Firefighter's Busy Day

We decided to celebrate Aaron's birthday one more time, at home. Just because I felt like doing something special for him. So, in the morning we went to the waterpark in Gaithersburg. At first Aaron was apprehensive and would cling to me like a monkey, though he wouldn't want to leave the pool. In about 20 minutes he warmed up to it and wouldn't want even to hold my hand-he wanted to swim all by himself. The pool was adjusted for kids. It was shallow at first and then gradually became deeper. So Aaron would walk from the shallow to the deep part until his face appeared almost under the water. Then of course he did not want to leave.
While he was napping I made him a firetruck cake and we sang Happy Birthday Aaron one more time which made him very happy:)
This morning after church we took him to ToysRUs and let him pick presents from GiGi and GiGiPa. He picked an Emergency Playset, two sets of Lego Duplo blocks, a Construction set, a traffic mat and a golf set. Earlier this week I took him to a bookstore and let him pick a present from Great Grandmother. He picked Richard Scarry's Cars and Trucks and Things that Go book, and a Truck Sticker book which we already did together (60 stickers). The new book is now his favorite. We'd like to thank the family for their generous and thoughful gifts. They made Aaron's birthday (week).
