The Bahamas

Back in the summer, we decided to book a trip to Atlantis in the Bahamas, to celebrate our 10th anniversary. But we decided to wait until Aaron was three, so that he could participate in some of the activities that Atlantis has to offer. We had a great time, and are now completely exhausted.

The day we arrived it looked like a monsoon, so we spent our time inside, exploring their many aquariums.




The next couple of days were cloudy and windy, but no rain. It was a little cold for the water, but we sucked it up and enjoyed the beaches of the lagoons and the water parks, with little to no crowds.





Although this beach is gorgeous, the wind and the waves kept us off the beach most days.

The last couple of days were sunny and warm. Hurray! Aaron wore himself out on these water-slides, continuously climbing up then sliding down. He only took a break to ride the rapids-style lazy river with us, and to see the shark feeding. By the time we left the island, he was asking us to carry him around because "his walkers hurt".



We ended the week all smiles (and a child completely passed out on the plane).

Party at Chuck E. Cheese

Aaron's Granna has been telling Aaron that we would have his third birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese, so, of course, we did. He loved every moment.




We opened most of his gifts at home. He has been asking to be Super Why for Halloween, so I figured that this might be the only year where I could get away with giving him his costume for a birthday present. He loved it!

"I am Two Years Old" (but only for a few days longer)

Aaron celebrated his third birthday last week at school. It was a little early, but he is certainly looking like a three year old these days.
