St. Patricks day!

Holidays are getting more and more fun the older Aiden gets!! He is so funny about holidays! This year for St. Patricks day, I told him a bed time story the night before about Leprechauns and how they liked to sneak around on St. Patricks day and change turn things green, becuase that is their favorite color! He was asking so many questions and he was so excited that I was sure he was NEVER going to go to sleep!
The next morning, he came running into our room and said that the Leprachauns had changed his toilet water to green!! :) He was so excited! He laughed and giggled about the green toilet water for most of the day!
Much to his delight, those silly Leprachauns had also turned our eggs and milk green!!! (David was absolutely grossed out by green eggs, and had a hard time looking at his food while he ate it!) Aiden was thrilled and ate everything on his plate and asked for more! Later that afternoon, this little beauty helped me whip up some yummy treats! And, since our eggs were green, so were our cupcakes! Ady loves to watch me! She is perfectly content sitting in her little chair watching whatever I do! Cooking, cleaning, getting ready for the day! She loves to just watch!
We ended up not eating our green cupcakes until the next day, because we went out to dinner/ desert with Rindee and the kids.
Aiden still talks about those Leprachauns and thinks that next year, he is going to catch one and keep it! :)

I tried the whole Leprachaun thing but it freaked Brooke out. I guess she didn't like the idea of a little green man running around her house being all sneaky-like. :) Glad Aiden enjoys it.
