So Jared was determined to have a whole day with good Daddy time with Aidan. Aidan has been very aware of the fact that Jared works so much, so he's been cranky with Daddy. This weekend was a great time for him & Jared to get to spend some quality time together! First, they busted the plastic off Aidan's Christmas present(yes, it's still been sitting since Christmas!) and went fishing! They just fished in the pond off our backyard, and the fish weren't biting. Well, they were biting, but they were biting and running! Aidan had a bucket, and we're sure a BIG imagination that they were going to catch enough fish to fill it up. After nearly an hour and no fish, Aidan decided he didn't like fishing and didn't want to do it again. :-)
Later that day, after a delicious lunch at Moe's, we took the boys to the beach. It was Jared's first time at the beach with either boy and Austin's second trip. Austin was only 8 months old the last time he went. It may be a while before we convince him to go again! He was terrified of the water! Each time the surf would start to come in, he would squeal and run the other way. We laughed about it because it was such a site to see our little tough guy, daredevil scared of something! He wasn't crazy about the sand getting on his feet, but he loved rubbing the sand on me and helping Aidan bury my feet in the sand. After the beach, we headed to Outback for a small dinner before heading home. We didn't leave Outback until 8:00 PM, and we were SO pleasantly surprised at what a pleasant dinner it was, considering how late it was. It was an absolutely perfect day, and our family really needed it! We got the idea from a friend of taking the boys' pictures with their names, but Austin was ready to go and Aidan's has the shadow, so we'll have to try again next time!
