I'm Turning 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is when Ayden was born. I woke up at about 11:30pm 7/28/05 and my water was breaking. I tell you it was the weirdest but coolest feeling ever. I woke up Kevin while I was running to the bathroom. He quickly got on the phone to the hospital (Unity) to find out if we should come in right away. I was laughing. I knew the time was coming when I was finally going to meet my baby. I drove to the hospital... we got there and check in. During that time it was already the 29th. I asked what the date was, when I told I realized that Ayden as born on my dad's birthday... Funny. So finally at about 5:30 am the nurse came in to tell me that they were going to try to speed things up with some good ole Pitocin (hate that stuff) to get me to have contractions. I had Kevin, Carrie (my sister), Addie (my sister) and Renee (Kevin's sister) all in the room with me. I made some cry and others think twice about having kids (Addie). I was begging for an epidural. I still was not dialated to 4 yet. That was at about 3pm on the 29th. Finally the doctor came in and new that there was something going on. For all those hours in hard labor I was not dialating to anything. The doctor then decided to do an emergency c-section. I got my epidural and I felt so good after that... I remember the nurse asking me if I was ok after the epidural and I love I couldn't feel anything and that was great. :) They had decided that Ayden was caught on something but unsure of what really. Into surgery I went. Kevin was admitted in. Everyone else waited. By that time my mom was there too. 7:56pm 7/29/05 Ayden Timothy Peterson was born to Parents Lynn and Kevin Peterson and sister Hanna Peterson.

I don't think that I have ever been happier in my whole life. There has been happy very happy moments in my life but the moment that you have a child and you look at that childs face.... There is nothing like that feeling.

Milestones before he was 1 years old were~
He started crawling at about 5 months old.
Walking about 9.5 months old



Ayden was about a year old here. I don't have the actually picture yet. Grandma Peterson is looking for one for me. I didn't have a digital at that time.


This is when I turned 2 years old and my whole family celebrated with me.
I learned how to ride a bike when I was 2.
I could climb a fence at 2.
I am a man on the go and no one can hold me down :)

Now this month I am going to turn 3 years old.....OH BOY!!!!


Ayden is turning 3 years old on July 29......

Here are some pictures of his big moments

My sisters and brothers

So this is my sister Carrie, my brother Tim and I. We are so close. I also have a sister Addie and a brother Jerry that are not pictured. Carrie, Tim and I are close. I guess as close are siblings can get. We call each other. If we haven't heard from one of us then we call. Its usually Tim that we have to call. We like getting together and getting our kids together. I just want to say how much I care and love them

Lately

I know I know I really should be more active. Its summer all Ayden wants to do is be outside and when we do have to be in the house its "Play Game" so here I am adding a post at work...LOL

So what has been going on lately... My little sister graduated from High School and will be starting College in the fall. I am very very proud of her. Dang I still have to give her the card that Ayden and I forgot to give at the party. OPPS!

I am have to start working out again..... YMCA here I come.

So I took Ayden to the Columbia Heights Carnival and he had a blast. He rode on 2 rides (that is our limit). Then we played with the boys. We went with, Carol, Nathan, Mo, Sue, Theresa and Travis. It was so much fun and Ayden had a blast with everyone. Then 10 on the dot the fireworks started and my wonderful little fun loving boy turned into this scared,crying, wanting to go home little boy. I felt so bad and if I could have found everything I would have just left but it was dark and everything was everywhere. So Ayden and I laid under the blanket holding each other until all the BANGS, BOOMS, and Whistles stopped. Then he was fine again.. Oh yeah I don't think that I told Carol this but he asked me if I liked Carol and Sue and I said YES and he said I LOVE THEM....LOL I think it was all the cookies, gum, reeses peanut butter cups and chips that they gave him....LOL All in all he had a great time.

The next day we went to Kevin's parents house to hang out with them. We ended up going to the Blazin 4th... another carnival. Ayden got to go on 3 rides because Grandpa got him tickets...LOL

Pictures are included...LOL
