Pirate Aidan

Oh yeah, Halloween's going to be easy this year..

Chef Bryce

"Come in, Star Command."

After Christmas, you may remember that Aidan was playing Woody from the Toy Story movies all the time, using the cowboy props from the great Dress-up Trunk that Santa brought him. This past week, he's moved on to Buzz Lightyear..
So now, whenever Aidan jumps out of the van, climbs to the top of the stairs, goes from the kitchen to the hallway, or pretty much does anything, we get a little Buzz:
"To Infinity.. and Beyond!"

He's also been walking around the house, prodding the pretend communicator button on his chest, and calling in to Star Command:
"Buzz Lightyear to Star Command. Come in, Star Command. Do you copy?"

Stand back...

A few weeks ago, Mama got Aidan a hooded bath towel that's shaped to look like a dragon..

So now, after bath-time, Aidan runs around the house, roaring like a dragon.
Mama: "Oh no! It's a big scary dragon!"
Aidan: "Oh, it's okay Mama," Aidan says, lifting the hood of his towel, "it's just me."

And occasionally, while he's running and roaring, he'll stop, turn to you and say, "Stand back. I'm going to breath fire!" And then he heaves a big intake of breath and blows a big imaginary fireball into the next room.
