Sorry for the Delay

Sorry for the long delay in posting. It has been pretty busy here.

Aiden is still doing swimming lessons and doing wonderful he has come so far in the past 6 weeks of lessons. He will now jump of of the side and doggy paddle to his teacher Erin, he will also go under holding on to the wall, he will push of of the wall and swim a short distance to her, and above all he will jump off the diving board to his teacher willingly it was amazing. 

I can not get my camera to upload onto the computer so no great Angels pictures from the other weekend. I will have Anthony try later. But this is a picture taken by Yvonne the wonderful photographer that did Aiden's pictures about a month ago. I have a few other ones to post that she took too. For all of you close email me for her phone number if you want picture's taken. 

I promise I will post more often.

Aiden and Nonna Baking a Cake

Here are two pictures of Aiden and my mom making a cake. Aiden loves to help in the kitchen. he might just be a chef like his Zio Mimmo! My mom had bought a new baking cook book, so she and Aiden made a cake this evening. We have been doing pretty good staying busy of course. 

Just getting ready to watch the Angels vs. Dodgers game. I really want to go out to Chavez Ravine in LA  this weekend to root my Angels on! I am unsure if we will go or not. We are going to Angel Stadium on July 4th then again on the 6th. 

Yesterday at Ontario Mills I bought Aiden some flip flops and it is so funny because he can not quite walk in them right so he kind of drags his feet along. It's so funny, but he will not take them off. Every waking moment he wants them on. Off to watch the game.  

Aiden and Dora

Sorry for the long delay in posting.

Here is a picture of Aiden and his pet Guinea Pig "Dora" who he named himself after " Dora the Explorer" TV show. 

I took this picture yesterday after swimming.

Aiden loves Dora. He is always wanting to hold her and let her run around his toys.

We have been pretty busy around here. Today we went to Ontario and went shopping for a little while. I bought Aiden some winter clothes from the children's place. We also got tickets for the Angels game on July 6th from our friend Paul. I am so excited it is picture day with the players. So I will for sure post some awesome pictures after. 

Today was Aiden's last day of swimming lessons for this session, but I signed him up for the next session. This time with a semi-private lesson with his favorite teacher Erin. Aiden also jumped off the diving bored today, but Anthony did not get a picture of it I was so sad. Ok, Aiden did not jump willingly it took a lot of coxing and he screamed but I am glad that he did it. My goal after this next set of lessons is for him to jump to her willingly. Hopefully after lessons are over for the summer he will be able to swim a little. I just wish we had a pool.   Till later! I will post more tomorrow!

SICKO

Yesterday, Anthony, my dad and I watched the movie SICKO by Michael Moore. What an eye opening  documentary that was. I recommend that if you can watch it to do so. You will not believe what is in the movie. It is about Healthcare in the United States and how other countries including CUBA have a lot better medical care than we do. Pretty Shocking!!!

Sorry no picture right now I do not have any new ones to post. Yesterday we pretty much just sat around all day. We did go to Target that was the extent of doing anything. It is just too hot, you do not even want to leave your house. Today is back to swimming lessons for Aiden, this is the lat week but I am thinking about signing him up again for another 2 weeks. Well I am off to go get ready before my dad gets back with Aiden, they went together for a ride to the bank. I will try to post some pictures tonight.

To Go To Disneyland or Not

Sorry for no post yesterday. It was pretty crazy. Aiden went to swimming lessons. Then we went off to Joyce's house to swim in her pool with Aiden's best friends Joey and Jacob. Aiden is becoming a lot less intimidated of the pool which is great. Hopefully he will be a fish just like his mommy was. 

Tonight we are going to Chick-fila with Joyce and the boys and are thinking about going to Disneyland after since we will be halfway there and it will not be nearly as hot at night. It has been about 106 during the day here. Way too hot for my liking! I hate this weather! Give me rain any day. I know you all in England can not believe that I am saying that but. It is just so hot now! Aiden is in a stage where he loves talking on the phone. It is so funny. Pondering the idea to go or not. I would like to go but how well will Aiden do there until midnight. My mom is also thinking about going with us. We will see. If we go I will sure to post some pictures.

Talk to you Later!!!  I leave you with a picture of Aiden at his swimming lesson yesterday.

Wordless Wednesday!!!!

Have fun with wordless Wednesday!

Swimming

Aiden went to his swimming lessons again today. He enjoyed it more today. It will be a matter of time before he becomes a little fish like his mommy was. He is taking swimming lessons at the same place that I learned how to swim almost 20 years ago. I think that the fact that his best friend Joey is in the same class is helping him lesson his fear when he sees Joey doing it. He is becoming a little more daring. He let the teacher dunk him under the water and was pushing off the wall letting her catch him.  I am thinking about signing him up again for the two weeks after this session. 

We are all sitting around watching the Laker's game and Aiden is throwing the ball around pretending to be Kobe!! He is also yelling GO LAKERS!!!! When it comes to sports I think Aiden has it down. Thanks to his mom and grandparents. He absolutely loves the Angels and is always asking when we are going to go to an Angels Game. 

Summer school for me starts next week, but I am taking all online classes so it should not be pretty easy. I am hoping that we will be able to go out some more. Lots of plans on going to Disneyland and staying local. I can't wait to spend some good quality time with him since I have been going to classes full time, I feel sort of  like we have not spent enough time together. So this summer we will stay busy.

Feel free to leave us comments.  Until tomorrow
