Today was a busy day for Aidan.

Mama is off in the woods camping near Lone Pine in the Eastern Sierra's and this week Aidan has his pre-school orientation, first day of school and a birthday party. All this within two days!

Today, he had pre-school orientation at Monica Ros this morning from 9:30-11. Upon arrival Aidan immediately wanted to go to his old classroom, the Three's. He spent some time there and then Papa suggested that they go over and see the "Blue Room."

The Blue Room is actually where Aidan will be this year. There is the Blue Room and the Red Room, named such because of the color of their doors. All of the kids in these rooms are within the four year old range.

Aidan seemed excited to be back and at the same time a bit confused as to where he will be for school this year. No worries because after an hour-and-a-half he was off for a respite and then on to Caroline DelVechio's birthday party at the Thacher Pool.

The party was great fun. Aidan went swimming, went on many rides on the Jolly Jump Slide and had his fair share of whacks at the piata. All this action at the party coupled with the excitement of his morning was a lot. It all came to a climax when, after sliding down the Jolly Jump Slide Aidan hesitated for a moment and Tag Curwen came zipping down. He slid under Aidan who went into the air and then came down with his mouth hitting Tag's head. This caused Aidan to split open his lip. He bled a little and cried, but most of all he was REALLY tired. So, we walked up the hill back to home. The Perry's were very nice and offered Aidan a popsicle to help keep the swelling down. He loved the popsicle!

This was one busy day.
