Waterworks Aquatic Party

The last time Aiden went in the pool was over 5 months ago for his birthday.

DSCF0003

He’s been wanting to go in the pool for weeks.

DSCF0005

Finally got his wish.

DSCF0006

But it wasn’t all smiles.

DSCF0007

After a while he was ready to get out.

DSCF0008

But we didn’t let him give up so easily.

DSCF0011

But first some rare family pics.

DSCF0015

I wanted more but Aiden had enough!

DSCF0016

We did some exercises he learned from classes last year.

DSCF0017

He didn’t quite like it when the water went in his ears.

DSCF0023

And I think he enjoyed it more when Daddie held him.

DSCF0027

Daddie has a better grasp on this.

DSCF0029

It’s a good thing we went early as there were lots of people when we left the pool area.

DSCF0030

Aiden preferred jumping into the pool.

DSCF0042

He had a blast doing that again and again.

DSCF0043

He was in the water long enough to get wrinkly skin.

DSCF0049

Something he didn’t like.

DSCF0050

It was so funny because he got out of the pool as if he were a seal.

DSCF0053

and then he would flop back in the water.

DSCF0056

He was very interested to see what other people did in the pool.

DSCF0059

And of course wanted to help Daddie wipe water from his eyes.

DSCF0066

That would probably make it worse for Daddie.

DSCF0068

We also went to look at the animals, Aiden wanted to go inside the mini “petting zoo.”

DSCF0072

We didn’t let him since while he was looking at the animals and a goat came close by he would hide behind us.

DSCF0073

But he didn’t want to leave and wanted the best view there was.

DSCF0074

Now we just got to keep me away from Aiden, so he doesn’t have animal phobia like Mommie.

DSCF0076

Time to stand and jump in the water.

DSCF0092

But he was scared and wanted Daddie to hold onto his hands while he jumped.

DSCF0093

He had his first liquid nitrogen ice cream today, black sesame and peanut butter flavors.

DSCF0097

What a busy, wonderful day for Aiden today.

DSCF0098

Daddie took Aiden to McDonald’s for breakfast while I was at work.

DSCF0100

What a treat, because if I was on watch McDonald’s wouldn’t be an option.

DSCF0102

Fun times for the boys.

DSCF0103

Splash!Splash! Daddie even dipped Aiden’s head under water – just like during class time.

DSCF0104

He’s also learned to say fire truck in English and Chinese.

DSCF0116

Once he has learned something new he keeps repeating it for the first day or 2.

DSCF0121

Like he will say ” no 撞” and tell us to be careful.  If only he would be a little more careful, he falls down every day.  Scraping his knees again and again, before they even have a chance to heal.
