Aidan and I decided to go play a round of putt putt golf last Friday, he was the one who actually decided this, reminding me every few minutes, just to be on the safe side making sure I wouldn't forget. We decided to go right after dinner, it was cute, he finished his dinner so quickly. We got there and walked into the office where Aidan was super excited to see some yellow golf balls and putters, yellow (or as he pronounces it.. lellow) is his favorite color!
I barely had to show him how to use the golf club, he took to it quickly and was fairly impressive for a 4 year old putting away. He always went first and did well, then after I had to tell him that he needs to wait for me to play too, he would finish his turn and stand on the side yelling "yeh Daddy, go Daddy, you can do it!"
All in all Aidan had a great time, we finished the 18 holes and he decided that wasn't enough, he wanted to play again. At $4.50 per person/per game I decided that going to ice cream would be a better option.
At this point in the evening Aidan was having quite the fun kid day! He had already taken a trip to Target to buy his first batman action figure, thanks to a gift card from Grandma Choo Choo! He got to play at a park with his friends Ethan and Alex! We just finished putt putt golf and now Daddy was taking him out for ice cream! This kid was pretty happy and getting very giddy.We headed to the usual ice cream spot and Aidan proudly requested blue sprinkles to the girl behind the window. Sitting on the picnic table enjoying his ice cream he was very smiley and telling his usual "you know what Daddy?... OATMEAL!" jokes! (Aidan's "joke" has been saying oatmeal for some time now, we don't know why but he thinks it's hilarious). Then as we are getting ready to head home he goes up to the service window of the ice cream place, I'm right behind him wondering what he's doing and trying to get him to walk with me to the car, a teenage guy opens the window and looks at Aidan as he laughs and asks the guy if they sell oatmeal! I couldn't stop laughing, seeing as how Aidan had just played a practical joke on the guy! The ice cream place employee just politely smiled and closed the window, Aidan and I headed home and concluded a fun night.

It's fun to read a dad's perspective every once in a while.
I'm still laughing at his Oatmeal stunt! What a little stinker.
He had a blast-as you know.
