A Toddler's Perfect Day

I don't think toddler Aiden has ever had a truly perfect day but if he did, this is what it would look like.....

Aiden would wake up and immediately nurse and eat something with mangoes for breakfast.  Mama would pass him spoons, forks, spatulas and sharp knives for him to play with while he ate.  After breakfast, Mama would carry him to each and every light switch in the house and hold him while he turned it on and off many, many times before moving on to the next one.  Then, he would do a tour of the house.  Mama would hold Aiden while he pointed at a shelf and cried out "Eh!", she'd follow his directions and let him pick whatever high up things he wanted to play with....especially the pens and scissors.  

Then he'd head outside.  Aiden loves to water the yard and signs "water" each and every time we leave the house, every time we arrive home from somewhere, and every time he looks out a window and sees anything remotely green.  He hasn't learned the sign for drought yet.  Anyway, back to his day....he'd spend a significant amount of it watering the yard and playing with the hose.  Ideally he'd be naked.  Then, off to the park where Mama or Dada would push him on the swing for a very, very long time.  None of the other kids would protest when he stole their sand toys, in fact they'd jump at the chance to watch him play with their toys.  Every park would would have a water feature and large friendly dogs.  Motorcycles, buses, trucks and trains would occasionally drive by so he could admire them.  

Once home, Aiden would rummage though the diaper bin and kitchen trash.....after having watered the front yard again.  He'd open and close all the Tupperware and make a collage with it covering the house.  Then he'd walk around with Mama's grocery bags collecting random things to carry.  Many of those things will never be seen again.  His Dada would give him a two hour bath and he would cuddle up with both Mama and Dada playing horsey and giving Eskimo kisses until he fell asleep.  

I'm sure I don't need to mention that he wouldn't have any teething pains the entire day.    

Here's some pictures of Aiden doing some of his favorite things.....

Pushing, pulling and dragging things around.  Bonus points if dragged item has some sort of bucket feature.  

Watering the front yard

Stealing another kid's toy.  He played with this walker for a good 40 minutes even though there were swings near by!?!?!

Hey Mom, wanna go water?
