The Water Park across the street!




In mid August, our new development finished the Resident's Club complete with pool, waterslides, playgrounds and gym. We moved in on August 31st and took advantage of the pool that night! In September, we went to the pool a lot and one day we finally got the above photos of the fun!









Bug Fest!






I think it was in mid to late September when we hung out with Cousins Frank and Sonja all day one Saturday. They showed us the big flea market in Raleigh and we saw some interesting things and some great distressed, antique looking furniture. Then we made it over to a great Greek restaurant near by and had a variety of yummy things for lunch. After a nap at the McKay's, we went over to an event in downtown Raleigh called "Bug Fest." This was the perfect event for Ayden because it was everything about bugs! Ayden has been a fan for quite some time. :) They had one of those inflatable contraptions you can crawl into that was in the shape of a worm. You entered through its mouth and climbed through its body all the was to the exit out its rear end! Ayden participated in the bug olympics. You had to complete three events and you would receive a medal. There was a worm race, a bee pollen collection and a one other we didn't get a photo of. They even had real edible bug treats at this event, it was a lot of fun!

The cute things they say!

Things are getting easier here in NC...Ayden doesn't complain as much when I take him to preschool, which is so much better, because then I don't go away almost crying (must be those pregnancy hormones!).
The other day I picked him up from preschool and he was having an afternoon snack and sitting next to this girl, Madison. His teacher told me that she thinks Ayden likes Madison, he seems to pay a bit of attention to her. I thought that was cute, he seems to mostly enjoy playing with boys and so when we got into the car and were driving, I said, "Ayden, do you have a friend named Madison?" He said, "Yes, she is my friend girl!"
...oh the cute things they say...
