kids to Chuck E Cheese.

 It was a beautiful wedding right off the lake and we had a great time.

 Jason loves being able to see his friends again and we always have a great time.

Aiden's 2nd Birthday Party

I'm a little late posting Aiden's party but I do have a good excuse:) I have been so busy with my photography that I haven't even had a chance too...Better late than never right? We had a lot of fun at Aiden's 2nd Birthday party. He had a farm theme this year and everything was super cute. We had Jersey Mikes sandwiches, chips, drinks, cake, and dirt dessert. My whole entire family came down and I was so excited. We haven't all been down here together in a long time. All my nieces and nephews were here to help Aiden baby celebrate. We chatted, we ate, the kids played pin the tail on the donkey, played at the park, opened presents and had a great time. The weather was perfect. Not too hot. I have tons more pics and I also need to get all the pictures from Jason's mom. I was busy running around so I didn't get too many of us all together. But when I do get them, I will be sure to post. Thanks everyone for coming! We all had a great time, and I know Aiden did too:)

Here he is getting ready to blow out his candles on this cute cake Grandma Bobbi made for him. (Thanks Mom, I loved it)

He absolutely LOVED blowing out the candles...He was so proud.

            All this attention is finally getting to him...LOL...He was getting pretty tired at this point.

                               Not sure if he wanted to share his new birthday toys or not...haha

And here's Aiden's new bedspread. Isn't it darling? I LOVE it!!! My mom does such a wonderful job. I'm glad she does it for me because I don't have the patience to sew. We had a great day and thanks again everyone for helping us celebrate Aiden baby turning 2.  Happy Birthday Sweet Aiden. We LOVE you so much!   XOXO
