This Noodle is Nine Years Old!!

Hard to believe that my Aidan turned 9 this week. I am not sure where the time went but my little monkey in the middle is growing into a big kid before my eyes! How did this happen??
I think it is so funny to have three boys all in very different stages of their growing years. I have a teenager and a toddler, and then smack dab in the middle is this boy who is chock full of spunk and what we refer to as bratittude... he is a kid growing into his own.... This is my little Leo boy... my summer baby.... the kid that loves his Mommy and tells me so... at least 5 times in a day. He gets bossed around and picked on by his big brother and he gets the very same from his little one too! Aidan Michael... the glue in my trio. He follows one brother and leads the other. He wears his heart on his sleeve, and is not afraid to say what is going on in his mind.
He loves Pokemon.... he is a rookie at baseball.... he loves animals and math. He loves to play and is often the one to get hurt... he is afraid of the dentist and of lightning. He looks like his Dad, grows like a weed and has the cutest few freckles on his face. I am lucky to have this kid in my life... him and his smiling eyes, he is Nay Nay, the nine year old boy!!! Happy birthday kiddo!!! Lovessss to you!
