Happy Birthday Aiden!

Today was Aiden's first birthday. We celebrated his birthday tonight with some cake, but there was definitely some sadness mixed in as I wish so badly that he was home with us. Jordan helped me bake the cake which was fun for him. Believe it or not, my little 2 1/2 year old already knows how to crack an egg! I can't take credit. His daddy taught him that one. Then this afternoon I was feeling pretty down in the dumps about not being able to see Aiden on his first birthday and give him his first piece of cake. It helped so much to see these pictures in my e-mail today! Thankfully our birthday package arrived on time and Aiden seems to enjoy his new phone. Good job, big brother! Jordan was the one to pick out that toy.

We hope you had a wonderful birthday, Aiden! We love you so much and can't wait for the day when we can hold you in our arms!
